Didn't the Wii go against Nintendo from the start as well?

WOW, Im not gonna talk about the rumour, but i am going to point out the fallacy in your misunderstanding of Nintendo strategy for the last 5 years.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
i feel like bookmarking this thread just so that if the tech is indeed in the wii 2 i can throw it back into the face of the nintendo fans that currently don't like the idea but undoubtedly will love the idea if nintendo does release it...

No. It went pro-Nintendo. Pro-innovation and awesome 1st party games. GC was against Nintendo, the Wii was against against Nintendo, so was Nintendo.
And it sold so well for it
Sounds horrible.
Atto Suggests...:
Book - Malazan Book of the Fallen series
Game - Metro Last Light
TV - Deadwood
Music - Forest Swords

The Wii was the first Nintendo game system to go against what Nintendo had done since it's inception into the gaming market. The original NES was a basic system that touted simple controls and simple game mechanics to boot.
All other systems since then (SNES, Virtual Boy, N64, and Cube) have gotten rid of that (even the hand helds got more buttons). They got more complex. If we are looking at what Nintendo has mainly put out in the market then we would have to agree that the Wii and NES are not overall representative of their mission.
Hence the Wii was something new for Nintendo. There was no way of knowing if it was going to be financially viable because nothing like that had entered the market in forever, and everything else in the market like the PS2 was very financially viable. It doesn't have to be called luck because it wasn't a fluke coincidence that so many people flocked to style of the simple Wii. But it was not a standard move for them.
As a side note I can at least agree that it would be more surprising if the other two guys took the Wii route first.
While I don't believe this rumor, the videos are neat and it's a cool idea. Projectors have to come way down in price before any company decides to do this.
