^ E3 2011: Nintendo announces Wii HD! But it won't come out until Holiday 2012. Zelda Wii will be delayed for Wii HD, and the current Wii library will completely dry up leaving us with nothing to play until then. It's happened before . . . *sigh*

I know they are focusing entirely on 3DS right now, and I can't blame them, if it is the successor to the best selling system of all time, but c'mon! Throw Wii owners a bone!

Remember when the 3DS was announced and I said: Nintendo has always wanted to do a 3D system. They've achieved this now. What if this is the one and only focus now. I know it's far fetched, but seeing a year's worth of nothing ahead of us for the Wii... it's kinda making me think...

I wouldn't be against it. I'm tired of Nintendo's games being split across two platforms, especially at current system prices. Pick one and be done with it. They'd have a hell of a time trying to recreate Wii's success in the console market again next-gen anyway, and going HD would significantly raise their development costs, which is something Nintendo has been avoiding for years. Going handheld exclusive would solve those issues. We'll see.

Funny thing about Nintendo.

They can go from Zero to Hero just by localizing some games.

I am talking about Last Story, Xenoblade, Zangenki, Fatal Frame

and the very best Captain Rainbow.

It's not so crazy as it first seems.  This whole business (gaming and tech) has changed so much in the last 5 years, who knows where it will end up?

What Agnates said I agree with, which makes sense since what he said is what he and I have been going on about for months now (as it pertains to Nintendo's Wii release strategy and our hopes for it).

I can't help but think that Nintendo is leaning off the Wii for the first half of the year -- I mean $50 spent on a Wii game is $50 less you have for buying a 3DS -- might also explain the flurry of late year hits we got from Nintendo last year - Kirby, Metroid, DK - they were clearing the plate for the 3DS launch window.
