| Soundwave said: It's a pretty clever way for Nintendo to get potentially several million mini-servers worldwide without paying a dime because consumers will be covering the cost. If they're smart it could work like this Regular Console NX = a little better than the PS4 Regular Console NX + SCD Device = on par with PS4K People who want the highest end graphics can pay a premium for it, that's fair. Nintendo gets free servers. Win win all around. |
This exactly! Basically creating and establishing an online community driven by the gamers. This has the potential to substantially change how many people view Nintendo's online infrastructure. Not only that but how cool is it to think that instead of paying for a service like Xbox live or PSN, Nintendo wants to compensate each SCD owner for sharing your processing bandwidth. Since it essentially frees them up from having to establish such large off site servers, If they can effectively showcase how this device could pay for itself. It's going to be a major hit! I think I'm actually more excited about the SCD and how it will all work together than the actual console.
