Nintendo portable consoles
What do you think is the future for Nintendo's portable consoles after the 2DS XL? Another DS line up? Will the DS line end here and another new line take its place?

@CrustyDDingus Okay but it has to be a type of mushroom

@JRVanguard A mushroom that they'll put a copyright claim on all other mushrooms that look like it.
They're going to have to up the game if they're going to have a serious chance to survive I think. Maybe a remake of a snes style console with VR capability and equivalent or better specs than ps or xbone. At the moment whilst they are dominating the hand held market the switch is not really a serious contender. It's a shame really, they make some good games at times but the hardware is not competitive at the momemt.

@UnrestrictedHappy Hardware isn't everything. It's the games and innovation that bring people to Nintendo. Yes Nintendo is a big competitor in the gaming industry.
@SW-User not denying they are still a force, I still use my Wii a lot for group gaming, it's fun for parties etc, but I have never really used it for solo play. I personally find it too limited in the areas I play most so it's only logical for me to use a system I prefer. I only reference hardware in as much that they always seem underpowered and graphically dated in comparison. I like Nintendo's spirit though and hope they can stay the distance..
They are trying to kill the 3DS and 2DS with the Switch- that system alone will not do it- and they will not admit to it. But the one after it- or version 2 of it- will- Look how many great titles we got for the DS , 3DS and 3DSXL, see and coming out now? No- because manufacturers and gaming companies KNOW this.
The are fucking stupid by biting off the hand that feeds them.

@SW-User I am not upset, But the stupidity of Nintendo amazes me- as you do not see Sony and MS shooting themselves in the foot as much as Nintendo does. The Game Cube was their worst selling system two systems later, the WiiU is very close those low numbers. 2017 an done still play play a audio CD on a Nintendo system. Much less a DVD or a BluRay. And a cell has more functionability than a DS does. trophy/achievement support, there is none. It's pathetic how Nintendo live still lives in the 1980's. If the three-they are the weakest.

I think there's a possibility that the console that follows the Switch could take over the 3DS as Nintendo's primary handheld

Probs just have to wait and see what they make.
