Guy Goodbody posted:Just to get it straight in my head, the only things that we actually know for sure about the NX is that it's a home console, it's coming out in March 2017, and Zelda will be on it? Several other games, including Dragon Quest X, Dragon Quest XI, Sonic 2017, and Just Dance 2017 have also been confirmed.

In all fairness Pokemon has had a pretty varied number of titles, its just that the main installments are only incrimentally different.

Unforgivable. The fully 3D open world Pokémon is Pokémon GO and the map is real life. Will you never be satisfied?!

romanowski posted:the changes feel a lot more pronounced when you take a 15 year break between gold & silver and x & y It's a huge amount of cumulative incremental changes but the basic systems still feel rooted in what was possible to achieve on the technology of the original gameboy, which is something I find kind of frustrating. Like, if you gave someone the core gameplay ideas of Pokemon today, (catching monsters; competing in a national monster-fighting competition system; and also using your monsters to beat some "bad guys") you definitely wouldn't end up with X&Y. There's scope to take the game to much more interesting places mechanically, but there's no chance that it'll actually go there.

greatn posted:Maybe. The IGN report used the phrase "separate source," so I doubt it. The EG report has also been independently corroborated by WSJ, MCV, Semiaccurate, Tweaktown, and LPVG, and to a lesser extent Kotaku. Some of which are more reputable than others, but the point is that there's been literally zero actual reporting from any halfway credible outlet that contradicts the EG report in any meaningful way. So while it's obviously not 100% confirmed, it's really, really, really unlikely that these outlets are all completely wrong about what NX is. It's a tad more plausible that there's some other form factor out there *in addition* to the hybrid device, but I still wouldn't bet on that.

It's so weird seeing people treat the loving Wall Street Journal like it has the same credibility of some rumor-mongering website run by 19 year old ultranerds. The WSJ's target audience for stories about Nintendo is rich investors who want accurate info on what Nintendo is up to to decide whether to invest or not, not gamers. The WSJ is not some gossip mill.

The WSJ is not some gossip mill. It's fairly obvious that something like 95% of the "debate" over the veracity of Eurogamer/WSJ/IGN/MCV's reporting only exists because what they're describing doesn't match the PS4 Pro/Scorpio-killer that a vocal minority of Nintendo fans had pictured in their heads. I've seen a ton of misinformation going around about these outlets and their reporting that's clearly being circulated by people who haven't read the articles (see the "they're just going off of patents" post above), have no idea how journalism works, or both.

I was sad when I bought the game again on Steam, and saw "Oh, the Courier's pack just gives me everything I need for Cazador Hell.", but then again you can just uninstall DLCs that you don't want, so its not a problem for me. edit: An open world pokemon would be meh imo, but I'd like to see a new Pokemon Rumble that lets you play for more then five minutes at a time without paying extra cash

I do think all these outlets seem a little blind to the fact that dev kits do not resemble the end product, when they're talking about there being a fan in the unit, having certain dimensions, or even having certain chipsets. The final product is never particularly close to even the advanced dev kits. Really all you can garner is that it is a mobile device and PROBABLY uses something in the NVidia Tegra family, but may not even use that.

Eh... this close to launch, I would think that dev kits would be fairly close to final hardware in general form factor and performance. Specific dimensions, sure, I'd be more skeptical about (though the one outlet that reported on that, LPVG, partially retracted that story).

There were still 3 other cardinal directions which didn't result in you getting deathclawed.

Yes, Nintendo did a similar switch with 3DS (reportedly due to Nvidia failing to deliver the performance per watt they had promised), but that was much further in advance of launch than NX currently is.

I'm going to go ahead and spill the beans so to speak. The Nintendo NX, or as it will be known as The Nintendo 7, will feature not one not two but four Tegra X2 chips, two of which will be overclocked. We're talking 8 teraflops of pure power here. Not only that, it will be a phablet that connects to a dock to display it on the TV (bringing gaming BACK to the television, where it belongs). So at home or on the go The Nintendo 7 will be the most versatile and powerful system in existence. Sony doesn't stand a chance and Microsoft is just a joke waiting for the punchline.

Not really. Here's a truth few have realized: no one actually cares about these trade shows or stage announcements. You can just throw up a trailer on YouTube and it's fine.

Remember they have to do a worldwide announcement. I feel especially bad for NoE. They have to prepare promotional materials, websites, video content, subtitles in like five or six languages. This is an extraordinarily difficult media rollout.
