"Repeat their mistakes" is an odd phrasing when they are ahead of their competitors combined.

Honestly, I wouldn't put it past them to aim for something in the range of a current 360/ps3 for next gen, but I don't think this is that console.

As for the name

I assume its a combination of Hi (Def) and (Wi)-Fi to show that they will be working on their HD content and online service. And being that its Nintendo, it doesn't hurt that it sounds like High Five!
