This is where the shit hits the fan. And I mean not just a blotch but a whole bucket and this fan is really small. No way in hell is it going to be that early, and this crazy. Not to mention a lot of people are well into supporting the Wii up until the end of 2010 with games including Nintendo.

Blu-ray? 1080p screen resolution? Holy shit. I doubt this is true though if it's a second Wii, it's possible if it's something like the PS3 slim or DSi, but it's WAY too early for Wii 2.

Besides, didn't Iwata say that DS2 and Wii2 won't see the light of the day until 2011? :/ The blu-ray part is bull.

This can't be true. I highly doubt the second Wii would be able to play Blu-Ray discs.

If anyone wants a laugh head over to Neogaf's topic on this. Yes I lurk there way too much but good lord is it fun.

Someone got into the update system who is abusing it just a little too much?

Doubt it would happen IMO even though it would be awesome!

Entirely possible, given that we're in mid-fall and the boredom from being cooped up inside during inclement weather has everyone suffering cabin fever.

I'm certain this is a hoax. Hopefully I'm wrong, but this has got to be a hoax.

The Zelda pic in the NeoGAF thread was posted by TSA... it might be the real deal.

JUICY ARE LURKER?! Kidding dude but really now does it matter if TSA posted it? If so then...damn.
 
Re: Unconfirmed: Second Wii iteration to possibly hit in Q3 2010: Possible Blu-Ray, 1

Rumors are rumors. That cant be true, as MS and Sony said they are going to stay in with their current systems for as long as they can. Nintendo will probably do the same (they did that with the game boy)
 
Re: Unconfirmed: Second Wii iteration to possibly hit in Q3 2010: Possible Blu-Ray, 1

Blu-Ray?

Why Blu-Ray? Why not just DVDs?

This sounds pretty fake. Nintendo releasing a version 2 of a console? They should be working on a new console.

Even if it is true, I doubt it's Wii 2, but rather an enhanced Wii.

Satoru Iwata's words>TSA's.
 
Re: Unconfirmed: Second Wii iteration to possibly hit in Q3 2010: Possible Blu-Ray, 1

So wait do you guys lurk or are you posters on Gaf? Cause I have no idea what the hell is the deal with TSA.

I just browsed through the thread, and all the post was, was a picture and him saying "I can wish...". That's it. No one there thought much of the picture--a few more commented on how cool it would be, but no one was treating it as some sort of actual teaser or anything. Thus, as far as I can see, that Zelda thing was just some artwork made by a fan that he had posted, and that's it--nothing serious or anything.

In summary... NeoGAF thought absolutely nothing of it, it is nothing, stop taking posts out of context and blowing them out of proportion, etc.

Holy hell....I mean, the Wii just got a $50 price drop for cryin' out loud. If this is gonna come out, or any new console by Nintendo for that matter, I think it's gonna be awhile. It honestly feels the Wii hasn't been around that long either.
 
Re: Unconfirmed: Second Wii iteration to possibly hit in Q3 2010: Possible Blu-Ray, 1

Haha looks like Nintendo will be trying to compete with PS3, just like the XBox is.
 
Re: Unconfirmed: Second Wii iteration to possibly hit in Q3 2010: Possible Blu-Ray, 1

I call BS on this statement already. Sounds too good to be true, hell, we didn't even reach the 5 year mark for the Wii yet. Even the Gamecube got that before the Wii took over.

Also, why Blu-ray? and if this console trading business is going to be true, what happens to all those games I downloaded off the Wii Shop Channel? If that's the case, I'm going to still hold onto my regular Wii, I spent a lot of money downloading VC and WiiWare games as it is.

It's a bit confusing..

Didn't the PS3 try to directly compete with the Wii at a time? What's so good about Blu-Ray?

They should make an in-console recorder if they're going to upgrade the Wii.
