More than you think, less than you hope.

a videogame console

a pokemon go machine

A failure

>Its not a console
>People confirmed they are developing games for it
>Wont replace the Wii U or 3DS

Sounds like even they dont know what the fuck it is.

Neotendo's final home comsole.

Their very own Dreamcast, so to speak. Minus the ingenuity.

It's a home console.
It's a handheld.
It's a phone.
It's a platform.
It's VR.
It's a digital-only system.
It's a cartridge-based system.
It's a home console/handheld hybrid.
It's a modular system.
It's a development shift.
It's stronger than a PS4.
It's as strong as a PS4.
It's weaker then a PS4.
All of these are CONFIRMED.

>Its not a console
Who the fuck said that?

>It's a cartridge-based system.
This is my favorite for the amount of times its been reposted.

How long can they afford to wait until they unveil it?
Assuming they'll actually release it in March 2017, they got less than 9 months to explain it to people and why they need it

>iPhones and other smartphones are leaked many months in advance
>Nintendo NX hasn't even been shown, leaked and not a single fuck is known about it.
Some big-mouthed dev has to fucking come forward soon and leak shit about the dev kits. They just have to.

>doesn't know what it is because no information about it has been disclosed
>ITS A FAILURE

>B-but SONY
You nintencucks are fucking retarded.

There's a chance that Nintendo delayed the NX due to the sudden release of next-gen GPU architectures.

...

Sony fans are the most vocal and shitpost the most.

But here, have something that BTFOs every platform.

>Fucking developers in the ass by changing the hardware when it is about 6 months until it's sold in stores
No.

No one knows. All we know is they don't want to give any details ahead of the xbawks and sony attempts at releasing a stepchild console so they can't pooch any ideas from ninty.

a disappointment device

You're both faggots, now get the fuck out of here.

Yet here you are shitposting and crying like a little bitch.

...

That isn't wrong.

Splatoon was someone proving there's still hope for the FPS genre and it isn't all copying the same cliches from 2001

>Fucking developers in the ass
Moshi moshi, Nintendo desu

>gameplay at 900p
This feels too real

why the fuck have they disabled so many GETs

>crying that the WiiU has the best FPS this gen
Crying =/= gloating

A dissapointment just like the nintendofanbase.

...

So it's the Wii U?

>crying that the WiiU has the best FPS this gen
I bet you believe smash is the best fighting game too.

>Splatoon
>FPS

>Sensorbar

It's a combination console and portable device

They're doing this quite a few reasons, but one of the big ones is to combat the game droughts that the Wii U experienced.
If all of Nintendos dev teams are working on titles for the same piece of hardware then that hardware is obviously going to have more games for it than if they split those efforts in two

Are Nintendo and Sony supposed to exist in their own little bubbles? A competing company can't be brought up in a discussion of another company?
Why people are so triggered over Sony and Nintendo being compared to each other?

>so they can't pooch any ideas from ninty.
come on, even if they straight up copied their shit they wouldnt be able to do it in time for the NX release, would they
Kinect and the dildo got released long after the Wii

that said, I also dont believe Would Nintendo actually make use of up to date gpu architectures?
I just dont know what they're thinking, waiting so long
even if they revealed it, the specs of their dev kits could still change

Are you just pretending to be this retarded?

>Would Nintendo actually make use of up to date gpu architectures?
Power draw is a big thing for both console manufacturers and Nintendo in particular, so yeah.

It's needed for backwards comparability.

Although it's only going to have wii games available on the e-shop, it won't actually accept a wii game disc because it's a cartridge based syste

>Power draw
Its about profit margins you idiot. If Nintendo could make mad dosh with selling moster consoles they would.

>"just" pretending
If I was, I'd put a lot more effort into it than "just" pretending

vaporware, they're so fucked

If you are not then go trought the replies and you will find your answer.

Iwata in particular was very picky about the power draw of the consoles. The Wii was designed with a power draw limit (a very tiny one) in mind

A flop

Teraflop?

I'm guessing this is because they got some sort of tax break for producing "green" products

It's a thing

megaflop

I did not say its not a thing. I said it would not matter if they could make mad dosh with powerhungry hardware.

Fine "Shooter".

It showed people can still make unique shooters.

It happened with the Wii m8

It's going to be a failure before most people have even heard of it, this thing is not even making any news, if I mentioned nx to every single person I know they would say 'what?'

