Soundwave said: My personal take from what Nintendo has said. - Fusion platform is likely, but it won't be the only thing about the platform that's different. There is some new type of notable gimmick/novelty which is the centerpiece of the whole thing and they will hope "surprises" gamers. I'd expect something non-conventional. My persona guess is even the portable might have some thing that really distinquishes itself as very different from the DS/3DS and tablets/smartphones. I think form factor could be very different from a 3DS or even a tablet. Beyond that I'd expect something cheap ... fans here tend to look at everything through the prisim of "Sony/MS are doing X/Y/Z! Nintendo needs to do X/Y/Z to keep up!", but I don't think Nintendo agrees with this philosophy at all (for better of worse). I think what their hope for the NX is that it can hook a new generation of kids. If Nintendo's long term prospects are having game hardware sold mostly to 30-40 year old men who grew up with the SNES-GameCube ... that is a dead end long term. |
Nintendo doesn't need to copy Sony and M$, they are always unique and will always be
