PRO
1. As mentioned before, the biggest pro is 3rd party support from japan. Project x-zone, bravely default, shin megami tensei, monster hunter, etc... Expect games like this on the console.
2. If BOTW on the wii-u looks at least as good on the nx then we have the nicest graphics ever seen on a handheld, to the point that i might not care it's a handheld hooked up to a tv.
3. I take number 1 back, THIS is the biggest pro. Unified nintendo library. No longer will i long for the days that kid icarus or luigis mansion or mario 3dland be on a home console. 3rd parties could completely abandon this machine and, theoretically, we would still see a steady flow of games.
4. possible pricepoint of games: A new 3ds game is usually $40. If nx games are even $50 it would be worth celebrating. no see the number 4 con
CON
1. Crushed are the dreams that i can just buy one console to have all my favorite titles. No way in HELL multiplats are coming to this.
2. If we havn't seen things like party chats and industry standard online interactions on nintendo's home consoles by now there's no way there going to start with a handheld.
3. Nintendo handhelds are marketing more to kids than their home consoles are. I'm a little afraid of an overflow of titles like "Nintendogs", "imagin: style savyy" or just a barage of 2d styled games that are going to alienate me from the console. Need more metroid primes, 3d zeldas, 3d marios, splatoons, bravely defaults(2d i know), luigis mansions, and some new 3d designed, imagintive m-rated games (more like dishonored or dark souls, less like COD) on the console.
4. Pricepoint; Are we getting a handheld successor but paying for home console games? Will the new 2d kirby game cost us $60??? Will the price point at least vary on a large degree or are we going to be paying ps4 prices for 3ds games?
