Nintendo is quiet on the NX because of a secret feature

[BurningDesire]

When asked in a interview about the NX Miyamoto said:

"In terms of NX, there's an idea that we're working on," he told the publication through a translator."That's why we can't share anything at this point, and I don't want to comment on the other companies. If it was just a matter of following advancements in technology, things would be coming out a lot quicker."

Will it be a feature all other companies will follow and improve on but only fail like motion controls? I guess we'll find out.

On a side note there is a investor meeting going on today in Japan on June 29th which is today for the US. Let's hope we get some news!

VR integration.

VR integration.

Probably not. Nintendo keeps saying how much they hated. Plus they said it is new and they don't want competitors stealing it. I have a strong feeling it won't be VR. Of course I would not be against it though.

I think you meant to say quiet

VR integration.

Maybe they'll adopt the design of the VR headset in Miitomo

A game where you hump other Nintendo characters

This is getting very deep almost off topic but not quite. Although VR porn is indeed a thing so that might also be out of the question xD

I wouldn't consider this news. We all knew Nintendo were gonna through something "different"in the NX eventually.

If we knew what the different thing was, then it would be a real story. This thread is just gonna start another wild speculation conversation.

Here I will give you a jump start on it; The secret feature of the NX is, Nintendo created a sandbox player allowing playing of their rivals' games through advanced emulation aka virtualization. This is possible because the system is another 64 bit system with nearly identical specs to the others in the generation of consoles.

Wouldnt it be great if nintendo made a swish HDD loader, for legit purchases, that was some sort of wiiflow/loadiine style thing to dissuade hackers.

Kind of like how Apple integrate jailbreak tweaks into their new iOS every iteration and try to make people love their software.

It would be novel, it would be industrially different, but it would be a great base for hackers to mod pirated games into...... so.......

EDIT: to be fair their loader for kiosk wiiu is pretty nice.

While that would be nice I feel like it would only work with Xbox One games since Ninty and Micr$oft seem to be getting a long. As well as the fact that Micro$oft no longer has any exclusives xD

Motion controls weren't a failure for Nintendo at all.

 

[nxwing]

Open-source firmware for the NX? Backwards caompatibility with all previous Ninty consoles?

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

Motion controls weren't a failure for Nintendo at all.

Is that because the Wii sold well?

 

[KiiWii]

Other OS....

I said for other companies it was but it was a success for Nintendo

It's funny how everyone talks about the specs but not the Hardware or OS.

I thought somewhere mentioned it was android based, but I didn't really believe it.

If they got OOS right where Sony knobbed it up they could have a kick ass all in one edutainment device.

I love the look of the Xbox OS but I also love share play on the ps4. If they could combine them like you said. It be one kick ass system. As for looks. Bring back the NES but make it modern. You're already using cartridges.

I hate the "metro" xbox windows 10 looking panel crap.

PS4 UI is acceptable, Wii U/Wii "channels" thing is over and done with.

Something clean, modern, minimal, customisable and add free ftw.

BTW no android on NX: confirmed.

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
