Wii Successor set for E3 reveal

Nintendo confirms new console set for 2012 release

Posted on
Nintendo has confirmed that a successor to the Wii is on the way, via GS.

In a message to investors, the company said "Nintendo has decided to launch in 2012 a system to succeed Wii, which the company has sold 86.01 million units on a consolidated shipment basis between its launch in 2006 and the end of March 2011."

"We will show a playable model of the new system and announce more specifications at the E3 Expo, which will be held June 7-9, 2011, in Los Angeles."
  the note confirmed.

Media sources rumoured last week that the new Nintendo console will have a graphics chip based on AMD's Raedon R700 GPU. It was also said to have a tri-core processor and a controller with HD touch-screen capability.

We'll have more on the system from E3.
