Should their be a Nintendo NX forum @GBAtemp ?

[osirisjem]

Nintendo has announced the Nintendo NX console.
Might be nice to keep all the NX discussion in one place.
Not to mention it'll be good for Google SEO to have long established NX threads with lots of replies a year from now.


Just a thought.

It's not known if it's an actual console or a service yet. Still too soon.

Yeah, there is no reason to create a section for a mystery that is nothing but a series of rumors and assumptions based on vague or indirect quotes.

No, Nintendo confirmed it's a console, both Reggie and Iwata confirmed it in interviews/investor meetings. Reggie even confirmed it's an home console...

Well, could you please post some sources to verify that?

Link 1: Doesn't confirm NX is the next home console, just vaguely states they're working on a new console.
Link 2: Again, a vague response.

"We’ve also said publicly" <- this can only refer to the previous announcement of the NX.
The other link specifically confirms it's a console, not a "service".
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/nintendo-s-new-console-nx-is-not-a-simple-replacem/1100-6427326/ they always referred to it as a console.

It's a console.
we have console deniers now ?

At the very least, it's a replacement for Wii U. At the very most, it's possibly a replacement for both (as hinted by the top answer on that page, with Iwata referring to both the 3DS and Wii U with his answer.).

EDIT: Also, Iwata'a answer to question 5 during this Q&A in March 2014 suggests that Nintendo was at least investigating a unified architecture...

I think the question we should really be asking is why people care so much about something we know so little about.

I'm a Nintendo fan.
I'm interested in their future plans for Nintendo gaming.
That's why I am interested.

You want there to be a seperate section for something that the extent of what we know about is "it's a console"? It'd be 90% speculation and 10% shitflinging because someone's speculation is apparently wrong. As this thread has demonstated perfectly.

 

[YugamiSekai]

It would be a great place to discuss current news on it, like leaked information or anything else but that's my opinion.

Apparently others are interested too.

Shouldn't GBAtemp be a place at the forefront of Nintendo information.
One of the best reasons for GBAtemp is to sort out the rumors and speculation.

We know basically nothing about it. I'd say wait until Nintendo says a bit more on what NX even is. All we know at this point is that it's some kind of console that may be released in just under a year.

 

[Sicklyboy]

SEO with "Nintendo NX" isn't going to help us that much when Nintendo announces the official name is the "Nintendo Shabadoo 2 - Electric Boogaloo"

In the mean time the entirety of threads there will be baseless speculation, something that proves time and time again to be a problem for us. We have little more to go on right now than a working name; let's let some more concrete information come out then we'll reconsider.

So no PlayStation 5 forum yet either?
