they are planning to release such console far to early. And the only thing that has been rumored to be better then the xbox is the GPU which will possibly be a Ati R700 4870/4890, but with microsoft and sony planning to release theres in like 2013-2015 it gives them time to polish up and console far more powerful then the Wii2/HD. Also what if Nintendo messed up and lacks in the memory and hard drive area like they did with the Wii.

How come PC's don't get the Significantly more powerful than xbox 360 and ps3 rep. :mad:

Granted they aren't consoles, they still compete with them.

How much revenue do you need to develop a console?

$1 billion. Sega doesn't have the money or the interest. Sega has become a story of tragedy because of poor business decisions over the years.

I didn't say they would, I said they had the money.

take a look at Sega annual net loss.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Sega_Annual_Icome(Loss)_1993-2004.svg

By the end of 2005, Sega experienced strong earnings growth across multiple divisions. Contributing to the company's success were strong pachinko sales

In September 2009, evidence was uncovered that suggests Sega is expanding into the online gambling sector with the launch of an online casino and poker room in October 2009. In 2010, Sega published a sequel to the original Sonic series with Sonic 4.

Sega has also expanded into the previously largely unaddressed market for interactive urinals with the release of the Toylet, a system that allows players to control a series of games using their urine to control the on-screen action.

nintendo is good at one thing, making money, nintendo knows very well how to make money, and handhelds.

in terms of this gen nintendo kicked some ass I have to admit, but only for the sake of money. Wii is similar to GC to me but they made it do something spiffy, motion control o_O, mine has been in my attic for about a year now and got it as a gift but :ohwell:

None of that means that they don't have the money to develop a console.

Am I speaking english?

You cherry picked some good paragraphs from the Wikipedia page and linked a graph that showed Sega's losses through 2004. 2004 was a long time ago. I read the financial report from March of 2010, just in case the Wikipedia page was wrong about their revenues. Wikipedia is pretty close to being right, the financial report says that Sega has $1.74 billion dollars in revenue, which is more than enough to fund the development of a console. I'm not saying they would, mind you, just saying they can afford it.

That same Wikipedia page also shows that Sega filed US patents for controller designs in 2009. So unless they are designing a peripheral to allow females to play their urinal games, I would say something could be going on. Hell that paragraph was just above one that you quoted in this thread! Read the page again.

Look, I don't want to derail your thread about a future Nintendo product anymore. I'm pretty excited to see what Nintendo has in store, since the rest of the console juggernauts are plainly chillin' doing nothing. Move and Kinect might be great products, but the systems themselves are dated. 10 years is too long of a development cycle for a console.

I have had the same impression ever since I bought it and played Zelda on it. To put it simply, it is an overclocked Gamecube with motion controls, my Wii and all the cool accessories I've bought with it is rotting away in my closet along with my nargile bong :roll:

I am excited and curious to see Zelda and Metroid using current gen graphics, lets do it Wii HD!

Wii 2 touch-screen controller has been confirmed:

http://e3.gamespot.com/story/631694...ntroller-confirmed-report/?tag=topstory;title

Furthermore, the controller can be used as a "portable game device." Though earlier speculation had the controller streaming games onto its screen from the Wii 2, Nikkei reports that "Nintendo aims to attract more users by offering a console that doubles as a portable game system," implicating the controller can be used independently.

Nikkei also confirmed that the controller will have a camera that will allow players to create characters based on pictures they snap. It also said the Wii's successor console could launch as early as mid-2012.

cartridges are too expensive to make. apparently Project Cafe comes with a 8GB SD card for save games, 250/320GB internal hard drive and Blu-ray.
