It does make a fair bit of sense actually...

Quote:
* The Wii2 system will feature a Blu-Ray drive with a secondary aim of stopping piracy
* 1080P and lower resolutions will be supported, for Blu-ray movies and games
* The release date is scheduled for third quarter of 2010
* The release will be worldwide and on the same day for all countries
* A scheme will be available in which it is possible to trade in the original Wii for a cheaper price on the new Wii 2

:lol:

I think Nintendo finally recognise just how pirated Wii/DS games are, the Wii is insanely easy to mod, no tools needed

Until the games aren't gimmicky I won't get one

Yip, I personally don't know anyone who still actually plays their Wii anymore, and the women I know who own them all say the same thing about 'getting back into Wii Fit' - that's about as likely as me going down the gym :roll:

Mine's been unplugged for almost 2 years, might fire it back up soon once me copy of Zelda arrives :twisted:

I don't think we've ever played our Wii after christmas morning. It's too boring. And something else that rhymes with that...ah - Snoring. :P

I don't get any time to play on the Wii but the kids are always on it. Even Mrs. V has the occasional go.

Typical. We find this out just after we've bought a Wii.

Presumably this is to give Wii 2 some purpose after the 3 games worth buying have been released and played to death...
Mariokart wii 2
A Mario platformer of some description
Zelda and the airy fairy quest name.

That's what's put me off TBH. I have played on Wiis, they're ok but I need a better graphics experience.

Now, have I been dreaming this, or will PS3 bypass the need for a Wii early next year by bringing out their own version of motion gaming? If so, well, the PS3 graphics will win hands down IMO.
