You seem to have a reply to every argument, don't you? ;)

I'm actually quite eager to hear your thoughts on these latest rumours from Eurogamer. I see that you're not buying in to it, but let's just say that if this were true... How do you think it would fare?

I haven't seen any indication for its retail price, but I assume it would be around $250. That's too expensive for a handheld. The design is not appealing for home use. It's a device that tries to cater to different needs at the same time, but in the end serves neither really well. It could still be moderately successful (50m lifetime) because of Japan's preference for handhelds and the strength of Nintendo IPs globally, but that's pretty meh all around. It isn't an idea that I would have greenlit if I had any say at Nintendo.

What would you have greenlit then? What kind of a console would you make?
