Wii Want More

Over the last few days it seems that the internet has been going mad with rumours and speculation about what to expect from the next Nintendo console so i have looked over all of the rumours and thought why not i tell you what i think.

Speculation 1 - It will be more powerful than the PS3 and Xbox 360
To me i think this is a given because for the next Nintendo console to challenge the other two they have to match the power or be much more powerful, this in my eyes is also one of the main reason why some developers don't want to release some of there games on the Wii.

Speculation 2 - More games will be aimed at the core market rather than the casual.
Again this is another given as the Wii seems to be a hot bed of shovelware games and children games so the best way for them to get more people to play there next console and make everybody happy is to get more adult orientated games on there console.

Speculation 3 - The games will be on Blu-Ray and not DVD
Now the main thing here is that the rumour is that the games will come on a blu-ray disc and not that the console will also have a blu-ray player built in as Wii games run off DVD discs and this is not a DVD player.
This would be the best way for them to have better games and textures in there games if they running off a media that can support more space then this can only be a good thing.

Speculation 4 - The controller with have a touch screen section.
The thing is do we need this, now we know that the controller will be motion based like the Wii and we can guess that they are going to make it much more responsive so the big question is do we need another add on to this and in my eyes i say NO, what we do need is a better control method with motion added to it becuase the Wiimote does work well however it alienates a lot of games and gamers. 

Speculation 5 - It will be shown at this years E3 and be out next year
In my eyes this has to be 100% true because for Nintendo to get more people to buy there next console they need it to be out before the other two as there is no sign that Sony and Microsoft are planning to announce a successor to there consoles any time soon, plus the end of next year has to be the latest they can release there next console.

So thats what i think and we should know for certain when Nintendo have there press conference at this years E3
