@Waveboy Nintendo Dolphin definately isn't going to be the name of it as project dolphin was the codename for the Gamecube.
@FunkyGamer The lazer beams shooting out is actually how the Kinect works. They've video taped it with an infrared camera.
@eirikr I think I remember reading somewhere that the next nintendo console will not be 3D.(interview) It doesn't work well from broad angles.
If Xbox or PS go 3D, I think they will fail because extra sets of glasses add up quick and don't allow for spectators. Nintendo however does need to step it up in graphics upon seeing what the competition has to offer. I think we are still going to be seeing motion gaming from now on but in subtle ways. I don't think we'll see near as many wii sports-esque titles but more excite truck, Super Mario Galaxy and Skyward sword games. Nintendo is probably gonna lose their casual audience anyways because they're not gonna want to invest in it again after seeing its playlife.

@SimmerE14 I've always wanted to see animal crossing menu interface. The game always seemed like a sideshow to me to something bigger (no offence).
PS: sorry for the double post.

So have I.
It would be awesome if they do it right!

@armoredghor & @SimmerE14: I thought about that too. For being the online world of the system. I imagined it being like this.

• Everyone's got his own individual house which looks different to the others by giving it a style in the vein of the game you've played the longest. _{for example}
• You can let people into your house, watch videos, read something or listen to your _game music together.
• You can play any multiplayer game you own with them. Only you have to own that particular game. _{Well it would be great for WiiWare or VC multiplayer titles at least.}
• By achieving something _(special) in a game you get t-shirts or other new accessories for your house or your Mii.
• It would link your Wii and 3DS stats and some games from the VC and WiiWare would be playable on your 3DS too.

That's just a thought and i don't know how practical it would be or how soon the novelty would wear off. And i don't think it would be a real selling point for any system. _{Because only games are really.}
But it gives an idea on what i'd love to see on the next Nintendo console. _{Aside from all the evolutionary things like better tech and better graphics.} Something social to show off which you get out of playing all these sweet and awesome games. No matter how long they are or how low their replayability is.
Well that and something so unique no one can think of it yet.

Yes, that would be a very good thing. As long as the prices for these controllers won’t be much higher then though. And i'd still love to use all the stuff i bought for my Wii.

If this became a reality, I can't wait to have an Animal Crossing house l

wouldn't it be awesome if nintendo used a hvd instead a harddrive?
