Dude, that has been confirmed a long time ago lmao. Also I personally love the 'metro' look. I guess we will have to see what they come up with. Maybe it will be just stick a game in and it loads xD

Some sort of RETRON! Slots for all the generations. No IU. No OS. No need!
 
I hope they stick with the 3DS cartridge shape. As well as keep the same box design. Just add the NX name to it. If it isn't going to be permanently called the NX (which I think it should)

I could go for that, though I hope they make the carts a tad bit larger.

On the other hand if they made a smaller version of the old NES cart case that would be good as well.

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

For a home console, why would it matter?

Faster loading times than disc, less sensitive than disc, more storage space than disc, and in theory all game updates could be stored on the cart itself as opposed to being stored on the console itself.

Maybe something like the vita carts. Good size box cart was weird though.

I admit, an old Nes Style box (all but plastic this time) would get my attention too, as would retro box art.

So like the sega genesis boxes but without the tag on the top? I still do not know why that is there xD

Those tags were from back in the day when they hung them on a hook out in the public, as opposed to behind the counter and behind glass. Back when I had sticky fingers, I made sure my Sega Master System collection was nice and complete. I don't think they foresaw how addicted kids would become to video games again during that time. :)

My only complaint about those boxes really was their thickness, today I believe they could make the same size cases, but closer to the thickness of a DVD case. And I hope they intend to print nice color manuals for these games. I am tired of being restricted to only a digital version. If games are going to be $50 plus, then they should have a manual.

The secret is that it runs steam and Mario is coming to steam and NX in 2017.
Guys it's real. Reggie told me this morning. You can trust me.
