This is such obvious bs. I have seen dozens of articles like this over the last couple years with no credible sources claiming the same thing. Nintendo has directly stated numerous times that they are not going to make an HD Wii, period.
Unless if the processing jump is again lame (which i find hard to believe, especially if the console displays at 1080p resolution), there is no reason to even think on whether it will run in a future version of dolphin or not, because even if it will, it will be a slide show.
Personally i think nintendo will be shooting themselves in the foot if their next console isn't at least as powerful as the current competition(xbox360 and ps3). And they can't pull a 3DS either (you would need a 3D tv set ;) ). The only revolutionary thing i can think for their next console really is for the console to actually have some decent power. Different control types are already exhausted by the competition and 3D with glasses is already supported so...
Some people forget that the only reason wii can be emulated in decent speed is because it is extremely underpowered. Remove that(HD gaming support) and see what happens with emulation... Hell i can even find gamecube games that can bring a core i7 to their knees.
But if by the small chance what he says is true, and the next wii has 2 cores, could dolphin run each emulated core of the wii in a separate core on the computer? So then dolphin could use 4 cores? (including DSP LLE)
On the gpu side I dont think we have to worry speed wise even if the new resolution is 1080p. In most cases the cpu is what limits the emulation speed, not the gpu.