The future of Nintendo is so obviously going to be smartphone, nobody wants to by dedicated Mario machines for thrice what the shitty gimmick hardware is worth, Nintendo likes to hold its games at random and extort to retard fans into buying hardware they don't actually want, that is and has alway been nintendos way; just make a shitty outdated console and keep all those games exclusive, except now there are fewer and fewer retards who buy into the Nintendo nostalgia shit, they'll have to chase these retards Into the mobile phone market, what they don't seem to understand is that the novelty of their shot has worn off and all their games are just memes fads for normies, they'll all pretend they like Pokemon again now because it's free convenient and everybody else is doing but soon once celebrities and social media wcelebs stop getting as much attention for posting that shit they'll stop mentioning and posting about it, then because it's no longer flavor of the month all the normies will stop playing it too

Nintendo is still just prolonging it's inevitable exit from video games, the whole nostalgia rehashes angle is stale now, they're a company with no new ideas, all they now do is make up gimmicks to try justify the doubled up on price of their shit (unreleased but already several years behind) box nobody actually wants

Nintendo are awful, if you even slightly think they are a good company then you are one of these retards, why do you all talk about Nintendo like they are your friends?

How the hell does the WiiU draw less power than the Wii?
The gamepad alone should already draw more.

>It showed people can still make unique shooters.
Splatoon is a ripoff of some indie game.

IMO
>it's a home console
>it's stronger than the wii u
>it has a gimmick/special feature but it won't be (as big of) an obstacle to development or add unnecessary cost to the system like the gamepad
>it'll be close to current gen whether slightly stronger or slightly weaker
>it's appeal will once again be first and 2nd party titles with 3rd party titles being an afterthought for anyone buying it
>dedicated gaming console so no blu-ray/dvd player and all that jazz
>the default controller will be more traditional

Uhhhh wasn't that just an utter and compete rip off of a £5 arcade game, yet you retards were all made to pay 8 times that amount and you're all just children to Nintendo so no voice chat for you?

Sounds phenomenal, how do I join club Nintendo?

user, the gamepad runs off a battery for like 4 hours. It's nothing but a screen.

>that is and has alway been nintendos way; just make a shitty outdated console

Nintendo existed for a long fucking time before the Wii came out

That indie game was a ripoff of Mario Sunshine

Nintendo had this patent confirmed recently.
neogaf.com/showthread.php?t=1246281

It's about pieces of hardware to plug to other existant hardware to increase its power.
The NX will be an expansion pack to plug on your Wii U and 3DS.

>mfw it's a digital distribution service for all consoles and pc

It's not even fucking revealed yet, isn't it too early to say? Discussion is already rife in gaming sites and forums (us), with the reveal, it will be even more

And I doubt the 1.5 consoles will pick up any steam, so NX has an advantage, if they reveal it right

And Sony and Microsoft will sooner back out, looking at how they are doing right now.

Nah that was soon. Nintendo just tricked you into buying an Xbox arcade indie game for 60 Dollaroos, also no voice chat. No voice chat...in a shooter. Kek KEK Kek

>I WANT TO HEAR KIDS SCREAMING ON MIC AND AM INCAPABLE OF WORKING WITH MY TEAM WITHOUT COMMUNICATION AND LOOK AT THE MAP

who the fuck uses in game voip in a shooter?

Great post.

A shit console with no games that nintencucks will shill for free.

They need to drop the secrecy before the launch and give us specs and launch titles because that's all anyone cares about. Die hard fans will keep their wii u's or whatever until a game they give a shit about is released and other gamers won't bother with a system comparable or weaker than the ps4/xbone

>I-it's cool I didn't want to be able to speak anyway!
>besides its not like I have any friends to talk to!

Lack of voice in a shooter is unexcusable, you pretending it's a good thing is pathetic

If they done that then every need site would be talking for months about how underpowered it's gonna be and how you should stick to ps4 it's the only reason for the secrecy, if they had anything up their sleeves they would have revealed all by now because there is literally no hype or awareness surrounding this thing, it's dead man let if go, they're hiding the failure until the last possible second because there is nothing that can be done about it right now .

The morons had a hand in the best selling mobile game of all time, they own Pokemon in its entirety and yet they didn't even get their company name anywhere in game, how fucking bad a company do they have to be before you all stop eating their shit

this pretty much
I have my ps4 collecting dust and going to sell it and I want to know how's NX, especially if it'll have backwards compatability since I want to play a few games from wii U like xenoblade, bayonetta, fatal frame, mario kart and those other exclusives that have co-op but I dont want to get a wii u just for it to be worthless in a few months

dude I don't think I've used the in game voice for a shooter since halo 3.

there are a dozen better ways than some shit devs cobbled together to check a box for dev goals

I'm not much of a shooter guy but players were such idiots that even in a game like Evolve that demanded it I felt better playing in silence than listening to them. In PvZ GW where it's less essential but helps players were discussing strange subjects, singing, screaming, swearing and breathing heavily rather than anything strategic. From what I've seen of CoD voicechat truly is cancer

Splatoon isn't the perfect solution but I have enough info without voicechat to strategise and so does my team

an outdated console with a gimmick and amiibos. just like every nintendo console for 2 generations now.

