I think we have heard half the story, I'm thinking about the multiple form factors and this thing is barely more powerful than the Wii U, I reckon this is the hybrid version people who want both handheld and home console like experience in one device, there be a dedicated handheld NX and a powerful home console NX. Games will be compatible with all NX devices and scaled to individual performance, low end performance in the handheld, medium on the hybrid and high end on the standalone NX console.
Could you show me anywhere that Nintendo has told us the NX is their next home console? Because as far as I'm aware they've basically said nothing publicly.
Yeah no, I can't accept that as the reason. It's just wild conjecture. At best all that tells us is that the NX is more powerful than the wiiU which isn't a difficult task given the way technology advances.

Reggie calls the NX a home console.
Thank you, that clears things up for me.
It also tells me that this rumor from eurogamer is probably not accurate.
Edit: or if this is true, that it's only half of the console.

Looks interesting, you'd no longer have a need for 2 consoles, 2 game cartridges. Just 1. But it would be cool to still have the network capabilities to have more. Or to stream to the big screen.
This whole NX Concept seems oddly... Familiar...

I knew it was going to be a handheld, which makes me wonder about 3DS compatibility now.they were right about it not replacing the wiiu....it's not even a console!
If this can dock into your TV and can run BOTW then its a hybrid meaning its meant to supersede the wii u and 3ds.

I'm more amused by the doom and gloom people are assuming when there's little to no info about the console.
Will it have GPS for Pokemon Go ?

Or that standalone processor booster turns the handheld into a console

Long story, there have been changes, a lot of changes, you didn't see my new fox thread? I explained it all there lol
But yeah, on topic, if the NX uses nVidia, I personally don't see anything wrong as it would be a boon for them, at least, in my personal opinion.
The issue is though, is that third parties would consider this another wii u, a console with a different architecture to the norm as well as being much weaker.Long story, there have been changes, a lot of changes, you didn't see my new fox thread? I explained it all there lol
I like the concept of the home console-handheld hybrid Nintendo is pitching in.
But I'm kinda neutral on the design pictured in this article. It's not really "portable" or ergonomic enough to be considered a proper handheld, still I'm reserving my full judgement until Nintendo fully reveals it. Also, other people should stop whining and hating on Nintendo, this is just a rumor and is not entirely indicative on how the final product would look like.
