High-definition is the future and it seems that Nintendo might finally be moving in that direction. Miyamoto, in a recent interview, said this:
…I’m afraid we cannot confirm what we are doing today. But the fact of the matter is that technology is evolving all the time and in Japan, for example…All the analog broadcast will be stopped and shifted into the digital broadcasting. So many things are taking place and we are working in terms of the changes of the technologies all the time
So yeah, kind of a non-statement from Nintendo’s Senior Managing Director but you can read between the lines that once the world is ready, there will be an HD Nintendo gaming system.
I both love and am completely frustrated by Nintendo when they do stuff like this.
Like “Hey, we’re getting voicechat now!” after all the other systems already have it, and instead of a personal mic it records a whole room and all the noise in it.
If they changed the Wii to hi-def somehow, it wouldn’t look that great. I’m using composite cables, and it seems to me like it reveals more graphical flaws than the standard cables on some games.
If he’s talking about future systems, that’s great. I’m just afraid the world will probably be on “super hi def” or something by the time Nintendo switches to HD(okay, I’m not serious, but still. I love Nintendo, I really do, but stuff like this…)
Agreed. Wii games look like crap on my HDTV.
Nintendo NES, best video games ever ! ;)
Honestly, I do use my Wii more to play the older games than I do the new stuff. I guess they’re making money either way, but that can’t really be good.
In fact, I think my girlfriend uses the system more to surf the web on TV than I actually do to play games at the moment.
That might be more Fallout 3’s fault than Nintendo’s though.
