Friend codes get a ton of poo poo, but I think the only part of it that's deserved is needing a friend code per-game, and not per-system. A twelve digit number is less memorable than a name you've chosen, sure, but once it's entered, that's basically it. At least for Wii U/3DS, the implementation was poo poo on Wii/DS where codes were per-game.

Ah, right. It's been a dog's age since I had to mess with it. But my point about "per system, not per game" stands.

And the rumors -- pardon, the reports -- just keep coming from those former Destructoid people:quote:As others already said, it’s a hybrid console with detachable controllers that have a split D-Pad, A, B, X, Y, and a camera / share button. However, something I believe none of them have mentioned is the size of the current dev kit. quote:We also have two separate sources claiming that the current NX development kits are region free, and that those developing software for it have not heard anything about region locking being added before launch. Region-free is all I want from the Nintendo NX videogame portable hybrid thingy.

This is the rumor I frankly find pretty drat suspect because Nintendo dev kits are always giant monstrosities that don't resemble retail units. If they had said prototype it would be more plausible. But the 3DS dev kit for instance is a giant jagged metal box

Oh, so the detachable controllers may connect to the console in a similar fashion to the Wii motion plus dongle attaching to the Wii remote. In other words, I'll never get it right the first time.

Jsor posted:The NX will be Nintendo going back to their roots. Fun fact. Nintendo never stopped selling Hanafuda cards. I bought some while I was in Japan as I wanted some Japanese things as neat souvenirs and they were made by Nintendo. So what I'm saying is that I have an NX already. Who wants to start the bidding?

a.lo posted:People use to get real excited for Directs People will be excited for them again once they finally spill the beans on the new console. For the longest time they've just been a "we promise this system isn't dead, see, look at all the software coming out!" type of thing. If we get through September with still no information on it then I think it's going to be delayed. I sort of already think that.

I think we'll see something in September still. I feel less confident about it being before TGS now, though.

Nintendo said they won't reveal or talk about the NX in the next direct, but I think it will be there. In the background, under a covered glass case the whole time, with a sign that says Nintendo NX, and flanked by two security guards in three piece suits. It will be plainly there but no one will acknowledge it.

greatn posted:Source your quotes You're right, people haven't been asking for a Pokemon game on a cell phone since the birth of mobile gaming. They just download ROMs and install emulators for no reason. Nobody actually wants to play a Pokemon game on their cell phone, that's just insanity. I mean, nobody bought all those Final Fantasy games that got ported. It's the most obvious business strategy of all time. Even Disney is starting to realize they can't make money off of new poo poo (or rather, there is an inherent risk involved with new stuff), so let's remaster and re-release some old poo poo. When Nintendo makes new poo poo we get Metroid Prime Federation. SolidSnakesBandana fucked around with this message at 16:28 on Aug 31, 2016 |

Quest For Glory II posted:i want picross 3d 2 This leak is confirmed by my sources. Also, the NX moniker isn't actually the name, but the suffix for the device. "Nintendonx" is the name of Nintendo's revolutionary new device, pronounced "nin-ten-donks". I had an artist(me) collaborate with this VERIFIED source to create a rendering of the new system. This is *exactly* how it will look, minus a few differences in colour schemes, obviously. Edit: Correct Quote

greatn posted:Oh wow that was actually you. I agree with both of you in a way. Sun/Moon obviously isn't going to go on an iphone but they could sell red/blue for 29.99 on the apple store and make probably more than they did on the initial release of the games. This doesn't dilute the value of their IP, if anything it gets people who aren't tuned into the games industry asking 'hey I wonder if there's a new pokemon I can try'

The people that would have bought Pokemon on a phone are playing Pokemon Go and happier for its simplicity.
