Hardware Baseless Nintendo NX speculation thread

[TotalInsanity4]

I'm honestly predicting that gameboy is right about the NX portable releasing in march of 2017. HOWEVER, I honestly believe that they will pull a DS reveal at E3 this year with the console (Reggie: "And you can play it TOMORROW!"). I don't know if they'll necessarily release it quickly after E3, but I think that they are winding up for a huge reveal completely out of the left field

(Yes, I know I'm setting myself up for disappointment, but that would be amazing if I were right)

half-life 3 confirmed exclusive for NX.

the NX controller only accepts user input via feet and buttocks, providing sensory feedback in the form of braille dots.

And there's no video output whatsoever. The system is entirely designed for blind people!

well, now i know what i must do if i am going to properly enjoy half-life 3. *blinds self in sweaty-palmed anticipation* THIS HAD BETTER BE WORTH THE LOSS OF VISION, GABEN.

OK i'm probably wrong about that feet and buttocks thing. it's gotta be feet, buttocks, and of course AMIIBOS.

Dude...you could have just worn a blind-fold....and you still have to learn Braille before it comes out!

nintendo supposedly reserved massive floor space for E3 most like for the NX but possibly cancelled because of suddenness of the ps4/xb1.5. I know they said the only game "playable" was Zelda but that doesnt mean they its the only game there. Theyre prolly gonna display the last two wiiu games and maybe pokemon.

They dont have to show the NX itslef or announced media capabilities or specs but they can certainly reveal its true name, unless the name gives away its never before seen feature. They can also show the AWESOME games in development, much like they did with zelda wiiu in 2013? (not the stupid zelda tech demo that the system could absolutely not play a game of that caliber)
THEY NEED TO AT LEAST GENERATE SOME BUZZ
it said 'focused' on zelda, not its only zelda you gonna see...

THE ABSOLUTE WORST GIMMICK OF ALL TIME IS THE DUMB TOUCHPAD FOR PS4
definitely not the wiiu gamepad

What about steam controller?

The steam controller's TouchPad at least has a purpose (mouse control on keyboard games)

If Nintendo just wait until 2017 they will not be another gen behind. PC can easily out-spec gen 9 console over 5 times next year, so Nintendo might have to wait or repeat the wii u all over again. And smart phone can replicate gimmick easily.

PC gaming is more reliant on the graphics cards rather than the processor, The most popular amd gaming cpu is the fx 8350 which came out all the way in 2012. The new gaming processor in the Polaris family is coming out this year. All nintendo has to do is add a decent graphics card and it can compete with consumer spec pcs for awhile because realistically no one really pays more than about $900 for a gaming rig

And zen. Octa-core (or six) zen can easily get 16 (12) threads, enough for proper ps3 emulation. Zen's current estimation is between haswell and boardwell, with equivalent energy efficiency. If polaris 10 rumour is true, Ps4k will get 980 level of performance.

everyones thinking "DONT SCREW UP THE NX NINTENDO!", regardless of what it is lol
Remember when clubnintendo made you do surveys for 10points, they better look at that average age and then the wants.
Heres what i wrote every single time: (almost triple platinum member (didnt register wiiu))
I only bought nintendo because of the FREE online play. Thanks keep it up.
I love the 3d effects. Thanks keep it going.

The 8th gen was a complete and utter mess. Gaming industry really needs a reboot.

 

[gameboy]

yea 8 came too early

 

[Saiyan Lusitano]

yea 8 came too early

Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft all screwed it up big time. Kinda makes me wish they'd have stuck to the 7th gen consoles until they were fully ready to release new consoles with new games than HD remasters.

I know that PS4 is the most profitable console of the three but honestly, as a customer that doesn't really matter to me since what I want is more and new games.

 

[gameboy]

Thats what i been sayng, no wiiu remasters, no wiiu to nx developement.
They have a new machine quit making n64, gc, wiiu, wii games anymore.

The last game (Rodea) for the Wii came out last year and guess what, it was way better than the bollocks that the Wii U got.

 

[gameboy]

oh man, that game WAS trash along with the 3ds version. I can even describe it.

Im waiting on "Samus Returns" metroid ended with fusion and the prime series with 3. They really need to continue the story without metroid. Hell i saw the doom commercial the first time two days ago and thought it was a better metroid clone, obviously before i found out it was Doom

 

[gameboy]

lets see a samus game using the vr aspect of the handheld lol
