Remove the Gamepad and 1GB reserved for the OS insanities, suddenly you have a reasonably powerful system for a reasonable price, i.e. it would be possibly to hit $/€299 with a game included, plus Nintendo making profit right out of the gate. After the 3DS, this is yet another case where Nintendo drove up the hardware price due to the inclusion of features that don't hold much value; and the price is going to hurt them. The whole idea that the Wii didn't get quality third party support due to a lack of processing power is inherently flawed. To all those people who in all those years insisted that Nintendo would have gotten ports, if their hardware was in the same ballpark as the 360 and PS3, what do you say now? This isn't about Metro, but all those other games that won't be coming. |
Wouldn't have happened with more powerful hardware either way. We both know U.S. third parties have a grudge against Nintendo. But back to my original question; you didn't care for the controller? I know this is completely off topic, but what would have been impressive for Nintendo to have done? Is the controller too much of a "me too" or should they have gone a standard controller, more power/profit, for the same price?
