what the hell is a nintendo nx? someone tell me they announced it ages ago

Nintendo's upcoming video game system is codenamed the NX. The only things we know for certain about it are that it's coming soon, and that Breath of the Wild will be playable on it. Other than that, Nintendo has not said a whole lot about it. There's a whole boatload of rumors and speculation though, if that's the sort of thing you enjoy.

This actually isn't true, we know a lot about the NX already. For example, it has two USB ports and a 6.1" scratch-proof sapphire screen.

It is not, principally, a liquid.

The reports from credible (and even semi-credible) news outlets are all extremely consistent, so odds are we know a lot more than that.

They're extremely consistent if you allow a wide margin for some very vague details.

By the same token, there are a lot of sources giving shockingly similar descriptions of flying saucers with grey aliens giving anal probes and mutilating cattle.

Doesn't necessarily mean that we "know" much of anything.

I think that you'll find that it actually runs off of your own sense of wonder and joy and it will literally fade away if you don't play it for more than a week.

That's one way to shift more systems.

The latest rumor is that Mario is my dad.

Luigi is my father; nice to meet you, cousin. We didn't need a DNA test as I am a dead ringer for him - I have the moustache, fondness for wearing green and bad Italian accent.

To this day I find it funny that the voice of Mario & Luigi is French. Well, American of immediate French descent and he speaks French.

Do you believe in heroes?
My friends met Mario's VA at a con. While he was signing autographs he would ask what your name is, and for every single person he would yell out "Woo-HOO! SUPER [insert name], you're numba one!" before moving the line along.

the year is 2053. plumbing is dead. My name is Mario Mario, I am one of the last plumbers alive. In 2041, plumbing was made illegal and almost all p-lumbers were massacred in what is now known as "The Great Mushroom Purge". I lived, but I lost my reason for living. Plumbing was gone. I live in the post-cyberpocalyptic ruins of the Mushroom Kingdom with my brother Luigi. I've given him all I can, but sometimes I wonder if it's enough...
