Is Nintendo catering to Japan with the Café portability?

I don't believe Café will really be portable. The controller may be able to stream video from the console, say, within Wi-Fi range. Anything more than that will require a lot of processing power on the controller, making it a full-fledged portable gaming system which wouldn't be cheap.

And I agree. But it might be Nintendo's way of going after those who play their handhelds a lot at home for example.

The Café could have a bunch of small games, where it could easily play several of them at once, and stream each game to the respective player.

Yes I absolutely agree with that. It would also be the first console you can play while taking a shit.

As for playing multiple games on different controllers, that would be really cool. It might happen but then those games would have to be specifically made with the limited shared hardware in mind. Maybe for some downloadable games.

Exactly. And games like Brain Age fit very well with that concept and maybe emulation of old titles would work too.
