I think a Fusion platform could do reasonably quite well for Nintendo, but their execution needs to be *miles* better than their sloppy Wii U/3DS launches.

Super Mario Galaxy 3, Mario Kart 9, Animal Crossing Next, IMO should all already be in development for it *now* so that they're ready or almost ready for launch by spring/summer 2016. No lazy sequels ala NSMBU either ... I'd push the dev teams to make each installment of these titles the best possible. They should have an all-purpose "Nintendo Amiibo Universe" title too ala Skylanders by 2015/16. 

There should be at minimum 2 big Japanese third party games early on too ... a Monster Hunter 5, Yokai Watch 3/4, Dragon Quest XI ... that type of thing. 

They should make sure they have one killer app for launch and one more killer game 2-3 months after launch to prevent the dreaded post-launch lull.

I wouldn't go crazy courting third parties, but I'd sit down with a few key third parties and have very frank, open discussions. No bullsh*t, lets make some real deals here that are win-win for both sides. 


The next Pokemon RPG after X or whatever would take forever to be made if every game is held to Wii U graphics ot better now. over 700 Pokemon models and hundreds of attack animations is thei first hurdle. I don't see GameFreak supporting this unless Intelligent system, Monolith, and EAD help them out.

And what's your LT prediction of 3DS and Wii U? Because fusion needs to outsell both of those combined. Other wise a good handheld and a Nintendo home consoles with poor sales will still be the model.
