For what has seemed like years now, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter has predicted that Nintendo will eventually announce a Wii HD. Nintendo has dismissed the idea on numerous occasions and has stated that a new system announcement would require more than just HD support. So, why does Pachter continue to believe that the Wii HD is on the way? He explained on the latest episode of Pach-Attack:

“…So I always thought Nintendo would respond to Natal and PS3 plus Move by having Wii HD ready when those two things launched. I’ve been wrong consistently and the reason I’ve been wrong is Nintendo doesn’t see the world the way I do. So the answer to your question why do I think it? Because it’s logical. The answer to your question, why hasn’t Nintendo done it? Because they don’t think it’s logical. And I don’t want to get in their heads, they are great business people, they run their company well, my view is this is something they should do.”

Pachter also noted that he thinks the Wii will lose some of its market share to the PS3/Move when a reasonably-priced bundle is announced. According to Pachter, Sony will be able to tell Wii owners that they can upgrade to an HD console that is being completely supported by publishers and contains additional features such as Blu-ray.

GameVideos user gamerfan85 uploaded a video to the site yesterday, explaining that he captured footage from a new game called Nerkas outside of the Staples Center in Los Angeles. A quick look at nerkas.com reveals that the domain was registered by Square Enix Europe. Now, we know Square Enix has been teasing a new game for the past several weeks, but it isn’t clear at the moment if it is related to Project X. In fact, it isn’t clear if this is even real at all!

“Several developers that have experienced 3DS in its current form have reported, off the record, that it has processing capabilities that far exceed the Nintendo Wii and bring the device with abilities that are close to HD consoles such as PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. According to several developer sources, the 3DS device is not using the NVIDIA Tegra mobile chipset, a rumor that’s been floating around since 2009.”

I’m having a hard time believing this one. Looking back at previous portables, they’ve never really surpassed their console “counterparts” in terms of processing power. I think we’d be lucky if the 3DS’ power matched the GameCube, though I’d be very glad if it was more powerful than that! We’ll have to see which specs Nintendo reveals at E3.
