Good job by Nintendo. Wii sales had finally started to dwindle after owning PS3 and Xbox 360 all these years. Powerful hardware and better games was needed. ;)

Yeah thats right. Wii config was too weak to compete against its rivals but the problem is that PS4 and new XBOX will be released in 2 or 3 years then I hope that Wii will make a new console to compete them.

I hope the Wii 2 will be as easy to mod as the original ;)

But seriously, modding the Wii was totally worth it. I was able to run PS1 games on it ^_^ and NES games as well.

Wii 2 to have 8GB flash memory, no HDD?
Unconfirmed reports have upcoming HD console sporting proprietary 25GB disc format--but no large-capacity internal hard drive.

Nope, it's not legal but the Wii is a good console as far as legacy gaming is concerned. The modding did do a ton of good things. For one , you could play games directly off an external USB Hard Drive , good for keeping your original DVDs shiny and scratch-free in addition to very low loading times.


On Topic,

Just 8GB of Flash memory? I hope that's not true :| . With the 360 and PS3 sporting huge drives, this would be a step backwards.

I'm more concerned on whether Nintendo will actually do an official launch of the Wii 2 in India. The original never got one here AFAIK , and the ones available in stores are all made for the United Arab Emirates . If you look at Nintendo's website, there are no service centers for India :( . You gotta send it to Japan.

Yeah I know. I also hope that its not true. And yes Nitendo should really start supporting India. They are losing a good amount of sales because India has a lot of potential buyers who don't buy because of lack of support.
