  1. By 2013 Hardware might be obsolete. If ONLIVE becomes a hit , all you would need is a high speed internet connection. This would save companies lots of money and end piracy forever.
    The Only problems that need to be addressed is lag and latency. But buy 2013 everyone might have 5 Megabits down or higher.

  2. Wii HD Is almost a given. I Agree that Nintendo needs to get up to date graphics with the same controls. I also think Nintendo needs to add a hard drive based system.

  3. The elimination of Physical discs will not happen that quickly because most people need higher download speeds to download a full game.
