  What's up with people wanting DVD players on all the consoles? Gaming is changing. People prefer to see a powerful multimedia device than a fun gamming system. If this continues to be like this, I assure you that the SNES will dominate the market again soon or later >_>.

    Really cause xbox1 was a multimedia device so was ps2 and they both had more fanbase on it, plus sony has won with it. I don't know but thats what i get out of it.
    
    I agree with the name its a fire starter for any type of fanboy, though i never said anything bad about the name seeming how people call me a fanboy, but whatever.

  I would completely eliminate the Friend Codes system and have something as simple and easy as Xbox Live with the whole Gamertag thing, like a MiiTag or something. With this would be easy to use Parental Controls for the parents who want to restrict what their kids can do online, like the ability to receive pictures or voice-messages.
  
  I play games like Wii Sports and think how cool it would be to have bowling tournaments and such.
  
  I don't think the Wii needs to be a DVD player, and the graphics are fine, so really only the online system.

  I'd like to be able to watch DVD's on my Wii, that'd be very useful, I own a PS2 and a Wii, but I don't have a DVD players. So when I want to watch movies I have to unplug the back and replug in the consoles if I want to do either one. I don't think it'll take over the Wii, it didn't seem to take over the PS2, but it was useful.

  The only thing I hate, as Vito Raliffe said is freind codes. They suck.

  Yeah, friend codes are getting on my nerves. But Nintendo is keeping with their '"Wii" don't want little kids getting raped' campaign, and so it's not going to change.
  
  Also, I hate the Wii puns, and the Wii name. Yes, ironic that I made one, but still. The Revolution was a much better name.

  More graphics utilization. The graphics are fine, but they don't use them.

  Get rid of the name "Wii". It will sound weird if you tell someone "Wanna play my Wii?".

  Honestly, two things are pissing me off. Only two things. Even worse, they can be changed. One is the online system, mainly individual friend codes we seem to be using. It seems all over the place at the moment, with Pokemon using the DS servers, Strikers using Mii-specific codes and Madden using a different EA system. Just one for all future games is enough, one universal friend code for every Mii. Second is the lack of an HDD on the console. I am running out of space due to VC games, some games require quite some space if they include a lot of customization or level editing and downloadable content, like Wiiware and new updates, will simply not all fit in a mere 512MB. Just update the firmware or something, that's all I ask for. Let me use a third party external HDD.
  
  Better graphics are always a plus, but I don't mind. I still think Galaxy looks absolutely beautiful, so I'd be satisfied if more developers gave a damn. I really couldn't care less about the name. Really, I like how easily it rolls off the tongue and how easily it can be said and typed.

  I think the graphics are fine, but could be improved, obviously. The name is okay, but like Evanster said, it sounds weird in specific sentences. I think a DVD player would be useful.

  The only two things I would change is:
  
  

  • HD/Graphics
  • Friend Codes

  
  
  ---
  
  For the graphics, I'd improve them just a little bit. At least make the Wii support 720p. I'm not saying the graphics have to be at 360/PS3 level, but somewhere closer to that would be better. It can't be too expensive, right? (The 360 Core is selling for $300) I'd be MORE then happy to spend an extra $50 bucks on the Wii if it supported 720p and had slightly better graphics.
  
  I do admit, though. Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption has actually wowed me in the graphics department. Now if only all developers made their games like that!
  
  As for the Friend Codes, get rid of individual friend codes for every game, instead use the universal Wii code for every game. Copying down one code is much better then a new code for each game.

  Make wii mote lighter

  Yep that's pretty much it.

  I like the power button on the Wiimote. It allows you to play Wii without even getting out of bed to turn on the system.

  Better controller so the wii can have Third person shooters, less moving your hands, more games, just one controller that has enough buttons to play a good game.

  I like the power button too. I stil lhave to walk over to the console to insert and eject the disc though....
  
  FRIEND CODES SUCK. Can't I meet random people online please? Even within in the Mii-system, they should have allowed you to meet and chat with others on the wii around the world.
  If you wanna protect kids, just turn the friend code on for consoles that have parental controls on!! DON'T control the whole gaming population, assuming they're ALL children.

  How about a new name? The Wii name really sucks and got old after two seconds.

  yeah, the actual console design does look pretty bad. I think there's some kind of standard when it comes to designing video game systems, they should look NOTHING like anything else on the market, and should be really stylistic and cool looking (Xbox was amazing with the design). The wii looks like a cheap usb cdr-w drive.
  
  It SERIOUSLY needs a wireless nunchuck, for bovious reasons.
  
  the game companies also need to quit going so damn overboard with the control schemes. Okay, we get it, the wii has a really shiny motion sensor, but i shouldn't nave to hold A and flick my nunchuck at a 90 degree angle to dive in a baseball game.

    Wait, you're kidding right?
    
    The original Xbox design was god awful. It was huge, clunky, heavy, and just plain ugly. It looked like a badly designed space heater.
    
    On the other hand, the Wii is small, sleek, compact, shiny, and just plain good looking. There's a really cool neon blue disk slot, and professional looking buttons. And did I mention that its about the size of 3 DVD cases stacked together?

  They should add at least a DVD player. Only DVD player is my XBox. And now that thing is so old that half my DVD's don't work on it anymore. I need to get it cleaned or something. But man, it would be so much more convenient if I could just use my Wii.
  
  Also, how about some better adult titles, eh? Part of why I got the Wii was Manhunt 2 and Project H.A.M.M.E.R. Now both of those are cancelled. As much as I'd love to spend all day playing "Cooking Mama" or "Toki Toki Big Adventure Panic" I think I'd like to play some cool games aimed at young adult males too.
  
  And yeah, I still think the Wii is a stupid name, and I'm a big Nintendo fanboy.
  
  To be honest, Nintendo has let me down this generation (so far at least). Of course, I already bought the system so they'll probably never know. But give me games aimed at hardcore gamers, dammit.

  Because of the "wiimote" that's suppose to bring "creativity" into gaming... It's also taken away from gaming.
  
  
  I rather have Third Person Shooter than go "look mommy the game moves when I move my hand!11!23121!@`12~!`1~QQW23`1"...
  
  The wiimote is the down fall of the entire system. Then the gay name too.
