Wow, the way some of you saw the word 'mobile' and ran with it...
For one thing, this would not in any way shape or form be innovative. When he said mobile game he did not mean cell phone game. Just that you can take it with you, with the hybrid console/portable all but confirmed.

What I think it will be, and what I have seen others speculate is this: Think of it has taking the Wii U idea of off screen play and taking it a step further. You still have a console plugged into the TV and you still have a controller with a screen except for this time it can be taken on the go.

But what I think the true innovation everyone is excited about is that the console part actually boosts performance. Playing on your tv get the full eye candy. Take it on a road trip as a replacement for the 3ds, drop the visuals down a bit ,and you don't need as much processing power.

People complaining about getting neck problems and headaches from something they haven't tried...
And how will this technology survive without support from all those people with only one eye?
Gimme a break...

Edit: I don't care if Nintendo goes for the tech or not, but to say it isn't fun or not ready yet sounds silly. Sure, I can't run around and punch things like real virtual reality, but any game with a first person PoV will vastly benefit this from an immersion standpoint.

@Feremiev correct. I don't think anyone here watched the PC game segment where the Eve Online creators showed off a space shooter built with Oculus support. If this were Starfox people would lose their minds.
All the negative comments here read as if these people haven't improved things since the Virtual Boy. Hands on tests of Oculus a year ago were positive. Other than some people still getting a little motion sick I haven't seen any complaints about it.
