I understand this point, but look at it from an SDK standpoint. How feasible would it have been for Nintend to offer an amphibious SDK, one which leveraged SD/cost-effective development, and one that leveraged HD development, the HD one being evolutive, improving over time. I know this is all in hindsight but assuming forsight was 20/20 how feasible would this option be?
