What Iwata actually said was this: "Though I cannot confirm when it will be launched or any other details of the system, since I have confirmed that it will be 'a dedicated video game platform with a brand new concept,' it should mean that we do not intend it to become a simple 'replacement' for Nintendo 3DS or Wii U." And that's it. The key word is simple. As in merely. It's not merely a replacement. It's not simply a replacement. It's more than that. What he did not say was that it is not, at all, a replacement, because it is. It's just not as simple as that. It's not PS3 to PS4. It's not just a rudementary upgrade of one platform. It's a new concept. And that new concept is, obviously, the unification of both platforms. It's not simply a replacement for one or the other, it's a unified replacement of both at the same time. What it is not, and what it has absolutely never even remotely been purported to be, is some illusory third pillar. |
Do you remember how Sony talked about PS3 compared to PS2.......
Also handhelds are dead. We're not going to see another majorly successful dedicated handheld console anymore.
