Nintendo Wii 2: Release date and what’s needed in the upgrade

Nintendo Wii 2: Release date and what’s needed in the upgrade

By: Daniel Chubb | January 6, 2009 | 203 Comments

While many gamers would debate how much of a surprise the recent Nintendo success is, we see the Wii as a product that managed to tap into an audience that Sony and Microsoft never managed to reach.

Nintendo are selling Wii’s faster than stores can stock them and some may believe that they have no need to replace the Wii just yet, but not everyone has this view and Game Player have the view that Wii 1.5 / 2 will be coming in 2010.

Nintendo have shown with the DS and Gameboy that they like to tweak their products with updated versions for more innovation. The existing Wii is well behind the PS3 and Xbox 360 when it comes to hardware, so just what is needed in Wii 2?

Wii 2 will certainly need more high definition support and even support for DVD and more memory is welcomed, but what would you like to see added to the next Wii? Let’s know in the comments.

Also is Game Player on the mark for a 2010 release date, what’s your expectations? Most of this will depend on Wii 2 / 1.5 being an upgrade or an entirely new console.

    And the point of this article is???

    I expect the ALL consoles will release in the same year.

    Sony learned it’s leason and M$ can’t afford to be wrong again (RROD, No standard HD, no wifi built-in).

    But the WII will need to be HD and at least support Blu-Ray if not offer a huge hard drive.

    The Xbox720/Phoenix will also have a large hard drive. If they don’t support Blu-Ray as a format they have two options. Make their own format or have multiple DVD’s. You know, install the game from one or two dvd and play with the third.

    The PS4 (and there will be one) will be blu-ray compatable upto the 1TB blue ray disc. and more memory. I am thinking at least 4GB.

    Both Sony and M$ need to have at least 4GB in RAM in order to give the developers the freedom that they need.

    Nintendo are already doing the upgrades, with the improvements on the motion remote coming in 2009, and periphericals like Wii Fit. Also a better online community was promised.

    As for the next console, I don`t see Nintendo rushing for it. Developers seems to be understanding just now how to make games for the Wii. Plus, charts show that older plataforms, like the PS2, still sell well.

    And since 2008 was the year the 360 turned a profitable machine, and the PS3 is still to reach the breakeven… I don’t expect any new console before 2011/2012. Companies need time to extract all the possible revenue from the present systems.

    The 2010 is off a year. Nintendo will release the Wii’s successor in 2011, FIVE years after its debut. Take a look at the previous Nintendo systems, and decide for yourself: NES (nationwide): 1986, SNES: 1991, Nintendo 64: 1996, GameCube: 2001, Wii: 2006, next system: 2011- see a pattern?

    Also, the Wii now has DVD support- they just don’t want it to play DVD movies just yet- look for that later this year, but it does NOT have HIGH DEFINITION DVD- look for that in the next system in 2011, after more than 50% of homes have HD.

    Nintendo knows what they are doing, it’s not a fluke they are on their 5th generation- an industry first! They’ve been at this almost 30 years, they’ll be around in the 2010′s with the successor to the Wii, but don’t look for it to be a Wii clone, Nintendo is hard at work designing a system that will make the Wii’s controls seem dated!

  • R Eddy

    I doubt we’ll see a true Wii 2 (or whatever they call it) until 2012…..and I’ve no idea what that will involve.

    I would say late 2009/2010 could see a tweaked version of the current Wii released…. the kind of uprgrade we saw from the original DS to DS Lite.

    They’ll make it slightly smaller (and remove all but 1 GC port), increase memory for storage (nothing major..maybe 4 GB), maybe a HDMI port and upscaler (they may make it slightly more powerful so it can display in true 720p instead..but don’t expect games with better textures..it’ll just be to smooth out the jaggies on standard Wii software), Wii Motion Plus built into the controller and perhaps they’ll make the nunchuk wireless.

    If there is a Wii 2, it should definitely have a DVD and Blu Ray player, and a bigger hard drive so it can compete with the other systems that will be coming out. Also we should see improvements in the infrared sensor bar and wiimotes so it will recognize smaller motions more easily and accurately.
    Before any new versions of the Wii come out, I anticipate that there will be more highly interactive games with peripherals due to the success of the Wii fit.

  • http://www.squidoo.com/wiiplaydvds wiidvdplay

    Its more likely there will not be a wii 2. I think they are more likely to just come up with an upgrade sometime in 2009. Now on the other had the nintendo has been releasing new consoles every 5 years for like 30 years. If they keep following the pattern the next system will be out 2011. We should expect it to be called something else. After all they never came out with gamecube 2. Man can’t wait for 5th generation gaming. The next console better be up in par in graphics as xbox and playstation are.

  • matt

    i think that nintendo should get rid the the stupid friend codes and make it more like the 360. They should just let people make there own names and people can add them by there name not some dumb code that they give u

  • wiiboy101

    Well, there are some features that I think should be added to the new console that is kind has the same features of a Wii.

    Keep the motion sensing.
    Allow 1080 pixel support.
    Keep backward compatibility.
    Hard drive (Definite)
    A channel to download movies, songs, etc.
    Built-in Wifi.
    Better 3rd party support.
    Have more controllers.
    Keep the Mii Channel.
    Microphone in the Wiimote.
    Eliminate friend codes (Retarded)
    Cooler Design
    Play DS games.

  • Joshiro

    I’m a HUGE nintendo fan owning a gameboy, gamecube and DS. but i did not buy the Wii and chose an Xbox 360 instead. this is because i wasn’t happy with the graphics of the Wii, the fact that it lacks home media, and especially the Wii remote and the way most games are played. i MUCH rather prefer the classic joystick over the Wii remote. but it cannot be denied, the game titles and exclusive characters for Nintendo ROCK!!! i really wish to get the next gen on nintendo over that of microsoft and sony because im missing my favourite characters like Link, Samus, Fox and Mario

  • Anthony

    I think that one of the best features would be more memory and actual open world games. If you don’t know what that is Shaun White: snowboarding for x-box360 or PS3 is a good example. Also, more definition in the motion sensing. Right now, the wrist flick is the bast way, but I’m looking for the need of a full arm swing.

