With the Wii and the DS, you can’t argue that Nintendo isn’t an innovative, forward-thinking company. So why on Earth would the Big N even consider releasing a DVD-ready Wii console? That kind of move seems to be a step backward. At a recent stockholders meeting, Nintendo President Satoru Iwata said the updated Wii system would be put on hold while focusing on getting the current model on more store shelves.
