Will they push for next-gen graphics like the PS3 and Xbox did this gen?

Will they provide us with an upgraded version of the Wii, possibly Wii2 ?

What are your predictions?

Something along the lines of Super Wii. More powerful and an innovative online mode.

Maybe for Japan and Grade schoolers, but I doubt traditional MMO players would make a switch to a different styled game.

If the 3DS is any indication social gaming will be a selling point. I also expect some sort of motion control based off the wii mote or maybe kinect

I **** hope they will make a strong proper console on par with anything new from sony and microsoft.

So they get both nintendo exclusives and multiplatform games. Right now wii feels pretty pathetic.

I'm pretty sure they'll be updating hardware to rival that of the next consoles. I'm sure the next nintendo system will look awesome, work awesome, and be purely awesome.

Don't mind too much about the power, as long as it has standard stuff like HD, good online, proper harddrive, etc. Once that stuff is in place I'll be a happy bunny :)

Although an unrealistic wish, I'd much like for Nintendo to operate under the PlayStation brand. Three console manufacturers are too many for me but I wouldn't want to do without Nintendo's games. Moving towards a single platform would be great where the competition lies solely between games and not between different consoles.

3D console with motion sensing like the wii. in order to make it as cheap as possible, it'll probably be a gen behind graphically again. there's my prediction.

Nintendo will offer a strong, forward thinking idea supplemented with outstanding first party software. Additionally, I believe Nintendo's next console with be just as powerful as its competitors and will also have good online. Nintendo knows that weak graphics and online are the biggest reasons they've missed out on so many multiplatform games this generation. If Nintendo can get the same multiplatform titles as Windows, Xbox, and Playstation next generation and it has good online to boot, I don't see Nintendo losing its spot at the top of the sales charts. Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Kirby, Donkey Kong, Star Fox, Wii Sports/Play/Fit/Party, Mario Kart, Mario Party, Mario Sports, Wario Land, Wario Ware, Nintendogs, F-Zero, Fire Emblem, (Nintendo/Advance/Battalion)Wars, Excite (Bike/Truck/Bots), Wave Race, 1080, Custom Robo, Chibi-Robo, Super Smash Bros, Baten Kaitos, Pilotwings, Mother, Pokemon, Punch-Out!!, Golden Sun, Xeno, Kid Icarus, Starfy, Balloon Fight, Ice Climbers, Mother.... Nintendo just has too many major IPs and too positive a brand association to lose if it can step up its graphics and online. Better multimedia support wouldn't hurt either.

I don't think a turn based MMO would work. I have no clue though.

I imagine a perfect way to play it would be a real time game from the point of view of the Pokemon, and have your trainer always follow you rather than you play as the trainer.


Of course if you enter shops, and towns you could switch between them.

But for battling you'd just have your standard attack of tackle, bite, gust, etc which would just go off every second or w/e (Like an auto-attack), and then have the type moves be your cooldown spells.

But who knows. It could be amazing if they incorporated every type of battling in the game, so you could have big, full scale real-time battles, turn based battles against single trainers, and even a trading card game on the side :o Because the Pokemon Trading Card game on the Gameboy Color was amazing :P

The Wii could maybe be accused of that, but the DS? What in the world makes you think its overpriced? If anything, I would argue Sony and Apple are the ones with the overpriced hardware in the handheld market.

Nooooooo! How can you say that!? We need a photo realistic Mario, blood and gore in Zelda and a Donkey Kong tearing his foes apart limb by limb, all in a dark grey world.

Joking aside.


I don't think Nintendo is going to make a next gen console, they're going to (like they did with the Wii) make a NEW gen console. You don't beat your competition by trying to be better than them, you beat them by being different. Also there is the Vitality Sensor, from my understanding it's a piece of hardware designed to work with software to combat stress. Stress is actually becoming quite a serious issue and if all the moms and dads (who for some reason so many gamers hate) gets one along with the Wii or the new console, Nintendo is once again going to lead the way forward.

This the NES was the strongest its gen, the SNES was in the middle not the strongest but stronger then its biggest competitor, N64 it was the strongest console that gen, GCN it was only weaker then the Xbox though in some games the GCN actually looked better then most Xbox games like Metroid Prime looked better then Halo (Most people compared them.)

Er, no, they aren't. NES, SNES, N64 and GC weren't a gen behind. Wii was their first home console to be behind its rivals.

*sigh* if only...

In the future, I'm pretty much just going to hope siding with Nintendo for handhelds and Sony with home consoles will give me the largest variety of games without having to intentionally purchase additional systems solely for access to first party exclusives.

I believe in evolution when its called for and proven to be better on all fronts. Motion control is still less reliable than standard controllers and doesn't support as many genre's to the same level of control.

Hmm, going by this gen only, perhaps 2 Wii's duck taped together and with the added gimmick of some sort of mind control to go with motion control ? :P

IMHO, I really don't know what to expect except probably more of the same.

The Sega Master System was technically superior to the NES, featuring a faster CPU and also capable of displaying more colors.

If there is one area Nintendo actually is usually a generation behind the frontrunners in, it's optical formats and storage space. To say that Nintendo is far behind on content delivery and all-purpose fuctionality is a real understatement... it's hard to imagine the Wii can't even play DVD videos out of the box.

Mr_BillGates

Maybe for Japan and Grade schoolers, but I doubt traditional MMO players would make a switch to a different **** game.

Traditional MMO players are irrelevant anyway, though there would be enough depth in battles for core players.

Whether or not they will make it is very hard to tell, I'm thinking that the chat filled with crap is not something Nintendo likes. It's not going to be WoW like, more family friendly-ish of course.

I would quit life it they'd make a great Pokemon MMO. I would also prefer the more relaxed nature as opposed to the competetive one in WoW.

I can see how tacked on motion should become optional instead, there is a demand for it, but Resort and Zelda SS have proven that WM+ is relevant in gaming.
