The problem with something like this is that its neither one thing or another. As a tablet, will it do everything an iPad/Android Tab/Surface will do? As a console will it have the power to compete with XBone or the PS4?

Also, Nintendo do seem to struggle to appeal to your "big spender" 20-something "bloke" market, and the games they're showing in the trailer do seem to look like they'll be aimed at the current WiiU market rather than expanding.

Also, who launches a console like this in February/March? I'd have thought a launch in July/August would have been more likely, with a publicity drive up towards Christmas.
