Square Enix boss says Wii 2 is just two years away

Nintendo will release a follow-up to its highly successful Wii console in 2011 – that’s the prediction from none other than Square Enix boss Yoichi Wada.
Though Wada was light on details, he also told The Financial Times that the Wii 2 will incorporate many of the features currently seen in the likes of Xbox 360 and PS3, most notably HD output.
Interestingly, he also predicted that the machine is likely to boast an all-new controller. In the same piece, however, Wada predicts that the upcoming motion tech for both Xbox 360 and PS3 is unlikely to provide a significant boost for either machine.

“Present game machines already have a lot of functions,” he explained. “They are a network terminal, a Blu-ray or DVD player, and a gaming machine. Compared to these three pillars, the new motion controllers are quite limited, so the impact may be small.”
