If the same games are playable on both hardware then whats the point of getting both or more accurately one of their hardware offerings will suffer in sales for this, unlike the current situation where you can get both and have different experiences.

Also if nintendo games are tailored to the the hardware then all those different hardware or whatever will essentially have to offer the same experiences, if there is a wiiU situation and people do not accept or generally just do not like what they have offered hardware wise and thier games on it, like the current wiiU tablet, then they will be in very dangerous situation.

Again a very bad business decision.

They are not in the business of selling hardware, they are in the business of selling software.

Also, there will be no issue of rejection because the future consoles will allow multiple forms of input much like the U is doing today. The concern is invalid.

Yes they are in the business of selling software and that is my point, if the hardware is unappealing like the wiiU gamepad and the games are made around the hardware then the software would not sell anyway.

You use the U to back up your case but the WiiU is a perfect example of consumers rejecting the hardware and the software around it. Also you cannot have multiple input methods into a unified system it would not work. For example if a game input method is the wiimote and its strengths how would you play that on the go on another platform?

You cannot just dismiss these concerns as invalid because you would like it to be invalid.

This is a very serious move for nintendo and I think people are underestimating the impact of this if it goes wrong.
