| TheSpindler said: I'm still not expecting a powerful Tegra handheld with a dock mode. WIth all these sourcesclaiming so though, more than likely I'm wrong, but for some reason I can't see Nintendo releasing this device people keep talking about. I'm expecting a handheld and a console, but not really a handheld, more like a companion device, not really thatpowerful, but more powerful than the 3DS able to play games on the go, companion games, and software exclusively for it, but not console games, and caoable of streaming like Wii U. |
The thing is, Nintendo's portable business is not a "companion" business, portables have outsold their consoles for decades now.
I may not personally like it, but making the console mode/set up the "companion/bonus" probably makes more sense for Nintendo. A lot more people buy their portables, that's just a cold, hard statistical fact. I suspect Nintendo is tired of their top games (Splatoon, Mario Kart 8, etc.) being locked off from their majority audience base.
