At this point, I think it would be hard to determine what the price of the NX will be. If it is a console and handheld, having it at that price while keeping it at that price seems impossible. I don't think they can make it powerful and split while keeping it at 299, unless Ninten is willing to bleed to make a base...

I don't think Nintendo is willing to make a loss in hardware to get people on the NX, although if the mobile project make "Wii-DS like profits" I can see them becoming willing to take losses.

Yeah, I don't think so. I don't think there has been many, if any moments, where Ninten took a loss to make a base...? o:

I suppose it won't be a problem to get people to buy them separately, but getting them to buy them both while having the same software may be. o:

But if you only have to buy the software once, and can play it on the go it would be enticing. IF you had to buy the game twice to essentially play the same game then it will fail. Odds are, if they are going to share the same library, you will only buy the game once, but can take it anywhere with the HH.

My main issue is if they share the same software, what incentive is there to get both? What if people are just fine with owning one of the 2?
