Re: Talking Point: Nintendo's Continued Commitment to the 3DS Makes Sense

@Dakt Naaa, the NX has all but been confirmed to be a hybrid console/handheld. there's actually a news story up on the front page about it. Nintendo is simply following the trend. The 3DS took over a year to get into full swing, with Pokemon games still releasing on the DS after it's launch. In fact I distinctly remember everyone saying it was dead.. Now it's among the best selling handhelds of all time, go figure.

There will still be a place for the 3DS because it has a fantastic games library and they know it. The NX will technically be it's replacement, albeit a more expensive one. Even the Pokemon games are swapping to NX int the future. Nintendo bringing both it's development factions into one console/handheld is brilliant. Imagine a new Nintendo console that you could unplug and take with you, and had the combined library of the 3DS and WiiU.... that's what you call pure Nintendo bliss.
