Lets see if Mr Hank is right, well we got to wait a couple of years for that to happen. This post will then be archived. Well we dont really know, Nintendo may release another console they may not, well we got to wait another 5-7 long years, by then technology will be really high, satellite internet connections, plasma tv screens, digital this and that....xbox2/ps3, possibly Ninteno Gamecube 2. Who knows?!!
