"The Inquirer" has an article (http://www.theinquirer.net/default.aspx?article=37694) written by Charlie Demerjian stating that a drunken Nintendo executive spilt the beans that the Wii GPU has full hi-def capabilities.

She say's
"The reason you don't see it is twofold, the fact that the console can't really push HD rez at reasonable frame rates and the fact that it would cost more. The latter will probably become a moot point with the first Wii refresh but the former problem is really here to stay."

Whether this was just drunk talk or has truth behind it is not known, Nintendo's lips are sealed as always.
