That's where I'm going to leave this conversation. Hybrid consoles aren't new, they were around since the 90's...Nintendo just made it more practical. Touch screens had been around before the DS...Nintendo just made it more practical. Motion controls were around before the Wii...Nintendo just made it more practical. I'm all for Nintendo making existing technology more practical mixed with their timeless IP, but let's not act like what they're doing is "new". And I'm totally fine with that. |
Doing something new doesn't mean you only use new things existing technology has many uses an example was with the DS where touch screens were around for ages but no one really found a use for them until the DS showed the potential of the tech this is what caused Apple to bring out the iPod touch and iPhone so that's a false notion that they don't do anything new they've been doing new things for ages raising the bar and finding practical executions is doing something new as it opens up the potential for more it's like in sports you still pass the ball and such to score it doesn't stop utilizing a new kind of formation from being new. Do you have examples of pre-switch hybrid consoles?
