| NintendoPie said: Why do you keep saying Nintendo will have an Android OS? I don't think they'd ever try to pair up with a CellPhone Company like that. It just doesn't seem like something Nintendo would do. Plus Sony might be moving to an Air/Cloud Type thing. (See "Sony to never release PS4?" Thread.) Which seems really probable. |
Android isn't a cell phone company, it's the OS Google created (well originally bought out) for mobile devices. I will agree I don't see much point in the Wii U using Android though, even a heavily modified version. The only advantage would be access to the Android market with all the little software apps and games, but if Nintendo gets involved in that it would have to be heavily modified (likely most apps would cost more so that Ninty gets something... also a lot of apps designed around the roaming capabilities of phones/tablets would be useless on the Wii U tablet)
Having said that... @ Superchink: What's this about Nintendo having a hand in designing Android OS originally?
Also I really don't think consumers of the nextbox will give a damn if it runs on Windows 8 or not, it's not going to provide people a real alternative to buying PCs/laptops.
