Doesnt sound like the title of a new console to me...
Besides, unless Nintendo can revolutionize motion controls to a higher level thaen that of Natal, I think Nintendo will take a more standard approach to their next console...
(BTW, No hate for the Wii, it's a fun console, I just think its been heavily overlooked this gen...)

i think Nintendo will wait until the Wii reaches the 100 million mark....the system is on its way to accomplishing that goal....the only reason they will wait is so that they can show that it can make a successful console....since people kept bringing up the market share of the gamecube and the n64 compared to its competitors in the previous generations of gaming consoles

and i understand that the Wii is already a success, but Nintendo will keep pushing the console until they are fully satisfied with how far the system is able to go

Wii2 will NEVER sell like Wii. Wii was surprise even to Nintendo, no one expected it to get this big, no one. They got lucky once, will it work again? No motion controls are known quantity by now, old guys wont go "Wow Wii 2 i got to have that one". I know it might have different name but you got the point. Wont work again.

Cevapi885087d ago

i was talking about the Wii.....not a Wii 2....if anything it wont be called Wii 2.....Nintendo will come out with some new name...and if they want to be relevant next gen....their new system will have to be HD....

it could be wiii or even more ironic...wwii

I think only reason it has been overlooked was the GPU. PS3 and X360 both have powerful and great GPUs that can do great graphics. Wii is stuck with something else. Doesn't quite do it. Sadly though if next Wii is coming with graphics only compared to X360's power then it will be Wii all over again. Maybe with a little more saturation from big tier developers with power like the X360, but when PS4 and X720 come around in 2012 focus will move back to the high powered machines.

-She would have a power similar to that of an Xbox 360
-It should not be called "Wii 2", but Wii HiFi (in any case the code name leaked)
-It would be very oriented online
-One of the main features is the community
-It would be released in November 2011

Holy F
If it as good as it sounds it might be day one
All those things are what Nintendo Wii lacked with.

Iamback5087d ago

yeah now if it was released in 2006 i would cared but in 2011? lol no

klado5087d ago (Edited 5087d ago )

-She would have a power similar to that of an Xbox 360 = FLOP
-She would have a power similar to that of an Xbox PS3 = Win

-It would be released in November 2011 = Huh!, this is just implying nintendo can't give more further than have been given, is that so, I pass, but again Console are for fun and not for graphics so, it should do well.

So expecting for a super smash brother true next gen with more than 100 characters.

Narutone665087d ago

that Wii is still competing with PS2 and original Xbox from the specs alone.

jay25087d ago

This could be very intreasting.

xc7x5087d ago

i don't see it happening since there's hardly been any N4G articles about it lol. personally i think Nintendo needs to reveal a Wii 2 [HD] for their sake but don't care either way at this point in time.

How Many More Victims, Like Garry's Mod, Will Nintendo's Hurtful Crusade Create?

Hanzala from eXputer: "As Nintendo takes out 20 years' worth of stuff from Garry's Mod, I watch in shock, thinking why it continues to hurt and discourage its fans."

RiseNShine11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

The irony that some of the most disgusting business practices come from companies like Disney or Nintendo, i can't even begin to understand what terrible damage was Garrys Mod making to Nintendo bottom line, imho they're getting pretty nervous about where they're heading in the future, handhelds are no longer something exclusive to Nintendo, from Steam Deck to many others, now you can play the latest games and pay a fraction of the price on Steam sales, so it's up to their exclusives, which just on their own would make hard to justify purchasing a closed overpriced hardware with outrageous price policies (Super Mario Odyssey is still 60 euro 6 years later!), and as a home console they're always underperforming compared to Sony or Xbox.

gold_drake11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

i cam guarantee you, that their exclusives alone is what drives switch sales. they sell in the 10s of millions of copies.

nintendo created their franchises to be sort of nostalgia driven, exclusive only on nintendo.

people will always buy the pkmn games as they always bring in new younger fans amd is family friendly

mario kart, the same thing, mario games in general.

zelda games are system sellers. animal crossing for the casual gamers.

nintendo doesnt need third vame devs essentially. they made sure with the switch and the limitations that they looked more to pc ps and xbox.

its sad, but nintendo is more than fine with what they're doing. they positioned themselves to appeal to the more casual gamers.

but to your point, im not sure why they're doing this rly.

Look at how they handled Nintendo games being streamed or uploaded on YouTube in the past. They killed Yuzu and Citra even when they had nothing to do with ToTK being leaked, not to mention it was basically unplayable on emulation the week it was leaked. Smash Bros tournament, that was fairly recent. They shut down their online services without any care for purchases made. I bought a switch after skipping their last 2 consoles and handhelds but I don't plan on buying anything Nintendo in the future. They take things to the extremes, they legitimately hate their fans. They're honestly right up there with the likes of Acti, EA, and Ubi, only difference is that they disguise themselves as being family friendly all the while being shady.

Hanzala from eXputer: "The cruel hammer of Nintendo has fallen. Farewell, 3DS and Wii U, you surely brightened my life and many others; you won't be forgotten."
