We'll buy day one, but we have preteens that will demand it. I am excited, but I want to see what this does to the handheld market. Are they going to slow development on 3DS and switch to a more smartphone style handheld to use the NS carts? If not, then they're not really doing themselves any favors making this a portable system. They're still going to have to develop games twice.

Why would they develop games twice?

Didn't understand that part either.

From.what I see is the same game for both. Different as they are doing now with some Wii U and 3DS, in that case they are developing two games.

I think that the way they are taking is better economically for us

looks like its gonna be a nice system. hopefully it will have some kind of compatibility with the Wii U and 3DS.

Yes, I mean that if they don't make a smaller handheld with a lower price point, they're still going to end up developing for both 3DS and the NS. It'd be a smarter move to create a smaller handheld that handles the games like the NS rather than continuing to develop for the 3DS.
