It would look beyond horrible on a HD TV. 3DS is what, 240p?

400x240, or 800x240 for 3d

The bottom is 320x240

So it would have approximately 1/22 the amount of pixels of a 1080p screen for the top screen

You're Gonna Carry That Weight.

Thanks, that's what I figured.

So then yes, it would look terribly bad. Maybe both the top and bottom screen on the GamePad's screen would look okay, but anything else... no.

If you want to play 3DS games, get a 3DS.

I do think the Nintendo Fusion however is like the WiiU Lite. Fully portable form factor of the WiiU Gamepad + WiiU games + 3DS games + optional TV support.

I predict NX launches in 2017 - not 2016

I thought Nintendo was actually already researching the possibilities for something like this... Not to say they'll actually do it, but I seem to remember something like this was spoken about sometime in the past...
