To be honest I think Nintendo should do whatever they like really. They aren't thick in the skull. Had one fuck up after many years of having a fantastic time. I know they have been talking about same OS and all that, but that's where Hybrid comes to mind for me. Just bring both the consoles together and make them play as many of the same games as possibly and cut the game droughts. Saying that Sony are just as bad with Vita, fuck all line-up coming for it, but avoiding quite months is what you want to do and Nintendo have probably done the best attempt in a long time. Respect to them=.
I love a discussion on idea on what maybe they should do, but at the same time I would rather them be completely unexpected with it. I wanna be surprised in a fantastic way just like this years E3, not expect nearly 80% of the console.

Hybrids will be a though sell simply because the consumer clearly wants diffrent experiences on different occasions. To cut it short, handhelds are for short burts of single-player gameplay ( "in the same room"), while home consoles are for more prolongued sessions of gameplay (with multiplayer or not).
A great example of why this is the case is the Vita. That console failed because it wanted to be a portable home console. It fell short on that because if you wanted a home console experience, you would actually buy a home console (at the same price btw - PS3 was also at $250).
So no, a hybrid console would be a terrible idea. At least at the current state of technology.

Well Nintendo IS going to have a unified OS and architecture meaning that all of their games will be on both platforms according to Iwata unless his words were misinterpreted.
