Yeah. That's a hard sell. You think they should push a premium handheld, like say... the PS Vita? How's that working out for Sony?

And if the Vita had Monster Hunter, and Mario Kart, and Pokemon, and Animal Crossing, and Mario 3D Land, and Zelda ... might be a different story. Just maybe. 

By this logic Nintendo shouldn't even make a home console again ever, since the Wii U is actually selling the same as the Vita is worldwide. 

Ohh right! Because Uncharted, Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, LittleBigPlanet, Persona, Final Fantasy, Minecraft, or Need For Speed definitely aren't system sellers! Those games sell like gangbusters on every platform they've been on, but not the Vita. Why is that? Maybe because people don't want console-like extended play sessions when they only have 15-30 minutes at a time to get their game on. The problem with the Vita wasn't the games. It was the experience. It was the fact that it launched for $299, and still costs $199. People simply do not want to spend that much on portable game consoles.
