Should Nintendo's next console be a microconsole?

no thanks, i prefer a megaconsole :)

Nintendo hasn't made one of those in 14 years now and I don't think that is going to change now. 

To compete in the 'megaconsole' sweepstakes making a system just marginally better than the PS4 wouldn't cut it because the PS4/X1 would have several year headstarts and a library of hundreds of games making Nintendo's offering a predictable third rung. The PS2 destroyed the GameCube largely on the back of a 20 million unit headstart, the PS4 would be looking at more like a 40+ million unit headstart. Game over before the game even begins. 

They'd have to make a PS5 (as in FIVE) level console before the two others ... something I don't think Nintendo has the gumption to do. The budgets on the games would be massive and their dev teams would have to quickly adjust once again to a generational leap forward. 

From a personal POV I'd like a megaconsole too, but I just don't see today's Nintendo going sniffing anywhere close to that. 

soundwave... sorry i can't take you serious, because your biased on everything nintendo related so... go to another place ;)

I'm pretty sure Soundwave is primarily a Nintendo fan, what part of his post do u feel is biased?
