Good News: Nintendo to Reveal “Wii 2” at E3 – Bad News: Company Reports Annual Net Profit drop – Again!

Nintendo has confirmed its follow-up to the Wii console (Wii2? Wii HD?) will be unveiled at the E3 gaming expo June 7th-9th with the next evolution of Wii to hit stores at some point in 2012.

This exciting announcement came in a press statement by Nintendo and sweetened the other news that the company’s annual net profit dropped by 66%. Its second drop in recent years – suggested to be because of price drops across the Nintendo range particularly with DS consoles which are still steady sellers.

We recently told you the rumours circulating regarding the successor to the Wii console. We’re pretty sure it won’t be 3D. But it will be HD and possibly including some kind of revolutionary touch screen control system. We were looking forward to E3 already but this confirmation straight from Nintendo really is something to get excited about!
