well yeah, by the time theres a wii HD, the competition will have nintendo's differentiation: motion controls.

Um no, the differentiation is the software.

could be for you, but not for the consumer who buys the wii for motion controls.

That only goes so far. Without a killer app, those won't be enough. We didn't buy the Wii because of the controls, but because of the games that could be played with those controls.

A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

well the name is bad enough....
hope they come up with a nice name for console and not Wii HD... it would be tedious if we call it that all the time...

This makes sense. The next generation of Nintendo console will also need a better storage solution and a better on-line experience. This is not rocket science -- it is what everyone knows.

I am Mario.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

well , i agree in some sense if its the same hardware but being upscaled into HD then thats really boring, if its a better hardware then thats another story.

Considering that Square Enix really hasn't done much with Wii, Wii HD wouldn't be all that boring for them.
