Nintendo's New Console

I don't think a firmware update would be able to cover all that. They'd have to rework the system's internal software no? Plus they still have to get into the HD gig since now that HD has been universally adopted. (they said they'd jump right onto the HD bandwagon as soon as HD is everywhere)

Then do w/e is needed to do that instead of starting something new.

If you're not going to get a skill to a point it reaches it's maximum potential you might as well never added into it, other then to butt f*ck around.
