This is the main reason I believe they should unify the handheld and console business. They should release a handheld and console with the same or similar specs that allows both devices to play same games. The console version would be slightly more powerful than Wii U, similar to the jump in power from Gamecube to Wii and will render games in 1080p. The handheld version moderately more powerful that Vita, similar to the jump from PSP to 3DS and will render games in 720p. Each sold at $199 at a slight profit. This type of strategy will let Nintendo essentially support themselves and would allow them to make more new ip and revive old ip by reducing the amount of key franchises needed to be released. Also this will ensure that the console will get all the Japanese 3rd party support that the handhelds are used to getting. Add in the family friendly western games like Lego/Skylanders/Disney/Just Dance or whatever is popular at the time. Basically they would be the go to devices for Nintendo games/Japanese 3rd parties/western family friendly games. I could see the console version selling 20-30 million and the handheld version selling 50-70 million giving a total of 70-100 million with 200 million units of first party software which should give Nintendo a hefty profit since the hardware will be sold at a profit. |
Before that "Fusion" leak, I had predicted Nintendo would unify into a single system that accomplishes both in mid 2013...
I still stand by that prediction. Nintendo will have a single system that is both a handheld and home console, lol
