So are you talking about a Wii with a souped up GPU/CPU that equalled that of the 360s?

I normally don't answer hypothetical questions,but I will this time.

Maybe.It really all depends.Most likely.

But it's not,so we have to deal with it.

actually I did make it kind of broken. Nintendo don't sell their systems at loss. And it would cost more. The Wii would probably cost 550$

You should elaborate on this a little more anyways. Would this be a second SKU or is this a hypothetical illustration where it would be the ONLY SKU?

I would spend 450 for my Wii. I basically did on launch :P but that was getting 3 games and extra Wii remote

But if it was the console alone for 450, I would.  And I'm serious.  Its just that Nintendo Consoles I've owned always leave lasting impressions on me.  Well 1st party games from Nintendo, and thats what I like.  Last two gens the main systems for me was the PS1 and PS2.  But I mean I look back and sure there were some great titles for it like FFX, Kingdom Hearts, and Ratchet and Clank.  But it just didnt leave a lasting impression.

Nintendo has more personality.

Right now I'm expanding my PS2 library(most recent buys: R&C,R&C2,Dragon Quest VIII) whilst waiting for SMG,SSBB,and Project H.A.M.M.E.R. to release,as well as a 360 price drop. If the Wii was more expensive,I'd be waiting for price drops on it as well. That's just how I roll. 8)

I consider anything above $300 per console as too expensive. Nintendo or not,
$450 for a console is just too much for me.

i'd rather it had the capabilities of the 360 (not just graphics and physics etc, but online, hard drive and other stuff too) and be $450 (probably £300ish here), rather than have what it has at the moment and be $250 (£180 here).

i doubt nintendo would make it more expensive than the PS3 or 360 though (premium 360 anyway).

i would love to see the next zelda and metroid (and others) in true HD with amazing next gen graphics. but ill just have to wait til next gen for my favourite games to look that good. hopefully the leap (graphics wise) for nintendo's next console will be huge and the graphics will rival/be better than PS4's and the next xbox's. we'll be spoilt! haha. overly detailed zelda!

i think this generation for nintendo is just to get their "foot in the door" (so to speak) once again with a more affordable, accessable and fun console that everyone can enjoy. Then next generation, they will get back to us hardcore gamers big style. while still retaining their big casual gamer following they have at the moment hopefully.

so hopefully the company will be confident enough to focus on both types of gamer big time.

and not going on so much about "getting your grandma to play wiisports!".

i agree.  i'd still buy the console a few years down the road after the price went down.  but at that price.  it's just not worth it.

In my humble opinion, it would have been better buy. If Wii would have had bigger hard-drive, possibility of having CD-based consoles on the virtual console service would likely increase, including, however not limited to the likes of Sega Saturn and Sega Dreamcast.

Plus, if would have had more powerful graphics, I would imagine that currently, we would not be recieving all of these last generation ports (with practically most everyone one of them, including Twilight Princess, being lazy ports) of mostly "older" games (I am looking at you Ubisoft).

Though, with that being said, if library would have been unchanged, I would still not suggest into on others: right now, unless you are fanatic of virtual console goodness (i.e. I am), for my liking, it is rather clear that it is lacking in good quanity and variety of games (in another words, at the moment, regardless of the excuse or reasoning, it is reiking of N64 and GCN otter).

Well yeah, of course. The power of the 360/PS3 with the innovation and greatness of Nintendo's first party, that would be great. Of course, the $450 pricetag would make me think twice, but I'd still get it in the end.

Perhaps... but it would most likely turn out just like the Gamecube again... with high-quality first party titles and a practical absence of everything else. I doubt I would get it up front... most likely at the end of the generation.

The Wii was made with a different strategy in mind. ;)

I would have bought it at that price, but it would mean I would have to wait THAT much longer before I could get a 360.

Hell no. I'd sooner spit in Nintendo's face if they charged me $450 for a gaming console. I would have serious issues with that. That's essentially doubling what their previous system had cost and we all know how that played out with Sony. I could care less for graphics. Give me something enjoyable at an affordable price. I still can't belive I spent $400 on a 360 I look at that thing every morning before class and feel like an idiot for spending that much money on games when I'm sitting here scrapping for money in college lol. Oh Madden where are you? I'm so broke now that it isn't football season....

First im a lemming who has a wii and loves the nintendo 1st party games. yes i would buy the wii, i bought every nintendo console since snes(when i started gaming). anyway i guess ur point is even sheep want graphics. well yes we all do. but the wii is stronger than xbox 1(although the games dont show it, but thats all developers fault not the hardware). and the wii provides something different, im glad it does because then the wii would get the same kinds of games as PS3 and 360. I like how its different from the rest. Once the devs hit how to use the wiimote correctly, we will see amazing things from the wii. I have no problem with the wii not being the strongest, its not my primary console, its my secondary to my 360.

Oh by the way, do u do anything other than bash nintendo.

I have one and I'm pretty happy with it. If it was $450 then I would have gotten it straight away if it had Zelda with up to date graphics, otherwise I would have just gotten the Gamecube version.
