I'm sure $200 fine. People were fine with Vita price until they found out about the SD cards.
Sony and their expensive proprietary nonsense. I'm surprised the PS3 and PS4 didn't do what the 360 did and have their own proprietary HDDs. I'm still annoyed over the PSP's "Memory Sticks".

I agree Nintendo will never be top dog again, they will probably always sit at around 10million userbase from now on. I don't even know if its even worth for them to keep doing consoles if thats the future.

But I would commend them if they had the ballz to make a 4K NX. It would be the most surprising move in gaming history.

Did you forget about a little console called the 3ds?? It's only sold 90 million units :P

No, I play the N3DS quite often. I was talking about home consoles.

Im thinking the NX will replace the 3DS and allow it to play games on the Wii U

The reason(s):

Nintendo merged their console and handheld sections, so their games can be produced
to be compatible on both! (This is huge)

Nintendo is set to produce 20 million NXs starting on October, 20 million is a huge number for a home console
considering the Wii U only sold 10 million during it's lifetime, the NX is most likely not a console

Rumor has it that the NX will be cheap, like 200$ or less and it will be less powerful than the PS4 and Xbox
but more powerful than the Wii U

Iwatta said that it won't replace the Wii U (This is probably corporate BS) but whatever the NX is
it's not a traditional console yet console games like Dragon Quest X have been announced for it

Conclusion: The NX is a handheld / console Hybrid peripheral that will merge the handheld market into their
console market. Nintendo will develop Mobile games as their handhelds for the casuals and the NX will be
a 2 in 1 machine for the dedicated gamers! :D

  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    @SylverReZ find me ONE community that is free of drama and politics. even video games forums (like this one) have politics section. and for some reason gamers still take consoles/brands wars seriously. even as a kid i never took the console wars bait despite being a nintendo kid.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    one of the reasons i deleted all my social media accounts, reddit account (although i was rarely using it) etc was to get away from this shit.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Vetusomaru, Sadly, not all communities like to play nice. Forums are pretty much dying despite Discord amongst other social media being available.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    i only kept my twitter accounts and only because many of the artists i like share their art only/mostly at twitter.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    lots of discord groups (even the big ones) are also dead for some reason.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Twitter is way too shittier.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    that's why i added some firefox addons to block shit like twitter trends.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Discord, on the other hand, moderation tends to not be very nice in video game communities from what I had experienced.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    nah, discord is also a shithole. discord is good only if you have your own community with your own rules. or if you re lucky to find some groups that arent shitholes.
  • Vetusomaru @ Vetusomaru:
    as about forums, when i recently revisited some old forums i used to be regular and seeing how immature most members still are i was like "Yeap. Nothing of value has been lost.". Unfortunately it's the good, comfy forums that ended up dead or shut down, especially because of internet centralization.
  • Skelletonike @ Skelletonike:
    I like being immature.

    Let be immature online ffs.
