Anyway, to respond, I think that it doesn't work that way just yet for Nintendo, they are struggling to capitalize on the U, and tend to take more time to R&D their home consoles. I don't think it will come out in parallel with the new handheld.

Leaving my quote tree at lvl 4 to show how confusing your reply was.


Sorry but I thought that the "it makes sense" part of my response would make it clear. But I get what you're saying about the API thing which would then mean they wouldn't need PPC to be able to play Wii U games on the handheld because they're "absorbing" the wii u's architecture which I take to refer to the API and OS right? Ugh I feel like we've had this conversation before lol. I suppose I shouldn't be saying "emulation" since it's not the same thing.

As far as releasing the handheld and console at the same time, it won't matter as long as the API is in place right? Development of games on the handheld will also be development of games for the console. Also, they need to drop the wii u as fast as possible and 4 years is fine I think.
