Look how far Arm tech. has come along, imagine 2-3 yrs from now.

Nintendo literally could have a "big brother" higher spec'd Arm console, and the lower HH version with toned down res/effects.

If it wasn't for all this "Wii U absorbed into next console talk" that just adds confusion, the Arm consoles seems like the path Nintendo and its devs want to go.


I think they literally could even just take 2-3 of the same system on cores (with the CPU + GPU) and just plop two or three of those into a small microconsole casing -- voila, now you have something with more juice that can run on the TV at 1080p. That would probably also allow Nintendo to get the said System on Chip for even cheaper as it would be in high mass production. 


Are you referring to Wii U's chips?  They'd have to shrink it obviously, but that might work for the HH, not sure how multiple would work on the home con.