  • me

    you know, wii´s graphics ain´t that bad, if you´ve ever played star wars rogue squadron-rebel strike you´d see wii is capable of A FREAKING LOT MORE, indeed its capabilities don´t match those of ps3, so that should be matched in the wii2 along with getting rid of those stupid friend codes. if they should improve something more, i think that would be the wiimote: have the motion plus built in on both wiimote and nunchuck, and the nunchuck should also have rumble and be wireless. also the controllers should be able to be connected to the wii for charging and lastly we should be able to take music from our ipods or cds and put them directly on the wii. Oh and nintendo should make more games like metroid, rogue squad and no more heroes WITHOUT leaving behind their crapy coking mama and those kind of stuff

  • kelokera

    ok… there are a few things you need to know before talk… When we compare a console to other “graphically” and the HD is used to say that one console can do more than other, is CORRECT!!! because if a console can’t handle a good frame rate and a sort of effects and filters at a hight resolution, them that console can’t do “HD graphics”, but can handle “SD graphics”… About the Wii doing whatever the PS3 at 480? I don’t think so… the chip inside the Wii can be compared with a GeForce 2… and I’m serious on this!!!! I read a article from a developer, and he explain what they can or can’t do on the Wii… and the original XBOX is way better than the Wii when it comes to graphics.

    About the “Innovations” is true that the wimote is fun… but you can’t play all with it… or… can you do a HADOKEN?? (just a joke) I buy a Wii when it comes out… and it was fun!!! but I’m a SERIOUS player… Wii Sports was great… and metroid… but I need a real console… about the way I control it? well I’ve been doing it the same way for more than 20 years… I’ll not die if I keep it that way.

    I own a PS3, sell my Wii… but I keep my original NES… I know graphics are not the big deal when you look at fun…but it helps a loot!!! fun is about big effects and a loot of characters on screen at the same time… lights, particles, etc… ant the Wii can’t do it… well it can… but not the way I want…

  • JS

    It was my understanding that the NES was released in the US in 1985.

  • Captin NDS 23

    I think the only thing that the next Nintendo system needs is to upgrade the graphics so that they are at least on par with the XBox 360 or better. The set up they have for the Wii is great and they shouldn’t change a thing except for the graphics and the ability to play DVD, MP3′s as well as CD’s. Forget Blue-Ray and just update the graphics card or else they will miss out on some more great games like Resident Evil 6 or better. Also a bigger hard drive wouldn’t hurt either.

  • Kees

    Wii 2 HAS to be HD. this is 2010/11 where we talk about people so Nintendo has the money to move to the 21th century! you can get an HD cable at walmart but the wii 2 has to included in it (sorry of my inglish is weird).
    also the memory is not that big at the wii. sure you can buy an sd cart, but the wii2 has to get minus 6000 blocks memory. Sound is good but it can’t be good enough though.

  • Josh

    i agree, the social and adding people side of the Wii is terrible compared to PS3 and 360 where you just click and add. Plus the sending of messages takes an age to arrive, making it easier to send a text. that needs updating.

    Though for 5th gen consoles, personally, the PS3 ability to access the menu while in game is awesome (not sure if 360 can do this) and background dl should be a requirement so we can play games while dl extras xD

    Just what i want to see in all the consoles…

  • Jay

    FAIL! The NES was released on October 18, 1985 along with Super Mario Bros. not 1986. C’mon, how can you forget Mario Bros.?

  • Jay

    They have to make a Wii 2 (I assume the name is pending, we don’t want to make a Play[by yourself]Station trend here)cause there are so many thing that the Wii could have done with the technology at hand back in ’06 and they kicked the crap out of PS3 and the Xbox 3-sh**ty in their opening year with inferior technology. If they made a sequel, it has the potential to be just awe-inspiring and set the bar even higher between Sony and Microsoft

  • tggg

    remember guitar hero on tour series, and how the developers used some sort of “trick” to push more pixles into the game? well, if the big-n can figure out a way to do somthing along those lines, i’m sure that the game’s graphics on the current wii console will be at leat 10% better

    (yea, im a nintendo fanboy,but the ps3 rox, too)

  • evan

    more graphics and definetally more games and the ability to play wii 1 games on it. it also needs some kind of kick something that makes it really interesting to buy wheather it be better online contact or more free shop stuff. this needs something that makes it special. definately a gears of war or a new halo for this new system.

  • jacob saddler

    I think the wii 2 should have better graphics, have a removable hard drive, and play dvd’s and cd’s

  • Fran

    Ability to eliminate unnecessary chat & movement between workouts selections. To be able to select and customize workout routines to flow through without interruption would allow a 30 min. workout to be completed to 35 min. rather than sometimes nearly an hour. Example would be to select 10 or more yoga poses that would run consecutive to complete a workout routine without having to quit, find & select each one or mix yoga with strength or balance. Additionally if the system could recommend a well-balanced order to do the poses for maximum benefit. Although spectacular graphics could add to the fun, a time-wise custom routine would be a great benefit to those of us with more interest in the fitness benefit of the program.

  • jon

    no! there totally going to change the look of it. Its going to have a detachable DS have more memory and more and better controlers to use

  • ps3 is for turds :)

    The wii kinda has an Hard drive it has an sd card slot and with the latest menue updade sdhc…Up to 32gb and in the future possibly more! HDMI would be nice and blue ray.

  • http://google.com/gmail Kevin N.

    I think that the wii 2 should have wireless wifi without using the internet connection like the DS. It would be a pain in the neck using internet connection and it would take to long. I also think that the wii 2′s sensor bar should be the whole system because it would not be so irratating aiming at the screen and it woudn’t need a plug in sesor bar. It should be portable and I hope you could play all types of wii games and watch movies on it. I hope that all of my ideas are used. PS: Good luck making the system your fan, Kevin N.

  • puppybone

    It has to play all the original Wii games, and it should upscale them to 1080p, so all the old ones look as good on an HDTV as the new ones do. Also, the graphics should be on par with current HD game systems, and the nunchuk should be wireless. The balance boards should be upgraded to allow for multiple players to use one in games like Shaun White Snowboarding, instead of only allowing one player to use one, and they should be available without a game included. It should play CD’s & DVD’s, and have a cartridge slot for GameBoy Advance games, as well as a built-in webcam & mic.

    As for the games, Nintendo needs to be alot more strict about making sure they’re free of bugs and other symptoms of shoddy programming before they allow them to ship. The majority of current third-party Wii games are akin to the majority of current budget-priced PC games. Full of bugs and so utterly horrible that they should all be recalled. This should never have been allowed to happen to the Wii, and it should never be allowed to happen to the next one. The Nintendo seal of quality used to guarantee a quality game, but sadly that isn’t the case with this generation.

