Interesting article you clipped, thanks! What I'm wondering is whether the N3DS will eventually have some sort of mobile game app download functionality included, in the same way that WiiWare apps were available for the Wii. Isn't that the core essence of what the Apple App Store has brought to the table? If they do provide for it, then they're basically going back on what they said. It's going to take balls of steel to resolutely offer only boxed cartridge games. And pray that games are all 100% top quality, because there have been game reviews of poor quality cartridge games in the past for the SNES, N64, Gameboy etc, so that's another problem Nintendo need to address.
