And I dont expect Nintendo to release a $299+ console next gen. If they do go for the unified Handheld/console then a believe we could see each being sold for $199 or so. The handheld version being somewhere between Vita & Wii U and the console being somewhere between Wii U & PS4.

My bad, I thought you were assuming, like a lot of people that the portable and console would have the same specs. Will it be possible to get the wii u soc or something close to it down to power consumption levels appropriate for a handheld? Say 10 watts or so? Consider the wii u consumes something like 33 watts under load and is using a 40 nm process I believe.

Whoops I should have waited a moment to reply to ur last post lol but I dont know a whole lot about specs so I cant really answer ur question. I just assume since Vita is currently $199 (I believe at a profit) that a moderate power boost could be that price in a few years.
