Fei-Hung said: Sounds really expensive where you might end up with stuff you don't need if i think of practically using it: 1) as a home console, the controllers it comes with might not be good enough as they are designed to be used as a hand held. Meaning I'll have to buy a controller and a docking station. 2) as a handheld, you'll need a charger set, carry case and it will most likely be bigger than a 3DS and possibly a Vita, meaning it might not be easy to carry around in your pocket. I don't think it's complicated, but i do think for Nintendo to get this right, they will need to sell 2 bundles, one for hone gaming and one for portable. The home edition will come with a proper docking station and a proper joypad and the mobile one with a case and charger set. This way they can market is easier as well and costomers won't need to pay for this they don't need. |
Its normal for people to have to pick an accessory or 2 to make the most of system, but why would the docking station not come with the system? If the selling point of the system is in it being a hybrid (3 devices in one- for the price of one), it makes sense for them to deliver that in the box.

-Handheld Detachable Controllers
-Dock
-Charger.
Thats not a crazy amount of things in one box. Paying extra for a traditional controller isn't a biggie. I mean didn't everyone who owned a Wii buy an extra controller? There will of course be premium bundles which come with extras like a controller or carrying case.
