One problem with a unified console (I assume you mean both in one) is that a likely outcome would be the thing being too costly to sell a lot, or too weak to be appealing. Both of those factors could affect sales. If done right, though, it could help shave off waning interest on both fronts and combine them into one profitable platform.


Agreed. The problem would obviously be power related because a handheld is usually very weak and a console needs to be very powerful. If you're going to combine the two, both of them need to meet the console side of the expectation spectrum and that would put the price of the unti far out of the handheld side of the equation.

Part of the reason why Nitnendo handhelds have always sold so well is because they are cheap and affordable. This wouldn't be the case with a next gen console like system.
