Esoth says:

Well, Miyamoto has admitted to the possibility of an upgrade of the wii and the ds but 'no concrete plans at the moment'.

[continuing from esoth's news article] i'm pretty sure laser is HD but should be better than LCD and plasma. i don't know that much about it, but there was a thread a month or 2 ago. check it out, the links are a good read! www.mywii.com.au/

but then again there's another thread ripping them to bits www.mywii.com.au/ (i haven't read all of this one yet)

LOL jubbo83, you really should read all of the article "ripping them to bits". I totally shut down KeepitREAL with multiple links and proof that they are not only coming soon, but are superior to LCD and Plasma in every way.

Man, oh man. Nintendo sure no how to make everyone feel uncomfortable. I really hope they don't bring out new versions of the DS and Wii, because that will mean that I have to buy the newer gear...

yeah like i dont think it is Nintendo's thing to milk a product like sony did with the ps2 and slimline!!!!!!!!

phatbass82 says:

I know, it's funny how Nintendo are doing that.

I mean, come on, they released the DS (Original) and then the release yet another version of the Gameboy Advance (Micro) after that. That's now 3 different versions of the Gameboy Advance. I suppose they are trying to appeal to more people.

I've heard rumours about a new version of the DS with a whole lot bigger screen and a bigger stylus.

Wii-Fan says:

yeah I heard about that too!!!!!!!!

phatbass82 says:

The only thing I wish was that the DS lite had the same D-Pad design as the original DS. It feels a bit dodgy and not very smooth to use.

I noticed this when I first got my DS lite and playing The Sims: Urbz in the city. When controlling your character, it seems a lot smooth on the original DS D-Pad than the new DS Lite bad. Can't complain too much I guess, I love the glossy black design on my DS lite...

Wii-Fan says:

lol I never got a DS lite because I gave my ds to my sister and she never wanted a DS lite so we never got one lol...

anyway can they really justify upgrading the DS again I mean how much better can they make it

but they could have an elite Wii - DVD and Hard Drive

WiiGoGo says:

hmmmm I don't need a bigger screen or stylus for DS.. I am happy with big chunky Grey original DS.. I didn't upgrade to DS Lite nor feel the need too. Same with I didn't get a GB SP or a Micro went straight to a DS (you can't have everything) that said I do have Gameboy, Gameboy Pocket, Gameboy Colour then Gameboy Advance!! Ha-Ha..

Oh how I wanted a GB SP in the classic NES Design!!

Hmmmm an elite wii might just be too tempting!!

I've heard rumours about a new version of the DS with a whole lot bigger screen and a bigger stylus.

Wii-Fan says:

Yeah an elite wii would be irissitable but if you think about it it would probably cost $500 and then that would be bordering on the same price as a 360 and they would not get many buyers!!!!!!!

jotendo says:

the wii upgrade will come out when the new coloured wii's do, im pretty sure

07/13/2007 oh god where am i?! *cry*

headofwfc says:

Sounds cool but being able to play dvd's would be cool

The coloured wii consoles are still only a rumour. But coloured remotes are supposedly on their way.

Harlster says:

wii upgrade eh? That sounds very cool.

07/14/2007 Melbourne [city of stuff, wooo!]

Esoth says:

Yeah, but it would drive the cost - and therefore the retail price - up. Which goes against their policy of making it affordable.

07/14/2007 Brisbane

Harlster says:  

I don't care how much the upgrade costs It would be worth it!

crazynites says:

I just hope that if they release a new updated Wii with hard drive & dvd playback, they also release add-ons for people who already have a Wii. I would be very disappointed in Nintendo if they didnt. I have no intention of buying the same console twice. I still have my original ps2, I couldnt understand why people would buy new ones just cause they were slimmer.
