Features such as? What has Nintendo really done in the past decade that's so great? Nothing I can think of that I care about. Regardless that assumes that if Nintendo stopped making hardware there'd never be any advancements made in gaming technology... oh wait shareplay.... VR.... Online Parties.... multi-touch.... Nintendo leaving hardware would not stop innovation. Amongst Mobile Hardware Manufacturers, Sony, Microsoft, Logitech, Razer, Oculus, and many other companies that may or may not exist yet, I think gaming hardware advancements would be covered should Nintendo dedicated themselves to software. Regardless I'm more than content with gaming hardware as it is, it's software that needs to be innovated, not hardware. |
Don't forget your console is now a streaming device, too. No need for a capture card.
The thing you have to remember about quite a few Nintendo fans is they believe only Nintendo innovates and others just copy. Of course, most true innovations occured during the first two gens of gaming, before Nintendo even entered the market. Since then, for the most part, we have really just been improving on old tech/ideas. Whether it be analog sticks, motion control, online gaming, etc.