    Also, all the games should be playable with or without the motion controls, and with your choice of Wii controllers. These should include the remote, the nunchuk, the classic controller, and the balance board. You should also be able to use any controller for NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube, or PC, and have the ability to plug in any GameBoy or DS system and use it for a controller as well. The controller for the VirtualBoy should be an optional controller too, and you should be able to use the controller for any other system with an adapter. It should also support mice & keyboards.

    And just to make it absolutely irresistable to anyone and everyone, it should support 3D enabled monitors and have an optional accessory built to the original design specs for the VirtualBoy, so it can play all the red & black VB games in addition to the full color VB games that Gunpei Yokoi intended. Plus it should support multiple monitors and touch screens, so it can play any DS or DSI game to boot. The next Wii should be the ultimate Nintendo game player, and the be-all/end-all of Nintendo consoles. Even if it cost more than the PS3 did at launch, it would be worth it!

  • jacob

    i think the wii is a pretty good system but if they do come out with a new one it should have better games that consist of more shooting games. :)

  • monners

    nintendo is not about graphics or memory, thats what microsoft and playstation do and thats why they are not doing so well now, because they are eaxactly the same exept for graphs and memory. so i think the nintendo 2 will be a suprise for everyone because that is what nintendo does, and it works. the nintendo 2 will come out in 2010, the xbox 720/pheonix will come out in 2011 and the ps4 in 2012.

  • wowWiiwow

    Ok wow Wii better have some new stuff like to make you actually in the game. The soccer games reek and they better let the old controllers work on the new ones cuz i like those. Plus it should def put you more like “in the game”

  • Freak

    I think the wii 2 will be a zombie with nunchucks that will take over the world.

  • Andre

    here are my predictions. The PSP 4000/PSP2 will come out before christmas time 2009. Then Apple will make a gaming system after they a 2nd generation iPhone 3G S, which will be sometime in February. Now we are at February 2010, Apple makes the 3rd generation iPhone 3G S, and a 2nd generation Gaming system in August 2010. And then around December 2010, apple is going to release a portable computer, not a laptop, that is about palm sized and touchscreen. It will run Mac and Windows and you just transfer all your computer games onto the “Palm-puter” and play your games from there. 2011. Microsoft has already released a new OS and it runs any type of discs with a 128GB Drive. The screen is an LED and has built in speakers. The gaming system will be a motion activated controller with a built in microphone for in game sounds. The week after the 720 debuted, they will release a handheld version of the 360. This all happens before June 2011. July 4th 2011, The PS4 will debut with the iPhone **4G**, yes there will be a new mobile generation, which is the thickness of hard paper, about 0.76 inch. Also apple will release the gaming system G(or any other letter).
    As you see apple has been working on a gaming system since the iPhone debuted, no one believed them since they made mostly office electronics like notebooks, lap tops, iMacs, iphones, and ipods. The ipods were carried on as a kid item so now people are starting to believe that there is a possible Apple gaming system.
    2012-Barrack Obama loses the election to a women who fought with cancer at the age of 12. there is also going to be a new type of music. Microsoft will crash and give out items up yo 70% off. So i would save up my money for September 17th 2012, for you can get an original xbox 720 for about 200$, or a touch screen phone that has an OS on it for 199$
    Thank you for letting me explain what will happen up to 2012

  • Josh

    I can really see Nazi Zombies be its own game, not like 60 dollars but maybe 30 when it somes out. i mean face it its the most addictive and fun mini game in USA right now. it can start with some 15-20 maps, then buy additional map packs at like a best buy like 5 new maps for 9.99.

  • eduardo the samurai toaster

    DOUBLE FAIL. And the SNES was released in japan on November 21, 1990.

  • lzztopz

    i completly agree i have a wii and its so anoying the fact you add a 12 digit code and then your friend adds one couldent it just send a letter rather than not knowing unless by phone?

  • Alex.

    wiiboy dude shutup all three systems are “NEXT GEN” its just that the 360/ps3 are graphics oriented and the wii is innovation oriented. this is a post about a wii sequel so shutup about what system is good or not, OK? oh and “HD GRAPHICS” is real you know…HD simply states that the native playable resolution is that of 1440×900 or 1360×768 or something around those. hopefully with anti-aliasing.

  • http://cartoonnetwok.com jack

    I think wwi 2 needs better internet connection more hardcore games, definately bettter graphics. i think the console sholud look a lot like wii mixed with ps3. If they could do that i would buy it.

  • moderator and ceo of nintendo corp

    i would like to say the actual tralse date is othe 14.4.10

  • crystal

    nintendo has come out with some cool stuff in the past, love mario cart but i think the wii 2 should only be an installible upgrade so that people can purchase new games and keep their wii games as well, if they own this system. as for me, i’m pretty happy with my super nintendo system, as it is already paid for and the games are cheap and easy to find in my town, plus the fact i don’t need a different controller with every game. but thats just me, and everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

    that would still make the console five years after >.>

  • Crapburger

    Me too!

  • http://vad.com umm

    i think that nintendo should make more like a 360 or ps3. with better graphics and more of a game choice.

  • http://YouTube.com/bryan770 Bryan

    I want to see the wii have a wireless headset to talk to other gamers online like the ps3 and 360 have

  • P.J.

    I hope the wii 2 will have these things for wii sports.

    Clay Courts for Tennis

    Higher experienced computers for tennis

    More control in baseball(throwing to bases, base running,etc.)

    More choice in making Miis

    Hi-Definition

    More wii channels, such as ESPN

    After you choose a mii for a activity, you can go back if you make a mistake(right now it goes all the way back to the main menu

    uniforms for sports

    more of a body on miis, legs, arms, etc.

  • travis

    the wii 2 should be able to listened to music like the Xbox 360

  • travis

    the wii 2 should me able to download your own music Like the Xbox 360 can.
    And maybe when your playing video games you can Listen to it

  • omar shafiq

    the wii 2 will need a larger wifi chip. the current wiis wifi chip is only 1 inch by 1 inch. the xbox is hardrive is 3/5 a wifi chip

  • Jan Brady

    Head Tracking would be bad ass

  • theevil

    i think another feature they could put into the wii is some more wii to ds interactivity!!!
    though this would probably require a new ds but i think it would be worth it!!
    also i would like to see a dsi update that allows the dsi to download virtual console games from a liked wii, i dont understand why nintendo didn’t do this in the first place!!!

  • Name is unique

    If the wii2 will come out there will have to be motion censors instead of controllers and the is because during the video game xpo e3 2009 microsoft deliverd a sneak peak that frightend nintendo and it was project natal wich had motion cencor so you could be the controller itself (ex.you punch and the game punches). If the wii2 comes out after the realese of natal with no motion cencors nintendo will fall.

