I think they've tried everything with the 3DS ... small ... big ... even non 3D 3DS (lol) ... expensive ... mid-priced ... dirt cheap. 

The world has changed into a smart device world ... I think Nintendo making a "smart Nintendo" platform that maybe can run Android apps (which Nintendo can then make money off of rather than Apple or Google getting all that money) in this environment makes as much sense as anything. 

I'm not saying this will work ... it could easily fail. So could doing the same thing as they have been the last 5-6 years. For Nintendo there's no easy answers. 

That kinda happens when you make a string of stupid decisions on your console side for 20 years straight too. Aside from the Wiimote gamble, which paid off huge for a few years (mind you this is also an idea that Nintendo didn't invent, they bought the concept from an American guy who tried to sell it to Sony/MS first, and even then many Nintendo execs were against buying the tech, lol), the haven't been able to make a console without several huge errors since the Super NES. 

So, the one time in 20 years the portable division could use some help from the console side, and the console side is home, drunk, passed out and having pissed its pants. 

That is the dream. If NX can also have a playstore as well as a eshop or whatever, would be craycray.
