    Well this has been going around the internet for quite some time...at some point last year in a shareholders meeting at Nintendo, Iwata talked about how he wants their next home console and handheld to be "closer," as in, being able to use them more in connection with each other. And people are calling this the "Nintendo Fusion," where the home console and handheld are pretty much one in the same. (imagine, the Wii U, but with the Gamepad instead being a 3DS which you can of course use portably) What do you think of the idea of the Nintendo Fusion?

    I really don't like it to be honest, and I'm hoping Nintendo doesn't opt to do this for their next console and handheld. Sure, more connectivity between the two would be cool, like cross-buy with Virtual Console games or something like that, but I really like having the separate handheld and home console. Home console and handheld games really have a different feel from each other...I can't really explain the different feel, but I'm sure most of you probably know what I mean. But what I'm saying is that I don't want to be playing the same home console game on a handheld, I like to have different experiences with different consoles.

    I hope it's not so close.
    I liked how the GBA had the GameCube thing (forget it's name) and how miis could be swapped with the DS and Wii, but I don't want a handheld home console.
    I mean, that's why there are two categories, one at home and one anywhere and small.

    I don't think Nintendo will end up doing that since the PS4 and Vita have something where some games can be played on both systems. I also don't see why Nintendo would mix them since there both still selling good worldwide.

    ^I agree with Gameguy. Nintendo turning into something that is already being done by another company & a rival company at that just isn't how Nintendo operates. Nintendo has always marched to the beat of their own drum & to expect them to become anything like any of their rivals would be a HUGE mistake. Nintendo is never going to become like Sony & to think so otherwise is foolish (impo).

    I agree with both of you too, although if anything, I really just think Iwata meant there will be a bit more connectivity with both their next home console and handheld due to having the NNIDs. The 3DS only recently acquired them, so they can probably do a bit more with them on their next consoles with some eShop connectivity. I think fans just started going crazy with the idea and now expect this "Fusion" console thing.

    Impo; I just think that every one would LIKE it if Nintendo were to do more stuff the way that Sony has already. And my response to that would be; 'In your dreams.' XD
