| Nintentacle said: If Microsoft made a handheld, what do you think would happen? I don't think it would be successful. I think Microsoft would make the same mistake Sony did with console-like games on handhelds. It would be more successful than Vita thought, since I think Halo and the other ones would sell more than Uncharted, and there would be more marketing. |
They already have... Surface. THey recognize that it is too late for them to get into the handheld market. Nintendo owns it anyway. THey know that it is going to shrink and die over the next 5-7 years anyway. People won't bother with handhelds by then and will only just use their smartphone or tablet that they will already have. It used to be that you didn't get a cell phone till you got to college, then it was mybe in your last year of High school. Then it became younger and younger. Now, parents buy their kids smartphones instead of handhelds when they ate 10-12 years old. As the trend continues, the smartphones have become so cheap, they will soon just get them smartphones when they are 5 years old. You don't have to turn on the cell service, they can just use wifi for internet and to download games. This is where it is going.
It is near the end of the end....
