Well first off, let me start by saying that I think the whole idea of the app is stupid and ridiculous (at least on the home console side). I can see a reason to have it when you're on the go, as having an app on your smartphone to take off some of the pressure of the console while not docked, that makes sense to me.

Now I hope this app fails and it makes them realize what a terrible idea it was, I can see them either releasing an update that would allow us to make lobbies and voice chat through the system (if it's possible). If it's not possible, I think they will add those features into the inevitable console revision that every Nintendo handheld goes through. They need to step up their game in this department. 

So you want console features into something that you're not even considering as a console ... quite fascinating

Where'd I say that at? I think it's a hybrid, both home and handheld console (btw I call handhelds consoles, cause that's what they are). Since they are taking pages from both their businesses, I think there will be a console revision in the future.
