The only way I see a new Portable Console being made is: Download only, VC only GB, GBC, GBA, DS, 3DS, NES, SNES, N64, GameCube libraries. Nothing else. No new games.
I have no need for cloud saves. I want to be able to play the entire catalogue of NES, SNES, N64 games. Not just a handful of 1st party ones. I rarely play online.
@ Article Author: "The game has its tongue firmly in its cheek, although it’s a shame to see pregnant women running hysterically at the first sight of a roach invasion". ****** No, it isn't a shame, it's just hysterical.
I don't have internet at home. I can't be arsed to pay for the service when I'll barely use it. Locking out the VC to a pageant and online only is crap. Even if I had internet, I'm in south west PA. Internet speed here is atrocious. Can't even play mk7/8/8D, solution 1/2 or anything else. I tried.
These 10 NES games have been repackaged so many times... Original release Super Mario all stars Game boy classics Nintendo eReader Wii collection Animal crossing Wii VC WiiU VC 3ds VC
Zelda had a collection on the GameCube, but that was the only collection they had.
I will say one thing... It looks like the speed from Melee is back! This pleases me. Smash for 3/U was so slow. I never did play Brawl, how was the speed with that one?
Oh jeez... How many new amiibo will there be? Inkling Girl Ridley Snake Ice Climbers Pichu Pikmin astronaut... Forget his name... I forget how many were excluded from all next games...
The only game I downloaded on my Switch was Oceanhorn. It's a really good game but stiff. Had I known it would get a physical copy, I'd have held off. Though the markup is nuts. $40 for the physical but only $10 for the digital. The carts can't be that expensive to manufacture.
@ThatGiloFella Seems like a crap excuse to milk more money out. Just charge more up front or include it in the price as its already done. DLC that's already completed before a game launches is terrible.
1- no internet at home, so this will be a pass 2- nintendo needs to eat the card costs so that us loyalists aren't being screwed on each and every game.

Nothing else. No new games.
Re: Nintendo Is Considering A Successor To The 3DS According To Its New President
The DS line needs to end. Nintendo can't keep splitting their market. I'm seriously not liking this new guy so far.
Re: Ubisoft CEO Believes Future Of Games Industry Is Streaming, With Potential To Reach 5 Billion Players In Ten Years
Streaming WILL be the death of gaming!

Re: Poll: Which is the Best Super Mario Game?
Mario Brothers
Super Mario 3

Odyessy isn't that good of a game. Controls are slightly off and mario always points at a slight angle to the thing you want to be aiming at.
