Power talk is interesting but that is not the biggest part of this article.

"Nintendo seems set on trying to upgrade smartphone gamers."

This statement pushes harder at the basic design of the NX. It indirectly supports the Eurogamer article on the formfactor and initial thoughts the average joe is going to have about the NX. To me, that is not good.

Nintendo can't let public opinion be that the NX is just a gamer phone. It needs to be seen as a console with benefits of taking gaming on the go or on your big screen. The content, controls and definitely launch advertising will make or break this console. Just as the failed advertising broke the WiiU.
