This sounds very plausable.

It also goes with other rumors that were concerned about the price.

It's probably gonna be pricy, and that is not a good thing. This could work, but would have to be priced on the range of a handheld console. If its not, handheld customers won't get it and thats where the biggest chunk of Nintendo's market is.

I still think it will fail despite all. Because i don't see Nintendo beeing agressive with its pricing. But... if it does get positioned as a handheld console, that is pretty much a monopoly for them. The Vita hardly twitches with life (though it lingers) and the other home consoles wouldn't necessarely be competitiors.

But it also seems to be a home console, so the higher price(more than a handheld normally has) wouldnt be much of an issue for them, assuming that Nintendo dosent screw up in any other sector.

Also on the power side, it could be more powerful than it actually is.It could be optimized to make most of the chip, and if Im not mistaken its also custom made right?Not to say that the OS is from Nintendo, which might improve the overall performance.I mean, I dont understand much about these things, but thats what I believe.All in all, this is still a rumor, so lets all take it with a grain of salt.
