We seem to have trapped one of the mods within the forum's code... and we're not sure how to get him out. Oh well, he'll figure it out!

Wait, is there seriously going to be a Wii 2?

Meh. Backwards compatibility = very similar = not looking so good.

Fuck logic, that shit is boring, lame and does not always support my opinions.

Well, I guess we'll all find out at E3. But until then, I love speculation! It makes us feel like idiots after the console is released and we all think, "How could we ever think it was like this?"

I don't think you know what backward compatibility means.

It means amazingness. You can play games from the previous console

Yes.  By emulating the system.  Not necessarily by having similar hardware.
Easy examples: 360 can play much lower end Xbox titles, PS3 could play lower end PS1/2 titles, lots of PC emulators, etc

Therefore, backwards compatibility doesn't mean the system will be at all similar.

Besides, if they didn't make it backward compatible, unless they came out with a LOT of decent games for it too, they wouldn't sell much.

Hey, the Wii was backwards compatible with the Gamecube, and they looked NOTHING alike.

Moar liek the 3DS needs backward compatibility for GBA games.

Thanks. For a moment there I was worried, though. I almost needed to blow you.

GB/C games will be on the VC at some point, GBA inclusion is dubious.

If you know what's up you'll just get a flash cart with emulators though.

Not really, flash carts on the 3DS brick your system.

My point. I would like to play the games handheld rather than on a TV screen.

Along with like a million other videos.

This is why you check claims like that before you spit them out.