The NX is Nintendo's final experiment in the console business.

The insane success of Pokemon Go coupled with the failure of the WiiU mean that if the NX flops then good bye Nintendo consoles.

Yeah, I'm sure nintendo will abandon console gaming due to a one hit wonder

At the very minimum they need to announce if it has backwards comp. A price drop on the Wii U wouldn't hurt to generate some interest, either. The damn thing cost more than an xbox one now.

naturally. nevermind that they made money off the Wii U. They will cease console operations. Indubitably.

Can Nintendo please have up to date console hardware like the N64 and Gamecube? I hope it's on par with NEO.

I mean the PS4 totally dominated the WiiU, outsold them 10 to 1. Or 5 to 4, can't remember, doesn't matter because it's a failure either way.

I think it being more powerful than the PS4/Xbone is less important than it's launch line up and controller for Nintendrones. Unless it blows the current gen out of the water no one who already owns these other systems is going to swap to Nintendo or add one to the consoles they own

The best thing they can do to please everyone is strong launch with plenty of first party and 3rd party exclusives on a system stronger than the current gen and at least equal to the mid gen upgrades they're both getting

If the NX is stronger than the PS4 or Xbone then I'm not buying it. And I am very disgusted to hear people are wishing for something so terrible.

I know that this is bait, but it's bait under the assumption that Nintendrones are against powerful hardware. You are fucking retarded if you think that.

Why would you want it weaker? Zelda BotW shows that even with Nintendo most creative designers/developers there's only so much they can squeeze out of outdated systems. With PS4 level ability or better their games could look better, play better and be bigger and more expansive

and? the only people that care about console wars are teenagers that are stuck in the immature tribal mentality of my team vs your team.

>be bigger and more expensive

FTFY. Budgets have bloated out of control and it's impossible to takes risks, every game needs to sell millions to turn a profit.

What will happen to niche games like Etrian Odyssey, Super Mystery Dungeon, M&L and everything that's not Zelda once they're required to spend 90% of their development animating facial hair on a space marine's stubble? they'll die, or start appeal to the lowest common denominator, it has happened before and it is happening now.

I have evidence. The 3DS has the best library this gen despite being the weakest platform. Same goes for the DS, PSP and Wii last gen. Care to humiliate yourself further with idiotic assumptions or will you just admit defeat and post smug anime ladies?

I don't have smug anime ladies right now, but I would use them if I had them.
Basic english comprehension doesn't seem to be your forte.
People do not WANT weak hardware. It just so happens that weak, cheap hardware with good games have been leading the industry for over a generation.

Sabaton - Unbreakable

...They'll never know we give no warning,
we set a trap, they took the bait,
leading them straight into hell,...

Nintendo has been going for stylised games over realistic ones but you might be right that it's only because the hardware couldn't handle proper realism.

That being said I doubt Nintendo would drop all stylisation and creativity and become graphic whores

But they already have. Though weak, the WiiU was still a significant leap in development costs from the 3DS, and it hurt its library when compared to the Wii.

Why do you think a 1st party 3D action-adventure game like Kid Icarus wasn't on the WiiU? Monster Hunter 4, 4U and Gen? Kingdom Hearts DDD? Bravely Default? These would've been fine on the WiiU but the developers couldn't afford to spend so much time, money and effort just to keep up with the graphics.

It does not seem like a worthwhile endeavor and if Nintendo wants to play pissing contest with two companies that don't even make games and lose that's not OK with me. I don't play Nintendo for Mario or Zelda.

what's in the box?

Not a Xylophone

This is why I've been saying constantly throughout the thread that the launch line up matters. Nintendo can't go another gen leaving certain IPs dormant like Metroid and F Zero or releasing shitty trash like Star Fox 0.

Proper Zelda is confirmed, we need a proper 3d Mario, Metroid, DK, etc etc. It certainly wouldn't to have more new Ips like Splatoon developed

a cellphone

Well they've certainly been biding their time, we don't even know what the damn console is. But I can't take another lackluster lineup, clearly the initial reveal is the best place to advertise games so I see no reason why they wouldn't.

That's what worked with the 3DS, tell us sweet little lies about paper mario and mega man legends 3.

I've already decided to wait and not buy it at launch. I have more than enough games on Wii U to entertain me for years

I need games and I need them bad. Finished SMD last week, once I'm done with Generations there's not much left to live for.

>they made money off the Wii U
Source?

A slap in the face to Wii U owners
