The rumours were fairly specific, talking about a revision of the Wii that would have HD (and presumably CPU power to match.) It's easy for him to yay or nay this one.

Sony is already rumored to only be making small modifications to the PS3 to get the PS4. They could launch as quickly as 2011.

When will the 360 successor come? My guess would be 2011 for a 6 year life cycle of the 360.]]>Oct 7th 2008 1:43PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/07/reggie-fils-aime-denies-wii-hd-rumor/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/07/reggie-fils-aime-denies-wii-hd-rumor/Oct 7th 2008 5:16PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/07/reggie-fils-aime-denies-wii-hd-rumor/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/10/07/reggie-fils-aime-denies-wii-hd-rumor/
I'd be surprised though if they bother with optical disks. By 2011, a 32Gb SDHC card should cost less than $5. While this may be more expensive than a pressed disk, the console itself can suddenly have $20-30 taken off of its manufacturing cost - assuming blue laser readers drop to that level in two years. Between that and downloads, the only reason to have an optical drive would be backward compatibility, and it might work out easier to just have backward compatibility be provided by an accessory especially as it all kind of went to pot for everyone except Nintendo this time around.
