I don't see much potential and I've had the system for five weeks now.
It's Nintendo's version of a 360/PS3 ... which is great for Nintendo fans that aren't used to HD graphics, but that's about it.
The Mario Chase mini-game in Nintendo Land is the one game that really uses the two screens well, but I haven't been impressed too much with any of the other uses and I simply don't think there's a lot of games you can build around this idea.
I have it because I have to have one to play Nintendo's franchises. And I want to see Mario/Zelda/Metroid/DK/etc. in HD.
That's it. I think it's sales are going to fall off a cliff in the next few months, just wait and see. The marketing has been terrible and the casual audience will abandon Nintendo. Wiimote was hot for 2006, this tablet screen is not on anyone's radar for 2012/13. I barely hear any of my casual game playing friends even mention this system and none of them bothered to buy one. They were going crazy for the Wii in 2006.
