Nintendo NX will launch March 2017

nx.jpg
Today via their latest finacial report, Nintendo announced that their new upcoming gaming system, codenamed the Nintendo NX, will be released worldwide in March 2017.

“For our dedicated video game platform business, Nintendo is currently developing a gaming platform codenamed ‘NX’ with a brand-new concept. NX will be launched in March 2017 globally.”

The Nintendo NX will not show at this year's E3, instead the company will focus on the latest Zelda title at the upcoming conference, which will now be a dual release for both WiiU and the NX.

Update. The new open world Zelda is also set to appear on the NX and Wii U at the same time.

They should ditch European Nintendo Directs and include European dates on the US Nintendo Directs so this way there'd be no need for Shibata to say exactly the same lines as Reggie and Trinen. Problem with Shibata is his English accent, it's not very good.

^This.^ It would also make more sense since not many people watch the European directs, and they seem a lot more lacklustre compared to their 'Murican counterparts.

what about the opposite ...the guy is quite funny...
Trinen and Reggie instead are quite boring lately...

here a video parody ( a bit racist anyway...but funny)

Well, let's just hope for the sake of NX there won't be a "New Super Mario Bros. NX Edition" because if it'd be anything like the Wii U version it would be basically a Mario NX tech-demo to show the capabilities of the console than to really enjoy the game. Give us a full fledged Mario 3D game or Luigi's Mansion 3 with Luigi's Mansion 2 remastered in HD as a bonus game.

and you was one of them saying it wasn't going to happen. fanboyz just never admit defeat do you?
I just called out the logic for your conclusion and the level of certainty you ascribed it. There are endless amounts of people like yourself who make all sorts of predictions that they are absolutely certain of, but are wrong more-often-than-not because the fact is, you don't know what Nintendo is doing. You'll forgive me if I don't recall your specific "evidence", probably along the lines of "the game was delayed... NX!!! Just like Twilight Princess!" while ignoring that almost every console Zelda game has been delayed with Twilight Princess being the only one that became a dual-console release making it an outlier rather than the rule. It does not preclude it from happening again, but it is hardly the solid evidence that some would make it out to be.

But please, go on with your self-congratulation. How about that NX release date in 2016 you were certain about?

People still seem to enjoy Mario 64 well enough.

The DS VC version on Wii U has the ability to control the camera, correct? That really makes a huge difference in playing it and one of the best ways to play it.

March for both versions of the new zelda and the NX. And most like within a week or two of each other if not everything on the same exact day!

Calling it now!

I think that the Wii U version of Zelda is already fully finished but due to the NX Nintendo's keeping it in the valve until 2017. Heck, it happened with Twilight Princess. What a bummer to wait 11 months. :(

Agreed... they kept saying that NX would be shown at e3, or that more info would come out at that time...
Now they don't have games nor news... what the hell are they thinking?
They are incompetent. They never seem to meet any deadline.
The Wii U launched after Christmas.
And we all know how well that went.

Have we got confirmation of that? I had not seen anything on the matter.
No confirmation whatsoever... he must have just arrived from The Future to warn us!
I dont think games will be backwards compatible. The NX is an entirely new architecture. Would be *VERY* hard to make it backwards compatible.

To be fair though, I expected the NX to come out with a grand fanfare around December - why would you possibly want to miss the Holiday season? I suppose it's close enough to Easter, but c'mon.
Obviously they are having trouble getting the NX to work.
Same old Nintendo BS.
This bodes very poorly for Nintendo.

WTF are you talking about?
First the Wii U launched on November, not after christmas (well, after 2011's christmas, but I doubt that's what you meant)
Secondly, where did you learn that the NX is an entirely new architecture?
Third, they have trouble getting the NX work? how do you know?
Also, they never met any deadline? Hey mate, it's very rare, not like they always delayed games...
Omg, what you said is just non-sense for someone informed

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Also, I'm not 100% sure about that, but I though Nintendo said, when they announced NX and Zelda release date, that they will give more infos about the NX in futures Nintendo Direct that will occurs after the E3

It is what I meant. First they said November release, the March .... then November. And the Launch was terrible. Wii U OS was painfully slow and it was rushed, despite being a year late.

Secondly, where did you learn that the NX is an entirely new architecture?
I think it's pretty well established.

all what I see are rumor
Put it this way, Ninty has no choice put to migrate to the architecture that Sony and Microsoft use.
That is, if they want anyone to release third party games on their hardware. Rewriting software for a niche console with a smaller install base is a pass. Nintendo is doomed if they can't get developers to make games for their hardware.
