Next Nintendo console will be HD-compatible
Nintendo president Satoru Iwata has said this week that he believes that although high definition video has no “significant meaning” to users of the extremely popular Wii, the next Nintendo console will certainly be HD-compatible.
“If we have an opportunity to make a new console, it will probably support HD because it is now common throughout the world,” Iwata says. “However, as far as the Wii is concerned, we have not found a significant reason to make it HD-compatible at this time.
“What is the significant meaning to the users? I don’t think we should do it unless we find that reason. If we decide for other reasons to make new hardware, then HD is one of the things we would naturally add.”
Iwata also spoke out about the new Sony and Microsoft motion-based control systems.
“We don’t have any information about when they would introduce these things and at what kind of price,” he added. “Until we know exactly what they will do, it’s harder to understand what we would need to do.
“What Nintendo has to do is make software that takes advantage of the Wii MotionPlus and make efforts to make the public understand the benefits of the Wii MotionPlus controls. As the pioneer of motion-sensing technology, what Nintendo has to do is provide new surprises in the next and two years from now.”
