We decided to focus on Zelda,” he said, referring to Nintendo’s E3 2016 showcase. “We’ll talk about the NX this Fall. At that time, it will be one hundred percent NX. There, it is one hundred percent Zelda.”

Sadly we never got the E3 surprise NX announcement we wanted. However, it seems like we will get info during the fall possibly during the Tokyo Game Show or a Nintendo Direct.

I just realized Nintendo is guilty of still producing the family computer disk add on until 2003 and the family computer (famicom) as well. Parts for both sold until 2007. Nintendo WTF?! That must be a lot of cash wasted on outdated tech.

Still dude. I do not know why gaming companies think Americans do not like color. I love color. I want everything to be white or blue. Not fucking grey and musk purple. I need pretty stuff in life.

Long time no see homepage. I missed ya, did you miss me

O please Canada don't let NX be another Wii Gimmick bullshit.

Am I maybe the only idiot that really liked the Wiimote/motion controls scheme, way more than e.g. the Wii U gamepad.
I kind of miss how the controls were used in Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, for example.
I always thought that if the Wii actually had some processing power and graphics, together with the Wiimote based controllers, it would have been great(er).
So, short story, nobody else liked that? Well, whatever.

Anything is better then a gamepad

I want a modern console in a Famicom body. Damn that was colorful. However, I want the SNES color buttons with a xbox one like controller. Now where talking ninty.

Wii Mini is kinda like that:

True. What were Nintendo thinking with the abomination of the GamePad -- Oh wait, they assumed the Wii U would be this huge success like the Wii was. Nope. It wasn't.

Ew black. I ain't being racist but white consoles are the best. imo

Well.... Of course (!) there will be info about the NX this fall!? It's coming out next year's spring (according to what's announced), so more news before it's launch should be a pretty obvious fact to everyone! I mean, you could even quote me on that "There will be more info on the NX this fall since it's coming out March next year". What else would you expect?? Nintendo has really hired the dumbest guys for PR... Don't even know if this guy's PR..

They should use Sonics PR

So you're saying there's a chance we may actually know what the thing is at least four months before launch?

Maybe it's a reference to the Wii U 'cause I for example didn't know it was it's own console until after it's launch, like many other people. They're assuring us that this time we'll know what it is...

Resident Evil 4 on Wii was my favorite third person control scheme ever. It's too bad Dead Rising on Wii was a shell of the other versions 'cause it used the same scheme.

Killzone 3 with PSMove is the closest you'd get to MP3 controls on a HD console. (well, CoD on Wii U aside) Pointing with PSMove wasn't as good as the Wiimote but the rest of it is apparently good enough to resurrect for PSVR. They must still have a couple warehouses full of them.

The Wii version was pretty good but I still prefer GameCube's. Funny thing about RE4, people back then didn't have a problem killing the Europeans (white, Spanish) on that game but come RE5 and it gets backlash because it's "racist", man, gotta love those double-standards.

I'm okay with gimmicks. I actually liked the Wii Remote, not so much because of the motion controls, more so because the cable between the remote and the nunchuck was long enough to allow me to rest my arms easily and however I wanted. I find most controllers too small for comfort, so that solution was ideal. If I don't like the gimmick, I can always opt to not use it, no harm, no foul. I just don't want the gimmick to be tied to a piece of shit main console unit. Can I have both, the gimmick and a console that's not terrible? Just PS4 levels of horsepower will do, I'm fine with that, it doesn't have to be "the best".

As for the reveal, just wait for E3 next year. Steal the spotlight from Neo and Scorpio, don't rush it out like you rushed the Wii U, just to be overshadowed a few months later.

*please be a handeld console hybrid, please be stronger than ps4, please dont be a piece of shit*

Pick one or the other. If it's supposed to be mobile then it has to be fanless, preferably heatsink-less, which means Tegra K1/X1, unlikely considering the partnership with AMD, or AMD G-Series, the beefiest of which are at the level of Radeon HD 8xxx or R1-7 with cut down CU's which doesn't bode well, you're not getting anywhere near PS4 levels of horsepower if you want the handheld to work just like the main unit.

Metroid launch title or don't fucking bother Nintendo.

FEDERATION FUCKS DOESN'T COUNT.

You want to make NX not about the specs and focus on the games...? SHOW ME.

 

[Flora Cherry]

all blog french say Nintendo NX was originally released in November 2016

 

[osaka35]

A gimmick is only a gimmick if it doesn't work. I don't care what they come up with. I'll try it out and determine if I like it when i play it. It's fine to doubt and to have massive reservations, but to assume something is terrible before ever experiencing it is the sign of immaturity. I don't mean "probably going to be terrible, but we'll see", but rather "w0rst d3cision 3var!!!one!!".

That being said, it'd be nice if they made something that didn't scare away 3rd party game makers who aren't too keen on taking any more risk than "it'll run on ALL the things with no changes!".

Nintendo NX info coming this Fall? Oh. Great.

Let's up it doesn't fall as quickly as I think it will.

Freaking Nintendo...

 

[Selim873]

I feel they should reveal it sooner. I was hoping for a July/August direct reveal with game trailers, along with TGS having booths and demos, even putting it up for preorder to the public during TGS.

Unless they make a game with the title "Homies n' Niggas: The White Menace" in which you kill and enslave black men, I think you can just call the people who said that idiots and ignore the whole thing.

He fixed it

no i didn't it always worked problem was your end
