You avoided his question and I think we both know why.
What I do not understand is why so many people are treating this console like it is a home console. It is not. It is a hand held. And because of that, this technology is actually cutting edge if true. Also, it is important to note that Nintendo have 0 issues getting great third party support for their hand held conoles and Pokemon mainline titles come to their hand helds. Eurogamer missed the mark on that front. What we are getting, if played properly, are series like Bravery and Monster Hunter back on televisions because those are primarily hand held series. This could be a really good idea. It is also NOT A HOME CONSOLE. With that said, Nintendo will be backing themselves into a corner for their next home console. They now MUST make a console that is on par with or above the standards of the time because if they do not, there will be absolutely no reason to buy their next home console. If this rumor is true... I am not saying this is true. But if it is, some of you are having a very hard time coping with the fact that Nintendo's next console is NOT a home console. |
I think you are missing the point. If the rumors are true, Nintendo is seemingly done with home consoles. They are basically making a handheld that can double as a home console thanks to the dock that comes with it. Which is fine, since without the casuals that flocked to the Wii for the first few years, they just can't compete against Sony and MS. The problem, though, is the handheld market is a dying one. And this is obviously not going to appeal to core gamers shopping for a home console, many of who will just get the much more powerful PS4, or maybe wait for word on the extremely more powerful Neo. Really, if this is not successful for them, I would imagine they will go all mobile.
