Intel wants to use their Larrabee chip to power Nintendo's next home console. That larrabee chip isn't in the markets yet to be sold' but they want to use it in the next console for Nintendo. What do you guy's think?

That depends whether or not it'll enhance the graphics of the Nintendo Wii successor better than the Wii itself.
Agreed, if it makes the games better. I hope it makes games have quicker loading times.
Based on what I have found for info, the only known specs are that it can max out at 16 cores, and will have clock speeds exceeding 2ghz and could possibly reach 4 ghz. Even with the minimum possible, the successor to the Wii will have 2.4 times better in graphics. And if it does happen to run at the rumored 4ghz, the graphics and power will well exceed the PS3 and Xbox360. It won't be a powerhouse like PS3 or 360, but it will be a powermansion! (I know, that last sentence was lame 
)

that's pretty cool, if the graphics surpasses the ones of XBOX360 and PS3, who knows how many "graphic addicts" will be drawn to buy a wii
That would be amazing for Nintendo having better graphics than the other companies. I have a feeling it might last longer than the Wii if it comes out.
