I've looked at the mobile market, from a gaming standpoint, it doesn't make sense to make a 720p device if 98% of the games on mobile devices look like 360p or lower and the other 2% are racing games that aren't free to play.
Nintendo will have as it's only competitior the Steam Boy (which I predict will bomb SOOOOOOO HARD) and the Steam library is the one that is the most similar to mobile libraries: there's a lot of games, shure, but MOST of them play and look as absolute garbage, Nintendo instead with a low-medium screen will keep offering it's high profile games with extremely good quality that gives sense to the price of the game.

What the hell is the point of "great quality" if you don't even have the decency to go at least 540/720p in 2016? "nintendo quality" my ass.
|
the point is that at least the gameplay is good, while mobile games have repetitive gameplay, microtransactions and as I stated previously they don't even take advantage of the specs of the mobile devices in the majority of cases. plus if Nintendo released one year ago the N3DS for 150$ don't you think they could realize a 480/540p device for the same price if not even lower ?

You still didn't answer my question.
We all know the gameplay is good. However, there are times where even casuals will complain about the weakness and low resolution.
And the N3DS was a chance to squeeze out a bit more of cash out of the 3DS family. There's a bigger need for a higher resolution handheld for the NX than the 3DS, especially if the hybrid system-handheld rumor is true

I answered your question, verry simply there aren't high resolution games that take advantage of said resolution on whatever other device because it's the Handheld market. I agree that Nintendo needs to push power with their NXDS but I don't see them going further than 540p and honestly knowing their aproach to higher specs I would be surprised if they did so...

Many games can use the advantage of higher resolution.
It'll help Nintendo port games much easier. It'll also help 3rd party support increase dramatically.
Imagine all the ports Nintendo can potentially create by upping the resolution?
