Project Cafe (Wii 2), leaked video of console?



    It seems that someone may have leaked a video of the successor to the Wii, which is currently codenamed Project Cafe; most people seem to think it'll end up being called Nintendo Stream, because it streams four 1080p videos at the same time to four different controllers, which all have touch screens!

    The hardware in this new console is also far better than that of the 360 and PS3 (which is understandable, because it's far newer). Nintendo and other game developers were all having trouble innovating anything else with the console, so they had to make a new one.

    Nintendo has been behind with the Wii for years now, and with the release of Playstation Move and mostly the release of Microsoft's Kinect, the Wii had nothing special about it, anymore; the Wii is just a withered old husk, ready to become obsolete (if it hasn't already...).

    The new console will be completely backwards compatible with older games from GameCube and the Wii, but the compatibility with older games from other systems is unknown; however, they have said it will have a higher emphasis on backwards compatibility (I hope it comes with a Super Nintendo game player! :D)

    Project Cafe is said to also be the most developer friendly system; this means that they will make it very easy to develop games for their console. This is way different than the Wii, which many people had trouble programming for, because of the Wiimote's motion controls.

    The SDK (Software Development Kit) for this console sounds awesome! We may finally get to see mainstream games being released on all three consoles, with great graphics! Maybe even a FFXIII rerelease, but with 1080p! (instead of 720p like on PS3 and 360...)

Project Cafe, Wii successor, Designs



    IGN asked for people to make their own ideas of what the Wii 2 (Wii's successor, codenamed: Project Café) will look like. There are rumors and speculation circulating everywhere and Nintendo has announced that the console will be revealed at E3.

    There were quite a few cool designs that IGN revealed from its users, even if one of them does kind of look like a VCR...

    There are far more designs at IGN, but this one to the left is my favorite. It may look like a VCR, like I said, but it still looks awesome! IT has four controller ports, which use USB, and the system kind of reminds me of the Nintendo and Super Nintendo consoles...

    Anyway, I really hope it doesn't have the name that this person gave it... Nintendo BEEM; that would be such a strange name... Most people believe it's going to be called the Nintendo Stream, so far - this is because of the cool way it streams 1080p video to each of the four controllers, simultaneously. How is this useful, you ask? Well, if you are playing a four-player split-screen game, you don't want the others to cheat by looking at your screen; so, you can simply look at your controller without anyone being able to spy on you on the same screen as theirs! And, you get your own screen instead of having to share it...

    Plus, 1080p is a really high resolution, meaning this console is very powerful. The 360 and PS3 are both capable of 720p, 1080i and 1080p - however, most games on these consoles usually only make the effort of using 720p, even though it's a far smaller resolution. If this console can stream four 1080p videos at the same time, it has to be very, very powerful...

EA, probably developing for Next-gen Xbox



    According to IGN, Electronic Arts may very well be designing games for the next-generation Xbox, already! The case, according to them, just looks like a normal computer - like many early consoles look like, before they have any real design.

    The updates on IGN's story tell that the console is probably going to be coming around 2013, but the people at Electronic Arts (EA) don't know what the console really looks like or much about it; they said it was from a trusted source, but who knows - Nintendo is announcing their console at E3 this year, although, Microsoft won't announce one this year, they may announce one next year and release it in 2013.

    Some people are joking that it's just going to be a 360 with a Kinect duct taped to the side...

The Wii 2 - Reveal at E3 in June!?




    Game Informer has said that the Wii 2 is coming soon; according to them, it is coming in June or sooner! New features include High Definition (...finally, Nintendo! 480p is just sooo old...) and a few other new things, I'm guessing - however, Game Informer didn't really mention much, nor did pcworld.com I wonder if the console will have 720p or 1080p? Or maybe higher... my television is 1200p! Some people have 1440p and even 1600p! YouTube even supports resolutions as high as 4k - (4096x3112) OR 3112p! Some are also saying the Wii 2 might support Blu-Ray discs, but that's just unsupported theories (so far...).

    The Wii has been inferior to the other two consoles in many ways for years now; the only advantage it had over the 360 and the PS3 were the motion controls. After the PS3 and 360 came out with Move and Kinect, respectively, they were then fully superior and Wii sales started to drop. The 360 came out on top and is still on top, with the Kinect outselling Move and the Wii.

    It seems that with all of the declining sales of the Wii, and the rumors that the Wii is coming down in price at the end of May (or beginning of June), the details from multiple sources, Wii's inferiority and few big game makers for the Wii - the Wii 2 may very seriously be around the corner.

    I really want to see a Wii 2 (Wii successor - Nintendo doesn't usually call it the same thing as their previous installment). I loved some of the games on Wii, but it seems to me that the Wii just had very few that were good. The ones that were good were original, amazing, cool, awesome, different and whatever other positive word you could think up! I loved Metroid games, Mario games, Zelda, etc. However, I think it's time for a new installment in the line of Nintendo consoles, or they'll be stuck behind the other two consoles forever.
