If 100 usd equals about 35 euro maybe, because 100 euro for a converter would be insane.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

I still play my N64, PS1/2 games etc. on my HDTV. I guess I just accept the game is gonna look bad. And never have that problem I see people complain about. Not being able to look at SD material again. There's some good though. The N64/GC/and NES are getting HDMI mods from people. Which will stop the composite/RGB/SCART limitations of the output picture. And no, this is real HDMI. It's not Composite to HDMI adapter. A video decoder board is connected to the consoles PPU/CPU directly. There is no interaction with the analog output anymore. So the consoles will get a real digital signal.

What currency converter are you using? $100 = 86 Euros, although something which costs $100 in America would cost 100 Euros in Europe.

It wouldn't be a convertor, it would be a full stand alone console.

To be honest going back and even playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 again on the Wii U was a bit of a rude awakening ... SD really looks terrible on HDTV sets. Thank god the Wii era is over, HD is soooooo damn nice on Nintendo titles. |
I think its safe to assume that under the purported Fusion concept, Nintendo wouldn't simply go for a gameboy player type home solution, to make it a unique and more lucrative option it would have to be stronger chips than whats inside the HH. So even if HH is launched first, the home version specs will most likely be locked in far before its launch, and IMO games would be designed on the higher end so it could be scaled down properly for the HH. I assume Nintendo will not have a disc reader for Fusion, so I wonder how much juice can they pack in their "microconsole".

Say buh bye to the disc drive.
It's unneccessary, backwards compatibility hasn't done sh*t for the Wii U either and it actually makes Nintendo more money to charge you again to re-buy back catalog titles rather than just letting you replay your 5-8 year old discs.
The next wave of Nintendo's 3DS style cartridges will likely go up to as high as 32GB anyway, which is the same size as a Blu-Ray disc.
The Wii U disc drive is horrid too, thing is ridiculously loud, it sounds like its having a seizure anytime Bayonetta 1 has a cutscene for instance. Nintendo never wanted to use optical discs in the first place, now they can finally be rid of them for good.
i remember when i played my gameboy games on tv with a super game boy.
i couldnt buy a gameboy and it didnt need batteries. and the resolution wasnt that bad compared to snes.
So, was ok. I lost all link cable battles with friends.
Now i think is totally different. Street pass is one of the concepts of 3DS, the resolution is also a problem...
But now you can play online, 3D is viable on tvs too.
Why not?

If anything is going, it's the cartridges, not the disk drive. The HH will be digital only while the console may have two variations; one with and one without a disk drive and more mamory.
Backwards compatability is going no where. Nintendo does not make more money from charging you to rebuy the same game. They waste recources remaking the same VC games over and over, and have you pay a repurchasing fee to cover that cost. On top of that, third parties have to remake each title again, wasting the same recources that could be used adding more games to the VC.
Nintendo all but confirmed BC on the next systems with its statement on consumer connections through a platform instead of hardware, where they specifically mention BC.
