“New Nintendo Console in 2011 More Like Xbox 360 & PS3”

Considering the first failings of Sony and their PS3, as well as the recent failings of XBOX 360, the only ones who win are those with Wii, if you're a perfection freak.

I was taught bigger is never always better...and Nintendo is giving the gamer what is demanded...

HD was not in Wii because they wanted to bring the old codgers to this time. It worked.

But then, Nintendo delivers late so they can see what mess a feature has done and one-up it. HD? Just look how it dragged the others around.

DVD? Blu-Ray? Those don't belong on a console, in my opinion. Consoles are for games alone.

Lastly, any remarkers of 360 should Google Red Ring of Death, and Pro-PS3 fanboys should just get off the stage. They hide the fact they have more money than Joe User.

360 fail the most anyway.remember need 3 disc for FFXIII who give a f about wii anyway.

Nintendo always had superior technology in the 8 bit, 16 bit , 32 bit, and PS2 generations. Learn some history.

I'm homosexual and I must say that I'm glad that Nintendo adopted a "gay friendly" attitude with the Wii Console. Me and all of my homosexual friends have fun playing the Nintendo exclusive titles of Wii.

I'm not a fans of home consoles anymore, I like the DS and the PSP, a lot of good games, easier to hack and of course portables, I think that staying in your house and play that Wii crap is a big waste of time...

WII is already faill so the next one will fail tow. Nintendo has no chance against xbox or playstation. byebye kidz

Yes, Nintendo will come out with something that can compete against the Xbox 360, and PS3. By the time that happens. Microsoft and Ps3 will already have develop a prototype for their newer console. Sad to say, but even if Nintendo turns their focus to casual gamers. They still won't be able to compete against the other two system when it comes to casual gaming.

Bee Willy Bong~!!

I was happy until I heard about that interest in Project Natal.

-_-; damnit it nintendo, make a system that will actually have games worth playing eh?

Pic totally unrelated, amirtie?

The anti-Nintendo vibes here are hilarious. They keep ranting on how they keep failing when they are the company who makes the most money with both the Wii and the DS.

One thing Nintendo tops above Sony and Microsoft is their marketing ability. Ever since the Virtual Boy disaster they seem to know how to keep themselves afloat and make significant profits. Even with lackluster systems like the Gamecube, they were able to make significant headway to keep producing and making their target market happy. As long as they have those marketers they will never die. Even if the its next-gen consoles has the weakest performance it will still sell plenty and make money.

That is the power of Nintendo. They will find a way.

I liked my wii and I've enjoyed every game I've played on it. @~@ I mean it was basically $300 something cheaper than the other systems when it was first released and it had some decent titles along with a storm of crappy games that hardly sold. It did have some good games though. Nintendo was honestly very smart with the wii. Had they competed and made a generic console like the other two they would have done bad. If we recall the gamecube was third place in the last generation for sales and if they released another system similar to the others I can confidently say it would have been the same case. The motion sensor attracted tons of people who normally wouldn't even consider a console while also providing some good/interesting titles for fans of nintendo. Now that the wii is dieing down it only makes sense to release a new system. I'd prefer if they kept the remote myself, not for the motion sensing, but because I liked the feel of being able to keep my hands apart and move them around. I have a 360 as well, I played basically all the rpg-ish games on it,enjoying them thoroughly, and no shooters because generic shooters are what I hate most about current gaming ;3;

what is ps3 "coming back" with? ratchet and clank? AHA ok uncharted looks good though, but what? 1 more of the list of 6 decent games?

how is 360 failing? this red ring thing just NOW becoming news?

eh heh heh. you asians and your sonys. and never-take-care-of-yourself others (honestly, take a bath and PLEEEEEASE! PLEASE JUST STOP EATING!!!). and yeah there are still too many like that for the 360 still, but DEFINITELY not as many.

Is a handheld still a console?
3DS.

This new console will be known as the Wii-Wii.

as always, the comments of a console topic post are more interesting than the original post itself

Interesting except by 2011, designs for a ps4 and xbox whatevertheyregonnacallit will be out. Nintendo will still be behind in the times.

A little too late imo.

But I can't help but cream my pants at the thought of Zelda HD.

Nintendo should do the Sega and just get the hell out of the hardware console business.

People buy Nintendo consoles just to play Nintendo IPs and minigames.

I'd say let Nintendo license the Wiimote technology to Sony and Microsoft, then just become a publisher for the Nth iteration of Mario and Zelda.

Because if I were a 3rd party publisher -- even a publisher of shovelware -- I would still be asking "Okay, Nintendo, you have the install base, but what's up with your attach rates? Wii owners don't buy games!"

If it continues to market itself as a casual's toy then boy they will face some stiff competition from the makers of Polystation and Funstation. Can't beat 1,000 games in one, all the more if they have the ORIGINAL mario, not the latest 3d but simplistic tard iteration of it.

ITT people who misinterpret things constantly.

The Wii's a fantastic console if you have friends. It's like the first time someone could bring a console to a New Years' party without getting blank stares. The same folks who shrugged when asked if they wanted to try a game of Soul Calibur are the very ones who squeal with delight when you bust out Brawl. Mario Strikers Charged didn't get rave reviews, but put it in the hands of a group of friends who are slightly inebriated and even the one whose only experience with video games happens to be her brother's old Tetris will have a great time.

I'm wondering what angle Nintendo is trying this time. If they really are sticking to convention, it'd be in their interest to revitalize the sort of fantastic third party support they had for the SNES. The DS feels like it has a more eclectic offering of games than the Wii, which I find just a bit odd.

The next Wii HD needs more cutting edge features to compete with the ps3 booby tilt like new motion controllers Tenga flip Wii.

i dont haves one i hads one but i dont currently haves one. (that s was annoying by the way)

My comments don't seem to get through, maybe because they're too long, so I'l try and devide them up instead: To anyone badmouthing Nintendo and the Wii, get bent! The Wii is a wondeful console, with a huge-ass gamebase of old games from NES, SNES, and N64, not to mention you can play GC games on it, aswell as the new Wii games! And I have to have my dose of Mario and Zelda. The majority of games that come for the PS3 and/or XBox 360 also come out for the PC, so I can get them there. There are offcourse exceptions, and that list is growing, so I'l most likely get both consoles later, since I'm the type that has to have it all, and I love my PS2 aswell, but the Wii has some brilliant games and innovations in imo, and is defenitely the best party-console! ^^ Even some of my PS3 fanboy friends agree on that. You ever tried playing multiplayer on Rayman Raving Rabbids with a bunch of slightly alcohol-induced people in a jolly mood? It's the shit! Comic crazyness ensue! ^^

And for you PS3 and XBox 360 fanboys, FYI, in case you haven't noticed the Wii is dominating the console sales market hard! Not because of minigames, but because Nintendo are pouring out games for all the people Sony and Microsoft don't care about, like the people that usually don't play games, not to mention they have alot more kids games than the rest. Couple that with the suppreme backwards compatability and library, and it's innovative controls, and Mario and Zelda for the hardcore fans, and you have a great console! As mentioned, simple and fun!

I feel like this jap just heard it would have more modern competitive specs and thought "lol so more ps3 and 360."
