    This way you raise the cost of the unit so high for the low end
    home market where Ami is targeted that noone will buy one...

    The console format IS the best for the HOME market since it will
    appeal as a console unit to kids, like dumbtendo and Sega.

    The all in one unit is best for kid use as they won't lose all the
    pieces and there are fewer cords to tangle/break.