  • 55joemack

    all of these people seem so worried about blu-ray and hard-drives and shit
    the wii has neither and sells more than the the 360 and the ps3
    so…
    obviously that doesn’t matter TOO much, it does but not as much as you all think.
    it’s all about the game play man i’m tellin ya

  • ERRNY

    on wii shop you should have game cube also,have some glasses to make you seem as if your in the game or make it 3d to come out the screen

  • Limeshack

    I think the next-gen Wii should have two disk drives; one for wii2 and gamecube games, one for dvd/blu-ray and music CDs. and it should have a slot somewhere on it where you can charge the wiimotes and stuff when they are plugged into it, so you dont have to buy batteries or a charger…
    And I agree about the wireless nunchuck that would be awesome XD

  • X

    wii 2 should support all game that xbox and ps3 can . like halo 3. call of duty 5 . etc etc

  • trueGamer

    hey i own a wii, and i’m a nintendo die-hard, and people like me are dying. When the wii came out, it was great. Metriod, Link, Brawl, the new Animal Crossing. great games. but thats basically where it ends. the wii 2 NEEDS IN ORDER TO STAY WITH, IF NOT PASS, SONY AND MS, no friend codes, more cuztomizable miis, perhaps a MII WORLD, larger memory to play youtube and games faster, built in motion plus,cpu compatibility, etc. o yah an waaaaay better graphix

  • Ha

    Wii=fun
    Xbox 360=gaming
    PS3=graphics

  • Tkoblivion

    the thing is nintendo has to sign a contract with those developers for them to get the games. and halo is created by a microsoft sub-company making the Xbox the only console to have it.

  • jeremy

    That isnt up to the system creators its up to the game designers like haronix and EA Games

  • coolkid

    i totally agree with you. nintendo needs to update the mii channel. i hate how much longer motion plus makes the wiimote, and yes, i have lots of friends who dont even like 2 play online on wii due to all the friend code swapping, and all the individual game code swapping…i say a username just like on xbox.

  • coolkid

    omg, i agree w u on the color thing. when wii was first advertised for online, it showed it in a great variety of color. when it comes out…theres only white. also, the wii shop channel sucks. they need 2 make it a lot better.

  • http://teamxs.tk noob

    I think they should allow co-op campaign online with our friends.

  • James Sorensen

    The thing that will make the wii 2 most popular would, be a new controller. Although it may seem pointless, a new controller that does not need to be held (possibly strapped to your arms or legs), and has a wide range of frequency could really make a game much easier to control as if it were real.

  • James Sorensen

    Also online co-op with others could really make a difference. But, unlike the ps2 which requires an ethernet adapter, the wii 2 should allow anyone with just the console to access online play

  • James Sorensen

    If the wii was able to work/turn on without a power cable then you would probably be able to put the wii almost any where

  • James Sorensen

    What if the Wii 2 had 3-D glasses so where the game would just pop up in front of you kinda like a simulation

  • menotyou

    me too lol… a detachable ds… is it going to come with it…? haha

  • Anthony

    well, if the wii 2 could support xbox360 and ps3 games, how would there be order. see if there was a console (codenamed “super console”) that could support every video game from every system, there would be no more exclusives that make a console famous, and if super console could support every game, people would simply buy that instead of other consoles that only support games from their own console. therefore microsoft and sony would be bankrupt, and nintendo would be rich. that also means that companies that make exclusives will have to shut down too. and there would hardly be decent games left. the end

  • Brandon

    I would like to see a gamer score you know like PS3 has and Xbox the wii could call it wii Achive and an online set up like xbox, it is hard to make friends on the wii when you cant talk to anybody. And a gamer tag like xbox and ps3 nintendo needs to have a chanel on wii 2 that gets new map packs like on COD 4, COD WAW. With these new upgrades to the wii it will be the best game system in the world!

  • Tim

    There is a super console that supports every game and everyone does own it. It’s called the PC

  • trevor

    my suggestions to make the wii2 an amazing gaming system:

    1. no friend codes they make online terrible and an organized online system like 360
    2. more memory
    3. hd
    4. more games for teens for gods sake
    5. headset
    6. idk maybe a mii world or something
    7. able to listen to music while playing
    8. backwards compatible with wii
    9. downloadable content
    10. demos and betas
    11. flash player
    12. dvd
    13. have gamerscores, gamertags, audio messaging
    14. and have better graphics

  • horton

    the wii already supports cod world at war, and will never support halo because microsoft owns the rights… which will never be shared.

  • Tag5437

    wii’s should have a good version of flash to play online games, because all it supports is flash 7 which plays youtube only.

  • david

    Nintendo has made amazing systems. they should have an option for a normal video game conrtoller or a nunchuck
    and have gran theft auto for the wii

  • Buster4252

    it would be cool to have HD Support, Better DS support (Like being able to send your Virtual console and some wiiware games to your ds and play them like PSP and PS3), Sequels to Exclusive games (old and New, could also happen to wii 1) like zelda twilight princess, earthbound, wii play, final fantasy crystal chronicles but more like the gamecube game, Starfox, Super Mario RPG, and paper mario like the N64 and gamecube games. gamecube games added to virtual console. Hard Drive

  • basic wii suggestions =P

    the wii 1.5/2 needs the following upgrades

    graphics that dont look like its a ps2

    memory

    dvd compatable

    ram

    internet using your wireless network or hook up directly to your local connection

    more buttons on the wiimote (L,R X,Y Z)

    slimmer outer casing similar to the ps2 slim

    ect

  • esiege

    One thing and one thing alone… a nintendo equivalent of xbox live.

  • wii master

    the wii needs better internet compatibility. like a wireless keyboard or something. the new wii should also have more free channels and double as a cd player.

  • devin

    And internet should also be able to be controlled with a classic controller.

  • n/a

    Agreed, but for the record, while the Wii does lack DLC in first-party games, Rock Band 2 and GH:WT both have dlc. If Wii owners are lucky, we may see CoD 4 DLC.

  • pretz

    the internet should work with all servers, not just a few.

