Except chips that powerful do exist and have for some time and are already in devices for under $300. The Nvidia Tegra X1 is in their Shield console and sold at a large profit for $200, the Apple A9X which is probably even more powerful is estimated to cost $35 a pop. Nintendo doesn't need a fat profit margin on their hardware nor do they need to use a 2K resolution screen or something crazy on their model. It's very feasible. Beyond that, even at $250 lets say ... what is a better value ... spending $300+$200 on a Wii U + 3DS XL ($500, so cheap right?) or getting a hybrid device that can play ALL the games on the go and on the TV for half the price and perhaps run Android apps and do other things too. Spending a bit more on the hardware so that it's powerful enough to be a competent console as well as a portable wouldn't be such a bad play for Nintendo, the value proposition destroys the failed model they're using now. |
Do not. I already know how you see hardware.
