Lets say we have 10 games for Wii U and 10 games for 3DS, on NX we could had 15 for home console and handheld in same time, thats 5 games more for handhelds and 5 games more home console then before, speaking theoretically. So I dont say if we had before for instance 5 games for handheld and 5 games on home console on NX we will have 10 games, but we could have 7-8 games instead only 5 for one platform. And again, it seem you don't understand, Nintendo cannot support separate handheld and home consoles effectivly anymore (same like Sony cant support PS4 and Vita, and because of that they completely abandoned Vita), they would need to kill one of them or to go with integrated platform, they decided to go with integrated platform, it best choice for them and consumers, like I wrote win-win for everybody. |
You are assuming a handheld component would take as long to develop games as a home console. It isn't 10 games for handheld and 10 for home console, and we can get 15 for both. The reality is more like in a year you can push out around 15 higher budget handheld, 10 higher budget Wii U and we could get around 12 with a unified library. So instead of 25 unique experieces, we get 12.
And I also get that Nintendo can't support a home console and handheld, I'm just looking at the best way to go about their hardware if their software is unified. If it is unified, then they also need to unify the hardware. As we can clearly see, unifying the software isn't in the best interest of gamers, and Nintendo can't support two seperate consoles, so in a sense, don't make two seperate consoles. Have a handheld that can link to any NX as a controller and you will essentially be GIVING the consumer something (multiple ways to buy the top teir console by breaking the cost up into parts), not taking something away.