  • idiota

    how should i know

  • http://aim.com wii owner

    THE WII 2 SHOULD HAVE
    1.BETTER GAMES FOR HARDCORE PLAYERS
    2.FREE DEMOS LIKE XBOX 360 AND PS3
    3.A NEW GAME REMOTE FOR LAZY PLAYERS THAT WORK IN ALL GAMES[NO MOVEMENT NEEDED]
    4.BETTER COMMUNICATION WITH FRIENDS THAT HAVE THE GAME SYSTEM LIKE THE PS3 AND XBOX 360 HAVE[LIKE HEADSETS AND VIDEO CHAT WITH FRIENDS][NO FRIEND CODES AND STUFF LIKE THAT]
    5.BETTER GRAPHICS
    6.AND THE ABILITY TO PLAY ONLINE WITH PS4 AND XBOX 720 OWNERS[THAT WAY YOU CAN PLAY WITH FRIENDS THAT DONT HAVE A WII 2 AND SONY,MICORESOFT,AND NINTENDO CAN SEE WHO HAS THE BETTER GAMERS]
    7.YOU MAKE IT UP CONTINUE THE LIST IF I FORGOT ANYTHING OR U HAVE MORE IDEAS

  • josh

    i think that the wii 2 should have the capabilities of entertaining young children,good graphics,and better gmaes

  • josh

    I think it should have a better wiimote good games be DVD compatible have better online connection ways and have graphics that dont look shitty

  • side_shot

    The company that develops a true hd wireless 360 degree head set + gaming rig under $300.00 will win

  • ChrisCraig3

    the internet is compatible with a wirless keyboard on the back of the wii it has 2 usb ports so you can type on a wireless keyboard you just have to get one.

  • Emetica

    As for the HD aspect, Nintendo could use a hybrid technologie with the graphic card, as ATI already made with the PUMA or XGP Platform. So, the Wii stay almost as it is, but for the hardcore gamer we are, we could buy an add-on box that will boost the graphics and why not, put a HDD by the way and just install it as a docking station will. No big change, just what we want in a easy way and only for people who want it.

  • http://google.com meyer

    if there’s a new console there will be a new super smash bros

  • http://google johnny bravo

    i think you should have better controllers and more realistic looking graphics. web cam so you can see and talk to eachother.

  • http://nintedowii2;realeasedateandwhatsneededupgrade adrian davila

    i think you should add somethig. like a mat that you stand on with no wires. and what ever motion you do on the mat it happens in the game.

  • http://nintedowii2;realeasedateandwhatsneededupgrade adrian davila

    plus the mat would have to be big ok besides that i think you should make a suit that you put on and it it is like youre in the game yourself and you have to put this hat/helment thing you put on your head and it only weighs about a pound.and this glass like on a motorcycle helmet comes down in front of your eyesand you cold see in the game.

  • Gamuhhh.

    I think for the Internet connection, there should be a mouse, and a wireless keyboard, it’s really hard, and time consuming to try and move the mouse, and type with that dumb controller!!!! I also think it should contain a built in camera in the senso, and make video inter active games, like the Nintendo DSi Wario.

  • David

    As I game player I like the wii but graphics need to be better and add a remote as like the xbox360 or ps3 controls . some players like to play with a regular remote otherwise then the wii remote. I rather use a regular control for the wii and the wii console its self should be upgraded. different main screen and ect. I would buy wii 2 if it had the following as I think any other would.

  • NintendoLover

    Dude – your theory is flawed. Another important factor is Sony Playstation was supposed to be the nintendo playstation, and not the 64. The disagreement between nintendo and sony on the final product impacted nintendo’s original release date the SNES successor.

  • http://pctst.webs.com Jeff

    ya, what “wii owner” says, and i perspective, the wii 2, should have just as good of online connection, and sign in as PS3 and Xbox(my cousin has an xbox, i have ps3 and wii), and allow u to chat, send messages, voice messages, webcam chat etc, to friends with an without Wii’s. yes, the internet should be free, they can get money off games and most of the items u purchase off the internet. no doubt more HD. yes free demos, i can go on and on. DO IT NINTENDO!! and u wont get run out of business, in fact if u listen to us, u could be the best damn gaming system!!!

  • Larold

    better graphics are really important, (although the Wii will live on for a while without it) being able to play games that feel and look real will be an awesome experiance. Nintendo Wii suits (instead of remote and nun chuk) would be Uber cool!

  • Larold

    if u want to play the Wii with a normal controller like with the xbox 360 or the PS3, then you shouldn’t be playing the Nintendo Wii at all, what would be the point.

    Also, the fact that you don’t have to pay every month to play online with the Wii is awesome, way better than paying $30 or more a month for Xbox live

  • KryptorX

    Compete? have you seen the sales, you should tell that to Microsoft and Sony

  • Dbz Crazy

    A Good wii feature would be that the wii supports nintendo ds games.

  • babykesie

    if u make the new wii almost like how an x box and a ps3 is then i bet more people would buy it. have more online gaming games and have head sets so u can talk to people. make more sports games but make them more realistic instead of kiddy and so easy to play.. make wireless controlers too and it would be all good

  • kingkevs

    1.IT would be nice if you could download demos like in xbox arcade and playstation network.
    2.if you could please make graphics way better like in xbox or ps3.
    3.to be abill to upload music and vidios like in xbox and ps3

  • Raven

    or 2011 hahaha
    greetings from hi ya

  • Skyler V.

    Why would you want to play a game like that on the wii. I mean the entire reason for the wii launch was to get people off the couch and moving. With those games 1. it would be extremely hard to play even with a classic controller. 2. It goes against the reason it was launched in the first place.

  • Guy

    1) Although they’ve been pleasing hardcore fans more this year, I do agree. Let’s see some more for the hardcore.
    2) Yes, that is a good idea. But there are demos in stores as well for some games.
    3) Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of the Wii? Sorry, I disagree with this proposal.
    4) A head set would be nice. Wii Speak was clever, but it could have some problems I imagine. (somebody walks in the room, the mic is picking up extra voices) I think both options should be available, as they can be both put to good use.
    5) The Wii does have good graphics. Unfortunately, there just aren’t many games that show the potential of the graphics. However, there are a few games that do have excellent graphics. (particularly Super Smash Bros. Brawl and Super Mario Galaxy)
    6) That would require an agreement between the companies, and that will most likely NEVER happen. Not a bad idea, but you’ll be waiting a long time for that one.

    Me, I think the option of HD would be nice. Just as long as it works with or without, for those who can’t afford to purchase an HD tv. Other than that, there’s not much else I’m really hoping for. Oh, also better attachments. Wii Wheel, big disappointment. Some controller attachments that aren’t just a piece of plastic, that actually do something that you can’t do with the remote alone.

  • Super Person

    Yes! It will also have a built in combination toaster/time machine! >:D

  • danny

    i think the wii 2 shouldnt have friend codes because it takes too long just to play a couple of games with your mates. it should be a simple word or something. Also it needs more games like uncharted and halo that kind of stuff. i know they have to sign a deal with the publishers but nintendo can afford it. also i think motion control is good, but things like wii fit go a bit far with the excercise things, i sometimes just want to play a good shooting game with my friends.

