A Nintendo spokesperson has confirmed to GamesIndustry.biz that they will release a Wii console with DVD playback capability in 2007, although only in Japan. From GamesIndustry:
“Speaking to GI.biz, a spokesperson declined to comment on when the new machine will hit the shops, but did confirm, “There are currently plans to release a version of Wii in Japan featuring DVD playback.”
If the DVD Wii version is successful in Japan, there is no reason why Nintendo wouldn’t start selling them in the US and Europe. They will, naturally, come at a higher price.
