| Slimebeast said: That's only based on what I've heard so many times over the years. "Nintendo will be forced to do a SEGA". Perhaps ditch home consoles first, no wait... handhelds are in trouble too because of smartphones. I certainly hope that will never ever be the case. I love what Nintendo is doing, that long and stable heritage, I want them to remain unique and exclusive. What do you think? What if some day when handheld sales are struggling, Apple comes and offers a huge sum of money for an exclusive deal to put Nintendo games on iPhone? |
As of now it doesn't look like Nintendo's Handheld market is going anywhere. The 3DS has topped out the Holiday Season for it's past two years on market and it currently sits at 30+ Million, which is a pretty nice number. I'm sure Nintendo can keep their Handheld business going, if anything.
I think Nintendo games would be awkward on purely touchscreen. Nintendo would probably decline the offer due to what they've recently said regarding turning third party. (How they'll never do it, it would "de-value" their IP, etc.)
Although, the future you portray is quite interesting.
