Considering the margin Nintendo likes to make on their products the proposition of PS3/V might be very price competive. Then people might say that option is superior because you can really take the game with you and Wii-U looks bad for not offering a feature and being expensive considering what it offers. It could very feasibly go either way. I just trust more in the company that has shown us games doing it and is motivating enough to have 3rd parties implement this optional feature already. |
Even with the PS3 and Vita down to $199 each, Wii U will almost certainly be $349 or less. I don't see people seeing Nintendo's offering as too expensive for a brand new console unless it ends up higher.
And yes, it could go either way, but Nintendo has built the entire concept of Wii U around this streaming connectivity and, most importantly, have shown multiple times (particularly with DS) that they can make ingenious use of their concepts; ideas that most of us don't expect. Sony and the PS3/Vita connectivity need to prove to me that they can do the same.
