Nintendo play down talk of new hardware
No Wii HD, no nothing
Speaking with Kotaku, Reggie Fils-Aime has this week played down chatter surrounding new hardware from Nintendo - noting that any new developments are far "into the future."
"The fundamental issue in the logic flow is that - and this is what I'm hearing, whether it's from you or Geoff or Michael himself - is that, gosh it's such an opportunity to take HD capability and link it with the Wii. And what we have said, repeatedly, is that that's not the way we at Nintendo do things," the US boss told the blog.
"The way we at Nintendo do things is, you know, when we will move to a new generation, it's because there are some fundamental things the [current] console cannot do. What that says is that simply the addition of HD capability will not be the next step for us. There will be more to it. There will be additional capability. There will be additional elements, and, given that, it is far into the future."
Fils-Aime has spoken in the past to play down talk of a Wii HD anytime soon.
