Is Nintendo catering to Japan with the Café portability?

No, absolutely not... it makes no sense. They already have something for the handheld market, and creating competition for yourself is stupid. What will something like that be able to do that other devices can't?

If you want a home console and your kids each want their own handhelds, then buying a home console that includes enough handheld functionality to satisfy your kids seems like a smart thing to do. And buying an extra "handheld" for the Café will be much cheaper than buying a new 3DS.

This is still very loose of course, but since we don't really know anything about Café, it's what we have to go on. There might be a market for this and there might not. I don't know.

Loose indeed ;) but the wait is now almost inexistent.

This E3 is gonna be enormous.
