Well hypothetically if they're not willing to put all their eggs in that tablet console/portable hybrid ....
The New Nintendo Entertainment System:
- September 2016 Release (Should give them a comfortable 2 year head start)
- Built specifically for the US and European markets
- 4 TFLOP 20nm AMD GPGPU, customized by Nintendo, but largely off-the shelf saving R&D costs.
- 16GB DDR4 RAM + 4GB DDR3 (cheap) for OS
- No disc drive, runs 3DS like game cartridges (32-128GB)
- Can support 2K and 4K resolution games in some cases (4K TVs should be more commonplace by then)
- Break apart new motion controller, perhaps haptic feedback and/or a "central ball" that simulates force feedback/motion resistance when controller is attached?
- Will have a VR headset add-on (separate), can deliver higher image quality and better experience than PS4).
- Runs Wii U software in 4K resolution, but you have to download it from the eShop.
- Compatible with Wii/Wii U controllers.
- Perhaps Google or some other partner is involved with the system OS.
- Can stream a video signal to tablets for "off TV" play.
