Square Enix president Yoichi Wada believes Nintendoâ??s follow up is closer than believed

Wii 2 forecast for 2011 release

Nintendo will release a follow-up to its highly successful Wii console in 2011 – that’s the prediction from none other than Square Enix boss Yoichi Wada.

Interestingly, he also predicted that the machine is likely to boast an all-new controller. In the same piece, however, Wada predicts that the upcoming motion tech for both Xbox 360 and PS3 is unlikely to provide a significant boost for either machine.