  • Steve

    The Wii next gen should have the following:-

    DVD – blueray
    Harddrive
    HDMI
    Stereo 3D viewing

  • Jesse Bentley

    The Wii 2 needs to get more games that only come out for Xbox & Playstation, it also needs to be another colour or come in Multiple colours instead of plain white.

  • Creampie

    I agree the wii games lick ass and they need better games

  • Kissker

    You guys are pretty stupid when it comes to “why” the Wii was made in the first place, some of you have it dead on though… but only a select few.

    The Wii was never intended to be a “Next Gen Graphics” console. It never will be, instead Nintendo took a new approach to the world – and has had the best success of any console, ever. (Just recently the 360 is having more “get up and move” games, using a mock skateboard)

    The point of the Wii was to provide Entertainment (whoah, really?) to a wide variety of players, not just “hardcore gamers” or “FPS fans” but children, adults, and grandparents alike. They are putting the family play back in the Game Consoles (something I remember fondly with the NES system, playing with my Dad and asking him for help when I got stuck.)

    All you die hard heavy gamers – get a PC and 360 and go chill out. The Wii is perfect – to a point.

    It’s ideal was to get families, friends, coworkers and anyone else together and moving, playing, laughing, and having a good time… yeah, literally, slap happy humor somtimes with some games, and silly cartooney everything (Look at the Miis)

    They did a fantastic job. I played Wii bowling with my parents and sister – we haven’t done ANYTHING together in about 15 years. It was a great day, and afterward, we were all sore from the work out. Nintendo created a fun-addictive play system, that actually makes the “Players” work out and get moving, which is great for your body.

    The only Changes I suspect “Wii 2″ will have will be HD support for 1080P – since 1080 P took the world by storm and No One wants to settle for less, and 480P looks jagged and blocky on 1080P displays.

    Another thing will probably be Plug in DVD/BlueRay Drives.

    Other then that I expect more “precision” in the Wii-motes, they have already added some things to this, and they will probably contenue to do so – as for a Head Tracking system – possibly, but really I can’t think of a good use for that other then Vid Chatting with Miis or something. (Games are not that far advanced and it would take probably million in R&D to get them advanced that far, even on a Wii Graphic scale,and if your going that far, why not full body sensor from fingers to toes and “live” your games.)

    Nintendo is doing a great job, they had a plan, they stuck to it, and of course we have whiney children that complain the graphics aren’t enough.

    I got news for you PS3 sucks. Sure it’s got graphics but none of the games have replay value, it’s hotter then a 360 anyday (and DOES have “RROD” type issues from it, just not as wide spread) and almost no one that has one uses it for blue ray, so you waste money.

    360 is “alright” in my book – minor problems, that have been fixed with the new Arcade Series (new smaller Die/chips to prevent massive overheating and warping of the system board, causing RROD) I personally own 1 PS3 – never use it anymore – 3 Xbox360s – Friends and family fun on multiple systems/displays and a Wii. The 360 and Wii are played near daily – alternating between the two. The PS3 collects dust. I use my NDS more then my PS3 and I use my PC more then anything.

    Nintendo did good, they set reasonable goals, got people moving, got families and friends together, and provided sheer entertainment on levels that any player, of any age, can enjoy. What more do you want from a console? You have fun, with friends. A+++ in my book. Microsoft and Sony could take some lessons from this whole thing.

  • Tenchi2010

    Sales don’t matter. The sheer number of gamers the Wii has brought into the market and how many units they sold when the system was released and is still selling should make Sony and Microsoft quake in their pink-polka-dotted-pajamas. Nintendo started the gaming industry and it continues to push boundaries.

  • john

    dear sony ps3 owners: enjoy your console because sony already announced that they are NOT making anymore game consoles!!! LOL, cnbc said this earlier in the year.sony is retiring from gaming,you will see. As far as wii 2 goes, i sure hope nintendo thinks about every thing wii1 lacks and not only match what ps3 and xbox360 has now,but surpasses them both by far!

  • P. Erson

    And that would make nintendo a monopoly which would be illegl so that’s impossible

  • robin

    What i would like in the wii 2 is: more memory,HD compatibility, a port two play GBA games and The ability to download and play background music like the xbox360. : )

  • Andrew Breece

    i have only read like half of these..and the wii 2 should be just an upgraded wii..the wii is fine how it is..i dont think it should have a dvd player cause if i buy a wii its going to be to play games not watch dvd..and as far as the graphics go…how do they matter at all i would like nintendo to keep worrying about gameplay instead of graphics..thats why nintendo will always be the number 1 gaming company..they make sure there gameplay is good..and they make games for everyone to play..not just teenagers or adults..they make games for kids..teenagers…adults and even old people..and for everyone microsoft and sony fanboy that says the wii sucks..sony and microsoft totally is jacking everything from the wii..ps3- wireless motion with like ratchet and clank and such..360- mii’s and the wiis motion sensor bar..how does nintendo suck if they made this revolutionary system that the other companys are starting to copy..u guys need to look at the big picture and realize nintendo has been making games for ever they were the best then and the best now.. and what ever the decide to put in the wii 2 i know for a fact will blow away anything sony and microsoft will pull out cause ill bet u that they will just copy the wii 2 just as they did the wii

  • Jesse

    Oh! I don’t know if someone already said this or not, but:
    -Better communication with friends
    -New ‘Lazy’ controllers
    -Making that little black thingy that goes on the top of the screen a little more thorough so people don’t have to fight with it when the TV is too small D<
    -Demos
    -A nicer start page that is customizable
    -Able to have communication with other systems
    -More websites you can go to

    I think that’s it :3
    Oh! It’d be cool if ya get other colors for the Wii
    I hate that it stands out too much with its purely white.

    Oh! And more durable so little kids won’t break it when they through it out the window :3

  • Marsmash

    i hope it is an upgrade. some people just got wii and now 2 comes out what going to happen to the first wii. will wii 2 get it own games. it should just be an upgrade.

    lol u seriously think…they have been always been wining why would they lose to sony and microsoft now when atari and sega are way better then sony and microsoft..if nintendo can beat them they will have no problem owning sony and microsoft

  • http://Aim.com Louie

    like you can put on a head set and when you move around the game does what you do. its awsome!!!!!

