Next Wii price and spec leaked

We already know that the next Wii successor will have a 6-inch display on its controller, and support for 1080p, as well as backward compatible with current Wii controllers and games. However, there’s more info now courtesy of IGN.

Sources close to IGN say that the next console will be based on a revamped version of AMD’s R700 GPU architecture, and, similar to the Xbox 360, the CPU will be a custom-built triple-core IBM PowerPC chipset. It will support 1080p and also possibly has stereoscopic 3D. The console could ship as early as the fall and carry a price tag somewhere in the region of $350 – $400. Of course, this price tag is just estimation from Foxconn, which is said to be building the console.
