3. I dont agree.

"NX will be released as different 2 consoles that work like Playstation Vita and Vita TV."

^ makes sense.

"The performance will be similar to the performance of the wii u. Could be a little bit more or less powerfull."

^ does not make sense.

PS4 is like 5-10? times the power of a wii u or something silly like that.
The homeconsole NX needs to be more powerfull than a Wii U, if its going to get any 3rd party support.

^ this.

It can work if they decide they wont even try to get any 3rd party onboard.

Then the 200$  PS TV / Vita like idea can work.

And it ll probably work better than the Wii U + 3DS does currently (Im talking about 2016 sales rates for both).

However Mobile phones are a ever growing threat for handheld consoles.

With a homeconsole that weak, you might risk "gamers" skipping it, and just simply playing smart phone games all together instead.

If both uses the same hardware (because both want to run same games) they cant make the home console version much more powerfull then the handheld (because most likely they have to stick to ARM-Chips or something linke Intels Atoms).

Otherwhise the handheld could play many games the home console gets which would be silly. As far as I know its not possible to release a handheld with ps4 power at an reasonalbe priece right now. And even if you do it, it would need fences and a BIIIIG battery (like portable gaming laptops). There is a reason that this super slim gaming ultrabooks (like razer blade 14 - 2000$+ priecetag) are THAT expensive, and thats just about the same power as ps4.

 

I dont think nintendo wants to get full third party support. Games like witcher, gta, elder scrolls and co wont be available on NX.

Maybe the will get fifa and other games, that will also still be released for 7th gen though.

 

Did you looked at my photos? Sure the ps4 is like 5-10 times stronger, but does it really look 5-10 times better? especially in regrads of cartoony games.

I doubt that games like mario kart would look significant better on the ps4 then on wii u.
