I think Nintendo should take a page from Sony with the PS4 and cut the bullsh*t with features that unnecessarily make hardware more expensive than need be.
Drop the dual screen. The second screen adds a large cost (the most expensive component of any handheld/tablet is the LCD screen, not the chipset or RAM). Today getting a single 5.5-6 inch decent quality touch panel (single screen) is dirt cheap. Opt for that. Dual screen also makes the system heavier and eats up internal space that could be used instead for a larger battery.
Drop 3D. 3D screens are far more expensive than regular LCDs that everyone else uses and are widely mass produced. 3D also requires double the back light of non-3D screens, killing your battery life and forcing you to have to go with a lower end chip. 3D also chews up processing power since the same image needs to be rendered twice to create the effect.
Ditch it. You can always release a 3D model later on when your base costs drop and Nintendo likes to revise their handhelds 3+ times each gen anyway.
Spend your money on a really nice chipset, don't cut corners on it, and a nice big battery that can run that chip for a comfortable 5-6 hours at least.
Get a decent LCD screen, but don't go crazy in cost here either. My 8 inch Samsung tablet that's over a year old has a basic 1280x720 LCD display and it looks great when I run Mario 3D World HD videos on it from Youtube. It's not even OLED. I'm sure Nintendo could get something similar in a 5.5-6 inch size a year from now for cheap. |
hm do you have a name idea too? like nintendo vita?
|
I don't get comments like this, do u honestly believe specs are the reason why Vita is doing so poorly?
|
Sony got lucky with the psp and tried the same trick again with the vita. there is just no market for a handheld that plays like a homeconsole, so yeah, the specs of the vita are the problem.
oh, and nintendo should make the (main)screen an OLED, they just look so much better.
