Potential problems:
- Multitasking support. 2GB RAM means 1GB available to devs, a la Wii U. Increase it by one gigabyte further and then we'll talk.
- Physical controls. That'll not only make the bezels truly massive, that'll also limit space available.
- Processor: Let me guess, that's from MediaTek? Listen, I doubt that it actually runs at that speed for battery life, and I also doubt it's not one of those big.LITTLE processors where there are four cores that run fast and four cores that run slow for battery life optimization. And, well, GPU? CPU is only one part of the chipset.
Even if all eight cores ran at the same time, I doubt that devs will really he able to optimize for the hardware. That and HEAT PROBLEMS.
- Margins: Xiaomi makes cash off a hardware ecosystem, accessories and such, as far as I know. Nintendo doesn't, as such they'll probably need great margins on their hardware.
I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