  • dave

    You all are such idiots.
    1) BluRay is owned by Sony.
    2) Halo is owned by MicroSoft
    3) the Wii and the 360 have graphics from the same company (ati)
    4) pc does not have all games.
    5) If Nintendo plans on having that headset, it will be a while before it comes out.
    6) I own a wii. i do not own a ps3 or 360, but i have friends who do. as i see it, each console has its strengths and weaknesses.

    Nintendo has been around since the start of the gaming industry. they have beaten everyone who has stood in there way. Sony and Microsoft are no diferent from any other company who has miserably failed. the purpose of the gaming industry is to entertain. not to beat the other companies.

    The snes did not have to change much from the nes. and i expect the same from the wii 2.

    Nintendo has not put out new games to beat the other companies. for example, starfox 2. it was originaly going to be released on the snes, but nintendo stoped the release saying they did not want a game with 3d to be put onto there system till they came out with a system they thought they wanted 3d games on. nintendo could have let starfox 2 be realeased for the snes just to have the first 3d game on a nintendo system, but they didnt. they dont realease games for profit. they do it for the enjoyment of the consumer.

  • Andrew Breece

    that is all true..nintendo does care about its customers but moicrosoft does not…and i think sony is in the middle some where..microsoft is just super greedy and will fail before sony does but nintendo will not fail..the beat sega, and atari why would they lose to sony and microsoft

  • ??????????

    if you get the HD adapter, I have one, you can get HD.
    P.s. my wii is new but my TV is like 10 years old(no HD on it and I get HD with the wii.

    but the rest seems ok.

    OH they need face plates for the wii. thatd be awesome to put flames on mine or Glow in the dark.

  • Nintendough

    The PC? You gotta be kidding me. PC sucks for games. If you are talking about emulation, not only is it not legal, it’s a crappy experience. Games meant for PC is another story, but saying that you can play any game for any system on the PC is a major stretch of the truth. It comes down to – Nintendo did it first and did it better. Sony is cool, but their games are for acne faced kids with wifi connections and headsets who play FPS all day – oh and they shove remotes in their butts like that kid on youtube – when his WOW account was cancelled. Xbox sucks because microshaft sucks. Goldeneye 64 would have been a perfect addition to new game systems, revamped and buffed up of course, but because microshaft owns major shares in the company, it will never happen (unless for Xbox only). Wii PWNs.

    I think that the Wii 2 (or whatever they decide to call it) definatley should have more HD supporting games.Also better channels and more memory would be sick.Definatley some harder games (for the experienced gamer).Get rid of the whole friend code system and do what the 360 does.Better access to the internet (the ability to be able to do all that a comptuer does already).maybe something super futureistic like a full body suit that lets you almost BE the caracter (like when you jump character jumps when you run character runs. would take time but would be totally sick.Keeping (and maybe improving the shopping channel).Also improving the whole Mii system (more face,hair,mouth,nose,and facial hair options).Blu-Ray support is welcome.Maybe, juat maybe with the push of a button it goes from a console to a portible device (dual powered of course). Not too expensive. And finally something like a tracker in the system too see where your friends are or where theyre going.

    I think Nintendo should team up with Apple® because apple have a bunch of cool softer may be together they can come up with some cool software for the new Wii2

  • pete

    Well it needs blue ray and dvd it needs better grafics it should play wii 1 games it should be a black system and have hd.

  • Antwon

    Wii 2 will not have blu ray, blu ray was created by sony and theres no way theyre giving that technology to nintendo or microsoft

  • Xizzaar

    The Wii 2 would rule with some better graphics, DVD Support and some better motion tracking… Like if ur playing a fighting game the character moves the hands exactly the way ur moving the remote and the controller shouldnt lose track of where ur pointing it when u do a fast move. Maybe there could even be some kind of gloves and you dont need buttons, like when u go to inventory you move it away from the motion tracker.

  • timmy

    I think wii needs to get a dvd drive and some online play also it would be cool if the system had powerful hard drive. and a built in sensor.

  • MichaelP

    Um, Blu*Ray is already supported in MS Windows and is a standard that a bunch of companied developed. I don’t know if Wii 2 will have blu*ray or not, but if they don’t, it will be because they chose not to, not because Sony (or anyone else) denied them access to the tech.

  • Cinbadrio

    Whats the difference?

  • a dose of reality

    you are an idiot

  • Ethan

    Well, from what I see, the Wii will come out on top. They have experience. They have characters that are more well known than the president. So, no they won’t lose. They have momentum more powerful than Sony or Microsoft. The Wii has past success to fall back on and I am not talking about financially. Sony and Microsoft don’t. Nintendo was running a race track to test itself on how good they could make themselves with their games. Sony and Microsoft saw him run and tried to out run him. Well, Nintendo has been running for something like 20 years. I don’t think Master cheif is gonna stop that momentum. He doesn’t have the influence. First, say good bye to Sony, then to Microsoft and wave at Nintendo as it continues to make consoles and games until the next company dares to race against it. It might take awhile for Microsoft to give up (I suspect Sony already has somewhat) but it will eventually. If not, well then good luck to Microsoft.

  • awben

    Might I point out that I really doubt that Nintendo will call its next console the Wii 2 or anything with the name Wii in it. From Gamecube to Wii was a big difference not only in name but in style. Perhaps Nintendo will create a console that can go both ways because I am willing to bet that Nintendo wants to keep making consoles and games that get you off your couch (for the most part), but I think they know that Nintendo fans are looking for something hard core as well. So, maybe I don’t know what I’m talking about but I think that Nintendo should not name their next console after the Wii. I think they should make their next console something new and exciting.

  • bstoner13

    it should be able 2 play ds games

  • kelly

    a way to huck it up to a treadmill for track and field racing games.

  • Kyle

    Also sony had to get blueray from
    toshiba, sony does not own blueray, fucktards do the research before u start stating false facts

  • Krystian Masiewicz

    they have a cam for wii but i don’t know if they will make it able to see and talk to each other

  • ergad

    You’re an idiot. You’re talking about a serious increase in msrp and Nintendo has never truly targeted the acne ridden teen playing in a cave, why start now??

  • fandad12

    it needs a more of an xbox kinnda online except no subscription

  • Evan

    I THINK the new wii should have a portable charger.I personally think the wii was a good idea because most of nintendo makes is portable gamesystems.And a new wii mite put nintendo in line with sony.

