I just want Apple to team up with Nintendo and make a home console + Apple TV.

I’ve always felt Apple and Nintendo have a common thread that rarely gets appreciated.

That would be awesome, but it’s difficult to see how that would fit in with Nintendo’s vision, which seems to be merging console and mobile gaming. How do you do that without competing directly with iPhone/iPad?

Most of Nintendo's hardware obsession ends up being accessories more than core system tech. I would like to believe that Nintendo bringing ideas for hardware with Apple executing would work really well. Plus, Apple could use a bit more, "Friendly for children aesthetic" and not so much "Future Techno Glass World".
