As cool as some of the models of Nintendo handheld are they would probably do a lot better just sticking to one option. Lots of data shows that people like having options, but are significantly more likely to buy something if very few options are available to them.

Nice to know you've done your research, Crabby. It's something that seems counter-intuitive, but holds true - more options is likely to attract more attention, but less options = more purchases.

Its important for me to know this stuff now so that I can manipulate people into sales...... MWA HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!

So that's why your shelves are full of different games, but only copies of Silent Service are actually for sale.

If I had several Silent Services I'd be retired on a beach somewhere

I should make a bunch of generic looking arcade cabinets. When somebody walks up to it they have to press a button to turn the screen on. When its done fading in they would see the title screen of Silent Service. They would laugh it off at first and shake their head before going to the next cabinet and turning the screen on. Same title screen. All of these machines are just CRTs with an NES hooked up and Silent Service in the system.

That would be pretty expensive though, what with the price of those carts.

We'll need a kickstarter for that.  I'm sure we could raise the $30,000 necessary for a Silent Service arcade.
