Virtually the same tech from 2006... I don't see any way this thing becomes a major commercial success. Especially with it's price point.
- Price is being announced in 45 minutes. Japanese price =/= American price.digitdaily
- Hmm thought I saw $340 USD or something like thatd_rek
- That was the conversion. Although it wasn't far off.digitdaily

Nintendo always seem to release products that end up being epic successes $$$... so who knows. I'll probably get one if some good games come out on it.

Couldnt possible care less about another Wii. Doesnt matter if it has a screen on the controller, its still a Wii with lame waggle controls and a ton of awful family friendly games. ZZZzzz

ANY LINKS?

They should have released a Super Wii in the meantime. The sales of the original Wii were through the roof and got Nintendo back on the map, and surely they could have upped the graphics and power pretty easily. Instead they waited several years and released an underwhelming new version that has a tablet controller that I can only imagine costs a small FORTUNE if you want a 2nd one, or dare I say a 3rd or 4th.

It looks lame.

looks like something that will sell a fuckload of units.
- I hate to say it but it will. IF your a parent you will most likely bend with the pressure of the holiday season and get one for the kiddies.Aceone

i think this social media/tv thing would be huge. People love live tweeting tv.

gotta be honest - there's a lot of interesting shit going on here. Hopefully they'll have the games.

Anyone have a link to any sort of qualification for the ‘20x more powerful than a Wii’ claim. Just curious to know what that actually means.

Astounding that CoD does not look as good as the PS3, which is 7+ year old hardware.
- and yet the wii destroyed the ps3 in sales. There's no justice.futuremongolian
- Quality of games and game play will always trump hardware. Look at World of Warcraft.aaux

Anyone know where I can watch the replay. Nintendos site says it would be playing again but its not....

Well i got it. its pretty fucking sweet i have to admit

Lame. Its barely as powerful as a PS3 or 360 which are 6-7 years old now. Nintendo is for soccer moms and little babies now. Wake me up with the PS4 comes out.
