Seems to me like a lot of "It's different, we're afraid of it" is going on here. It seems like you haven't actually thought about it yet.

I'm not sure whether it will work, but I can see several valid uses for multiple screens. Example. Where the SP seems to be leaning towards tactics games, what if you have one screen with your active play and another with your party's stats? That way you can more effectively use them.

Or in an adventure type game, a play screen and a map screen?

Or in any sports game, a play screen and an overview screen?

Or in any wireless LAN game a play screen and a chat screen?

Or in an RTS game a separate screen to keep track of your individual units and their orders?



I'm not saying it will be a success. There are a LOT of factors in this, and I think a big part will be how well the software is developed around the new format. All I'm saying is you should at least CONSIDER giving it a chance. It could be the best thing Nintendo ever did. It probably won't be the worst.

At least they're brave enough to challenge the norms.
