    So it has to be a new console. Ken Levine made more sense than Reggie.

    So, there's a new console, which is what Iwata talked about, but it won't be shown until next year, and this Wii U thing is just more for us to forget about, right?

    Graphics are not even as good as the current consoles, which came out 5-6 years ago.

    I don't think that's accurate. I think the Wii U is actually the name of the console as they kept on saying ''Wii U controller''. I Think the console's gonna launch in 2012.

    This is so weird. They are basically announcing that they are finally up to pace with PS3 and 360. If sony or microsoft announce a new console next year WiiU will already be outdated.
