| Captain_Yuri said: Nahh, If they are gonna make a portable, I would rather them have only one (maybe in different sizes). Cause if there were gonna make two portable devices, y not just make one a console without a screen, battery and etc and use that extra savings to add more power? |
| WagnerPaiva said: No. I am sold in the unifying strategy. I think it is economical and brilliant. It is the blue ocean strategy all over again. While the big dogs bite their ears off with tons of variants and devices, let Nintendo have a simple elegant solution that will attend all your needs in one single device. It is genious. I see it becoming our favorite console very quickly. |
| wombat123 said: Honestly, I'd just keep the NS as the 'hybrid' portion of the 'Switch' platform then later make a cheaper handheld model and a stronger traditional console model by the end of 2017 -- like what if the meaning of 'Switch' was really the idea of switching your games between different platforms on the fly. If the rumors of easier porting and programming are true then it shouldn't be an issue to have a relatively unified library with three different devices. That's just my fantasy though. In reality, Nintendo will probably put all their eggs in the hybrid NS basket and I'll be left disappointed. |

| Ka-pi96 said: Nope. I don`t like handhelds anyways so if I wanted to play Nintendo games I`d much rather only buy 1 handheld than have to buy 2. |
| zorg1000 said: Nintendo releases revisions of all their portables so its very likely their will be a smaller, cheaper version to fully replace 3DS in a couple years. |
| SonytendoAmiibo said: What is the sense of keeping the 3DS going once the switch hits the market.The whole point of the Switch is to unify Nintendo's game development to ONE system. Nintendo would have to support two totally different pieces of hardware and gain no advantage. #KILLthe3DS. |
I updated the thread with a new question after your replies! Would you mind answer it? Do you like the xds fan concept?
