​

Today via their latest finacial report, Nintendo announced that their new upcoming gaming system, codenamed the Nintendo NX, will be released worldwide in March 2017.

“For our dedicated video game platform business, Nintendo is currently developing a gaming platform codenamed ‘NX’ with a brand-new concept. NX will be launched in March 2017 globally.”

The Nintendo NX will not show at this year's E3, instead the company will focus on the latest Zelda title at the upcoming conference, which will now be a dual release for both WiiU and the NX.

1. No NX at E3. Will focus on new Zelda

Nintendo is fucking up again with their damn lies, lies and more lies. I remember a while back Nintendo claiming Zelda not being delayed because of being cross-platform but because they wanted to add things. Why do you lie over and over again Nintendo ? It's clear you're not the same company you were back in tue 80's\90's and that you lost the passion towards your consumers and gaming in a whole.

Yeah, Nintendo needs to stop abusing its fan base. I'm not liking this one bit neither.

everyone laughed at me when i said they will pull another TP now who's laughing?!

Even a broken clock is right twice a day. Congrats.

That's a remake. Exactly the point. (;___://

Which would make Wind Waker not a Gamecube exclusive. That said, Gamecube does still have 4-Swords Adventure.

Remember when Nintendo said Zelda WiiU will launch in 2015? Pepperidge Farm remembers!

Bleh, was looking forward to Zelda WiiU for years.

And Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart 8, to name a couple.

Did people laugh at you? Because i'm pretty sure literally everyone has been saying that for the last year and a half.

 

[DarkJediRey]

Nintendo tells investors and shareholders March 2017, NX will end up being delayed to holiday 2017. Also, Zelda Wii U will never happen. just my predictions

I just can't...I mean....WHY????!!!!!

If they can't make a release schedule in time for Christmas, it's fair they don't attempt to, I guess*. But how the HELL do you couple a no-show at E3 with a console release just nine months later? Christ...they've ruined their last E3 with the starting words of "we won't be talking about the NX this year...". There's no way things aren't in the final stages yet, and it's not like publicity actually hurts anyone. I mean...do they want their...their...hybrid thingy to flop before it's even released or something?

*a glimpse of the future*
Random guy on the street: hey, you...have you heard of the latest nintendo console?
Random passer-by: huh? Nintendo? They were that game company, right? Do they still exist? And who are you?
Random guy 1: I'm the nintendo CEO. I've just launched it from my basement. It's going to be awesome!
Random passer-by: oh, erm...sure thing, dude. Whatever you say. *starts walking away*
Random guy 1: wait. Where are you going? I want you to experience this!
Passer-by: *runs*
Other random hobo-looking guy: just forget it, mate. People don't buy video games these days. At least not quality ones.
Random guy 1: really? Just what makes you say that?
Hobo-looking guy: I'm the CEO of sega



*for those who care: yes, I predicted a 2016 Christmas NX release. Yes, I was wrong

 

[Benja81]

There hasn't been an original one since 2011.

Yes, but I mean will be 5 years of Wii U without an original Zelda game for the console.

 

[HaloEffect17]

Great. What else is Nintendo going to delay now? We all saw this coming. At least they gave us a release date for the NX, though that won't be delayed.

 

[GuyInDogSuit]

Yes, but I mean will be 5 years of Wii U without an original Zelda game for the console.

I was wrong, actually, A Link Between Worlds is technically an original game.

 

[nintendarium]

after the now 3rd delay since 2014 I wouldn't be surprised if even Big N pulled a Watchdogs on Zelda for Wii U.

Watchdogs and Rayman were the reason I refuse to buy ubishit stuff now.
while a delay to polish a game is a good thing and acceptable and already happened at least 4 times for zelda , a delay for marketing reasons that then translated anyway in a disaster (rayman numbers on non-nintendo, quality issues on next gen for WD ) is the worst thing to do.
Hope no company ever think to make a "watchdogs move" .
ever!

yes it's canon.

 

[Obveron]

I'm a bit miffed that the Wii-u won't get an exclusive Zelda. I think it's time to sell this thing.

Actually, the last original one is a Link between World (2013)
2014 : Hyrule Warrior (spin off)
2015 : Majora's Mask (remake) Tri Force Heroes (Spin off)
2016 : Twilight Princess HD (Remake)

TP HD was remastered version, which is different from remake and should not be confused.


Now come to think of it, all of these recent remakes and remasters were just to get some time before the next 3D Zelda. Maybe they could announce "Skyward Sword HD" and then delay "Zelda NX" again?

eventually there will be an hd version ...unlikely on wiiu more probable a NX version...
think when they announce : wind waker 4k on NX-2 !!

 

[TheDarkGreninja]

keep if for vwii and emus

you also predicted a 2016 release so that err yeah.

 

[Bladexdsl]

who cares i nailed the zelda prediction that was the one the fanboyz said they would never do

most of predictions were made before NeoPS4 was a thing.
also a 3 months delay is not what it bother much... last 3 months of 2016, first 3 months of 2017 is not a big deal...most of the concern is that wiiu will not have a exclusive zelda.
