Iwata sees no “significant reason” for Wii HD

Rumors of Nintendo developing a Wii HD system had been surfacing for quite a few months. But Nintendo’s global President Satoru Iwata sees no “significant reason” as to why the company should make the system HD-compatible.
“If we have an opportunity to make a new console, it will probably support HD because it is now common throughout the world. However, as far as the Wii is concerned, we have not found a significant reason to make it HD-compatible at this time. What is the significant meaning to the users? I don’t think we should do it unless we find that reason. If we decide for other reasons to make new hardware, then HD is one of the things we would naturally add.”
