The hing is if NX isnt almost as powerfull or more powerfull than the PS4 and the XOne, and if its some crazy handheld/console hybrid itll get 0 3rd party support again, cause 3rd parties just wont bother developping for NX if it means they need to do a complete different game to be able to make it run in theyre console. And them we end up with WiiU all over again.


Not really, if it's a type of unified ecosystem where all or most games are available on both the handheld and console than the console will have all the support of the handheld and vice versa. If u combine 3DS and Wii U 3rd party support, it's really not that bad. 3DS gets solid Japanese 3rd party, both get solid indie support that will likely continue to grow, and both also get solid support from child/family friendly western 3rd parties.

Nintendo+Japanese 3rd parties+indies+family western titles gives Nintendo a steady stream of new releases. Any AAA western support is just icing on the cake.


Youre thinking a videogame thats a fusion of 3DS and WiiU, not a new videogame that does WiiU and 3DS at the same time. Cause lets face it if Nint wants this to work, a game will be required to run both as a handheld version and as a console version, if they let devs just pick one it makes no sense. And if a game needs to be both a handheld game and a console game ppl will have to develop exclusively for the NX or make a game they had no plan of having a handheld version work as a handheld. Most likelly 3rd parties will just not care if this is how NX turns out to be imo.
