Making the Wii SD as opposed to HD was a bit of a controversial decision at the time for Nintendo. HD televisions were starting to break out, and Sony and Microsoft both adapted this functionality for their own consoles – the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.
Shigeru Miyamoto, reflecting on the decision to go with SD for Wii in an interview with 4Gamer, said that “it would have been great if it were HD in the first place.” He also relayed a sentiment to move on to HD sooner.
