What lessons did Nintendo learn this gen you think?

If Nintendo bets on themselves,  they can get a nice contract on the chipsets for a friendly price.  

Yeah that's the other obvious benefit of the Fusion concept too, economies of scale,

Lets say they want to ship 15 million portable versions and a more modest 4 million home versions in one fiscal year ... that comes out to

15 (x1 Samus processor) + 4 (x3 Samus processors) = 27 million Samus processors

I'd bet they'd get a much nicer deal from their chip providers ordering in such high volume like that. Sure beats ordering 3-4 million Power PC processors and Wii U GPUs like they are right now per year. Obviously the way things are now they probably have little to no leveraging power in getting a better price on their Wii U components.  

Nintendo needs to figure out how to remain profitable, without gimping the HW too much.  The idea of combining or chip stacking mobile tech. (which is very energy efficient) seems like something Nintendo would go for .
