Hardware So, NX might be a handheld that has detachable controllers and plugs into a TV

[Dungeonseeker]

Yep, latest rumours are the system might well be a tablet like system (almost certainly running a Tegra X1) with 2 controllers that can attach or disattach to the system so it can be played hand held or plugged into a TV for big room play.

Tech Radar created this awesome picture for everyone who might be struggling to imagine it.

Again the rumour NX will be a cartridge based system are also included in this one too.

As will all rumours, take it with some sodium.

Thoughts?

The image is (probably) just a rough sketch.
You can see just enough of it, so you can understand the basic idea.

I actually doubt that the final system will use a tegra chip as they consume a ridiculous amount of power and IIRC the early 3ds dev board used one before switching to Nintendo's custom chip.
