It means all those cell-phone games can be ported over pretty easily. All those indie darlings on mobile, one would hope.
Menus alone would justify its inclusion for me. Not strictly menus but I tried the disgaea game at the demo and moving a square selector around using the stick was a nightmare compared to touch screen stuff I got used to. Sure it more or less worked but compared to the more free form thing I am now used to, or a mouse, it was not good. Maybe a proper dpad would have helped but probably not a lot.
Not a launch title.
It's more of a wait and see sort of thing. There's really not much for either system I'm that interested in, but I really love the series, so it's complicated...
It's shaped like a tablet, that's about it. It's not gonna have a web browser or streaming apps at launch, so it's entirely a gaming console in function.
I mean, depends entirely on whether you call portables consoles. The 3DS definitely isn't a phone or tablet, so "portable console" is probably the best descriptor.