  • miiii

    I think the wii 2 will HAVE to have at least 8gb of memory for anyone to buy it, a better shoot 'em up aspect, BlueRay and DVD features an a itv and channel 4 player as well as the bbc iplayer. it would also be nice to have a computer desktop, way way way way better graphics and a better sound card. personnally I would like to have a camera for photo booth and stuff like that but that may be a bit exsessive.
    bye

  • ricardo

    I would just love if the Wii 2 or an upgrade would give the ability to read japanese game like D.O.N battle stadium because that game is awsome and itas alsio made by the same company wich indeed is nintendo. come on guys please do that because i Know there are othere cool japanese games

  • Killa

    I think nintendo need more grown up games! Not so much kid games. Def in HD!! If your thinking on trying to beat the ps4 an xbox u need alot more games, HD, blu Ray, online, headset, a reg controller, and also have the games look real

  • rickitup

    No you are wrong about sony and microsoft system. first of all nintendo will fall before any of these 2 just because nintendo made some what of a good system since snes or nes. Just dring the ps2 nintendo did not stand a chance, ps2 is the best gaming system ever. and Sony is starting to pick ground now. the two system that wll fight it out at the end is sony vs. microsoft. sony has the better around console but microsoft as a better following as of right now. you will see at the end of 2010 sony will be on top of the console and will hold it tell 2011-2013 when the 8 gen console come out. So get off the nintendo dick and play a real fucking system. Only good games nentendo has now is smash bros, mario kart and nothing.

  • PERSON

    no wii is fine where it is… all that fancy jazz just ruins it… and i wouldnt want to be playing a MOVIE yuo know what i mean… KEEP IT UP NINTENDO!!!

  • bob

    wii2 will need an alternate controller for games like call of duty and halo and you should be able to play games from wii 1. watching movies on my wii would be cool but only if it was HD and surround sound. but i would pick xbox 360 elite

  • joe

    BETTER LOOKING MIIS

  • wiiboy101uk gizza

    i used ur name haha

  • classified

    and the wii 2 should play movies

  • classified

    yeah just like you could play gameboy on the gamecube i think

  • Matthew

    Nintendo lost me at Gamecube…..which I still play. I refuse to stand there like a dick waving my arms around like a lunatic….I'm in my 30's now, I want to sit down…all nice and civilised…and play games with a proper controller. That is why I prefer the GCN version of Twilight Princess…..the last game Nintendo made with adult gamers in mind. The PS3 serves my purpose very well….and that will not be replaced till 2016. Good luck finding the money for your "1.5" version consoles….and I'll just keep getting fitmware updates to keep my PS3 cutting edge, like the soon to be released 3D update.

  • james braselton

    hi there you mention the wii2 will have 6,000 blocks vs wii at 2,048 blocks or dsi at 1,024 blocks of flash memory i can live off 6,000 blocks of flash memory i am still useing a comadore 64 with 64 kb or 64 killobytes of memory soo i do not care about capacity and 1 mhz cpu lets see the wii has 512 mb of memmory at 2,048 blocks soo 6,000 should be around 1.5 gb or 1.5 gegabytes i have saw specs under wii2 saying 4 gb flash drive thats 18,000 blocks of flash memmory

  • james braselton

    hi there well i will just stay with first gen becuase i have 512 mb of lighting fast flash memory storage not a hard drive and like the xbox 360 hard drive or ps3 they are lot slower of loading games game play lag time is long i raly want a solid stae flash drive or sd ps3 or ps4 say like intel 80 gb or intel 160 gb ssd

  • Eon

    Use that SD slot for a RAM UPGRADE. =)

  • Jimbo

    The next nintendo Console better have blu ray and a huge hard drive! the wii was dissapointing to me being a long time nintendo fan. I think they should have wire free controllers. I hated the wire from the nunchuck going to the wiimote, it just got in the way. I hated the second long lag to some games also. I know the ps3 move will be much better than the wii motes. Project natal is just going to be stupid because all you do is move your arms around. Having the controller just feels better. I hope nintendo improves on their next generation games because currently the games don't feel any different than gamecube games.

  • Jimbo

    I agree 100% with what you said. Nintendo and Sony are my favorites. I only own a PS3 right now, and I sold my 360 and wii because I wasn't happy with niether of them. But I hope the next nintendo console has blu ray.

  • austin

    it should be abell to play blue ray and DvD and it would be coole if you had it live like the xbox360

  • Steven

    Wow you really don't know what you are talking about. Toshiba invented HD-DVD, not blu-ray. In fact they were the last ones to the table in releasing a blu-ray player. Read and learn young one.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc

  • YO MAMMA

    more mii features

  • Wii nerd

    Here is a couple of improvements that I would love to see in the Wii 2. : )

    1) Just like a lot of people I want the graphics to be better. And can you try to make the graphics even better then the PS3? If it is possible that is.

    2) I was hoping that there will be more hardcore games similar to the PS3 and XBOX 360.

    3) I want there to be Gamecube games avalible to download in the Wii Shop Channel.

    4) Of course, I also want to be able to play both dvds and blu-ray.

    5) I would love it if they made it even more realistic and life like. To be honest most of the Wii games aren't realistic at all. For example: The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess is fun and all but it hardly ever got me of the couch and moving. I want to play an action game that will really get me moving.

    6) I want the Miis to look more like humans instead of cartoons.

    That is all that I could think of right now and yes I am into more realistic things.

  • maxwell

    It should have…

    dvd and blu-ray

    bigger and better variety of games(instead of my little pony.more stuff like mad world and resident evil umbrella chronicles)

    instead of”friend codes”,it should do what the ps3 does…

  • RubenCL

    this probebly be a littel late to ask but is it possible to play the new games of wii 2 on the old wii if not please make that possible

  • Piimamees

    Ruben CL :D :D:D
    Please make PS3 and XBox and PC games playable on my NES.

  • Joey

    all… I want… is better graphics, movies, more stuff to do, HD, and somehow make it 3d seeing how they're making the 3ds and it looks amazing. Also really good internet too with a flash player. I need my you know what:p

  • michael a.

    have your thoughts control the game, or have a body suit to control everything!!!!!!!!!

  • YourWrong

    Whoever wrote the dumbass comment about no new consoles before 2011/2012 is an idiot, because Microsoft just released a new Xbox 360 and Sony has made a PS4.

  • Mahdi Vafaei

    The wii 2 would definetly need a webcam, instead of remotes. Just have a green screen behind you and the system could project you anywhere. That way your character would look like you and you wouldn't have to make cheesy and inacrrate mii characters. This would be a huge step up for nintendo that may just put them over the top. Comparred to all of the other things nintendo has already made, and the technology already out there, this would be simple.

  • the man

    wii 2 my beat 360 & ps3
