Wii 2 Will Rock You – Maybe

Nintendo appears to have done a pretty good job of keeping the lid on the Wii 2, and it's not quite clear just what features the Wii 2 will have. However, the device may not be quite as advanced as the rumors have it, Pietro Macchiarella, a research analyst at Parks Associates, told TechNewsWorld.

"Nintendo's strategy has never been that of being more technologically advanced than its competitors in terms of graphics and capabilities, except possibly with having 3D on the 3DS," Macchiarella stated. "I think the only sure thing is that Nintendo is working on a next-generation console." He does, however, expect the new console to be HD-ready, and he speculated that Nintendo will focus more on usability and, perhaps, controls rather than graphics capabilities.
