According to a news post on My Nintendo News (which got it from Edge Online), Nintendo’s United Kingdom marketing boss, Cammie Dunaway, has said that there will be no Wii successor coming anytime soon. That means we will be having the same old Wii for awhile yet.
“I don’t think it will be any time soon,” Dunaway told GameSpot in a video interview. “Even though our installed base is, at this point, five million households larger than the PS2 was at the same point in its lifecycle, it still has a lot of room to grow.
“That being said, part of Nintendo’s heritage is to always be looking at innovation and to start working on the next hardware as soon as we launch a platform, so we’ll have it ready when we think the time is right.”

According to 1up.com, Nintendo is making a new gaming system… not really. Shigeru Miyamoto has talk about the recent projects he has been doing at the Japan Media Arts Festival. Those projects are the new Legend of Zelda Wii game coming out, some Motion Plus game as well as a new hardware. It’s not confirmed if it’s a new Wii, a new DS, or maybe something out of the ordinary.

The Nintendo Wii is a system that has been around since 2006, utilizing motion sensing in order to pull players into the games. But Satoru Iwata says that the new “Wii 2″ which may come out in the future needs to have something more, and that’s not exactly just high definition.
“If asked if making the Wii compatible with high definition – just making it compatible with high resolution – will get players throughout the world to buy it, I would of course say: ‘Do you think it would sell with just that? It needs something new.’”
Of course he wouldn’t give any clues away, saying “If there were no rival makers in the world, I’d could give examples of the things that we are considering. However, for competitive reasons, I cannot give specifics today on the what or when of the things we’re considering.”
