@monkbent Thoughts about Nintendo moving to an amazon type model where it controls the key ecosystem elements it's best at, outsources OS? -
@darkarconio no, they're as vertical as it gets.
-
@monkbent I guess they view OS as a core competency, even if we don't think that's their strong suit from outside - like pre OSX Apple? -
@darkarconio the OS is unimportant in the context of gaming
-
@monkbent Except isn't a huge problem for nintendo that mobile OSes makes the OS matter, cause more general devices are more useful? -
@darkarconio right - the problem is general purpose devices like the iPhone have "good enough" gaming for people who previously bought DS
-
@darkarconio the solution, though, surely isn't to try to differentiate in an area they have no expertise in
-
@monkbent Sort of like what RIM did, except don't build an OS and emulator, but build exclusive hardware/software combinations on top. - 7 more replies

@monkbent relevant to the high density discussion you had (which was great by the way!) -
@kirkburgess it's super relevant. That's what I was driving at by connecting it to Microsoft.
