Games gone open world alot more. Games like Skyrim werent available on ps2.

Uhh... Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind featuring similar open world gameplay came out on the original Xbox. The only reason that wasn't available on the PS2 was because it was a paid exclusive.

2 reasons. 

1. not possible. Wii U uses PowerPC which cant be just put into a handheld. Also it need 2 screen, again problem for handheld.

2. Image. There was a reason Nintendo released the wii and not just a motion controller for the gamecube.

1. Why can't a custom PowerPC based chip be put into a handheld? You're acting like ARM processors are magic. As for 2 screens, the DS says hello.

2.  Why wasn't the Wii U what you think the NX should be to begin with? People don't just buy new consoles for fun. I'm sure Nintendo would have been much happier milking the 100+ Wii owners than putting out the Wii U if power wasn't that big of a factor.

N64, Gamecube were both system with similar or even better power then their competition. Both didnt managed to sell nearly as many units as the Playstation did.

The Wii was different, less powerfull. It suprasses ps3 and x360 both.

So your argument is that in order to sell a lot of consoles, you need to have a less powerful and cheaper console? The PS4 says hello. Not only is it the most powerful, but it's also the most expensive, but still outselling the cheaper and less powerful X1 almost 2 to 1 worldwide.


Also why on earth do you think people would buy a console that is less powerful than it's predecessor?

"Hey look at Mario Kart 9! See how it looks noticably worse than Mario Kart 7, even though it runs on much newer hardware."

I'm sure that would go over like a lead zeppelin.
