Are you saying a Wii 2 game could be started in mere seconds, and flip to a web browser in the same amount of time?
I'm on board.
Sure, why not.
I pause a game automatically because I switched to a web browser or to the WiiShop.
Sounds good to me.
But I also think that it would mean that the Wii2 would always be online and constantly give gaming feedback to Nintendo and make loading shops and updating your system seamless as it always always on, like the internet.
It would also protect against piracy by making sure that each game disc is authentic with an online check and you could do auto-registration of software just by inserting it in your system and clicking on register.
you could plug in peripherals(motion camera, wiispeak) and the corresponding channel would auto load and auto update(imagine new updates for Miis being added to the system regularly or on certain dates <like animal crossing>).
You would have a log-in with constant friends list where you could chat(text &/or voice) and keep track of what they're playing so you could join in or co-ordinate.
Moving forward, something like this has so much to add to the Wii experience.
The Wii was aiming to have the familiarity of TV for you gaming console with the channels,
the Wii2 could be like simplicity of TV with the instant access of the Internet for your gaming console.
It would show that while Nintendo appeared to be behind the times (Wii online) they were actually trying to get ahead of the curve (Touchscreen in the DS & a browser-like OS in ES/Chrome OS).
Are we now creating our own rumors?
I don't know if you're referring to me or not, but nope. Not creating a rumor, just speculating based on facts found on the internet. I've presented the tid-bits, and connected them myself with my own theories. You can either sign on, rewrite or dismiss.
