Nintendo seems to be working on the second version of infamous Wii console for the next year.

Vikki Blake from GGS affirms the same from a source that validates the fact that comes from 2009 that states of the console that boasts of a Blu-ray drive, 1080p in a globalised release program.

Blake adds that the fact is yet not confirmed but the specs are almost true, similar to the fact that the Japanese gaming giant will be launching the Wii 2 with a Blu-ray drive in 2011.

The Blu-ray part is a bit interesting as one apparently lessens the tendency of gamers to pirate their games, something which yet needs to pass through the time trials.

The release dates of the device have not yet been confirmed as of now however, console is bound to be released by the holiday season in 2011.

The device appears to be one of those kinds that involve the interest of making and developing a worthy rival to upcoming Sony and Microsoft based platforms.
