Star Fox Runner Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 This is probably old news for some people, but I thought I would bring it up here for discussion. Recently, based off of the information released about the Wii successor's components, IGN built a machine to try and give examples of how the Wii 2's games will look! And I gotta say it's got me psyched for what Nintendo has in store this year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aADc6GWf494&feature=player_embedded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deploy Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 This was quite interesting. It'll probably be a lot cooler that a simple PC. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gene Inari Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 It's definitely food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vy'drach Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Plus there's a chance that as tech gets better soon, they might upgrade their components from what they are now. Gonna be awesome when/if there's a new Star Fox for WII. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DZComposer Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Don't put much stock into this. The guy built a midrange PC and called it a "Wii 2." All he's proven is that similar off-the-shelf hardware can run modern PC games at decent settings, IE the potential is there. But it doesn't really many anything. It's Apples and Oranges. Some things will be better, as Cafe won't have as much OS baggage, but some may be worse as the hardware will be customized to Nintendo's specs. Especially considering the requirements for case space, cooling, and power input. And all of this assumes those hardware rumors are true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But speculation and hype is what makes waiting for announcements like this fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DZComposer Posted May 19, 2011 Share Posted May 19, 2011 YouTube commenters are speculating that the man whose head we're looking at the back of in this vid is Reggie Fils-Aime. The guy does have some resemblance, but the video is too dark to be sure. If it is Reggie, then this vid is true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that you mention it, it does kinda look like Reggie, but then again, it's just the back of someone's head, so who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
