Could Nintendo's next home console entice the early adopters/graphic whores?

I haven't read a few screens back to be sure, but the Dreamcast VMU had a screen on the controller. It was hardly used, but the option was there to select plays secretly in Football games, have a compass or map on the controller, or whatever.

I'm not sure why I would want a console stream the entire game to a control screen, I do prefer my surround sound and 40" wide screen for gaming.

The VMU was too limited. Have you ever tried playing NFL 2k/1/2 with VMU play selection? It doesn't work as good as you think it would. The VMU was a good idea that was too far ahead of its time for its own good.

The problem I see with the technology is that if done properly, like with a good screen possibly with touch sensitive technology, it would drive the overall price of the system through the roof.

If all three companies are going the 599$ route in the next Generation, that would leave an oppurtunity for someone to creep into the industry with a lower end system(if done correctly). -Wishfull thinking from a Sega Fanboy.
