Nintendo Gaming / RE:Bloomberg: Nintendo to announce next-gen machine at E3

i think that a gamecube sp-like device would solve a lot of the issues nintendo faces in launching the next console. imagine this if you wil.....

 nintendo has to know or at least pretend to know (heh) that theyhave to match hardware with sony and microsoft in order to compete on an even playing field next go round. they are always looking to cut corners and save a few bucks while designing a new console. what do we know is going to be standard on the next console? i think hard drives and some form of dvd drive and built in modems/broadband connections and backwards compatibility. nintendo wants to be the cheapest, but at a cost to losing a hardware feature. a GCSP would kill 2 birds with one stone, if u want to play gamecube games, you can own the GCSP, seeing how they have to compete with the psp in some form, they dont even have to spend money on r&d, so that frees up more money so maybe that will not remove any features other consoles are offering. also by doing this, nintendo isn't restricted to sub par graphics that dont take full advantage of the connection feature. think about it, a portable game system with GC quality graphics, with a large user base, thats like a drunk prom date, the temptation is to tempting not to do it .

back to reality, i dont know what it'll be, but we know one thing for sure, it'll be something.
