You beat me to it. This is the next powerglove (and I actually called it in an earlier thread), except this time Nintendo is banking their entire next gen system on it. Smart.
Not only that, but they are giving you an incomplete controller. You have to get "peripherals" for it if you want something as everyday as a thumb-stick. So they will charge you piece by piece if you want to put together a controller that will play most 3rd party games.
Speaking of third party... with Nintendo in 3rd place amongst console developers, are any of them going to want to develop games for this thing? Developing games is becoming more and more expensive, especially with what is expected from the next generation. This doesn't make any sense for the Western market. Oh, thats right. Nintendo doesn't give a crap about the Western market. I forgot for a second.
Nintendo is expecting you to buy a giant DS. A system based on a gimmick. And you know what, the Nintedroids in this hemisphere probably will.
