I think this is Nintendo's best idea yet. Putting both of their best selling consoles into one whole console?! Genius. It should work... |
But it was the motion controls and cheap price point that sold the Wii to casuals for home entertainment use. The touch screen worked on the DS because it was a fantastic input device for portable gaming. But they are two different sets of wants/needs. I really think Nintendo made the mistake Sony did, they just did it backwards. Unlike Sony who thought what would work on their home console would work on their handheld, Nintendo thought what would work on their handheld would work on their home console.
