A rumor has been floating around that the new Nintendo Wii, the Wii 2, will have an internal Blu-Ray drive that supports HD resolutions up to 1080p

A rumor has been floating around that the new Nintendo Wii, the Wii 2, will have an internal Blu-Ray drive that supports 1080p games and movies.

The Blu-ray Wii rumor was started by a Nintendo of France marketing employee and also said that it should be out by the third quarter of 2010.

Another rumor (that I don't think is true), is that consumers will have the option to trade in old Wii's for "Wii 2" consoles.

Here is a current list of Nintendo Wii 2 rumors:

  • The Wii2 system will feature a Blu-Ray drive with a secondary aim of stopping piracy
  • 1080P and lower resolutions will be supported, for Blu-ray movies and games
  • The release date is scheduled for third quarter of 2010
  • The release will be worldwide and on the same day for all countries
  • A scheme will be available in which it is possible to trade in the original Wii for a cheaper price on the new Wii 2
