I think consoles are done in Japan period. Nothing will "dominate" that market, Wii U will sell like the GameCube, the Wii Sports/Fit boom was a temporary 3-4 craze in Japan that faded away.

The next Nintendo game machine will be a console/portable hybrid probably specced similarly to the Wii U, just entirely portable.


How, pray tell, can a console be a "console/portable" hybrid, if it's "entirely portable". Doesn't that just make it what the name impies? A portable?

 

And though it doesn't really need to be said, again, I don't think Nintendo is getting out of the home console market anytime soon. Even IF Wii U only sold as well as GC or N64 lifetime, they've got Scrooge McDuck money sitting in the bank thanks to the Wii.

It's been widely speculated, but I imagine it would be a device that is fully portable but can also wirelessly transmit it's video signal to your television so it can function as a home console as well. Basically the reverse of the current Wii U.
