It feels cheap as poo poo but it's fantastic once you get used to it. Also there's no better controller for shooters if you're dumb enough to play shooters on controllers.

how is someone just now discovering this

So we got a release date before we even know what this thing is or the name of it? Actually I guess it's not that surprising.

If this thing is actually coming out at the beginning of March, wouldn't that mean they would start manufacturing these things pretty soon?

Monday is my anniversary. If Nintendo doesn't announce the NX then, it'll be ruined.

Hate to break it to you, but the NX won't be announced by Monday because it's busy having an affair with your lover.

yeah but if i wanted to use a real gamecube i'd have to pay way too much for component cables or else use a really ugly looking HDMI hack (assuming i got a gamecube with a digital out port)

nintendont on a wii u is the same as playing on a real gamecube except no game boy player and you can use the Wii U's HDMI out.

I don't see it that way. I think my girlfriend is just trying to get info on the NX for me.

Hi it's me Nintendo and I heard you want us to publish your game on our Nintendo Entertainment System?

That's great! Just follow this procedure and we'll get your game on the biggest console of the 80's.

Step 1: Pitch your game idea to us, we decide if it is good enough for our superior console and brand image.

Step 2: Purchase a licence and our dev kit to make said game.

Step 3: Sign a contract that only allows you to make 5 games a year, you get 20% of the profits made from the game, we own the rights to the IP and you can't make the game for any of our competitors, if you break these rules then we cease all action and black list you from the industry.

Step 4: Buy the cartridges from us, their is a chip shortage so you only get a set amount of cartridges FYI this will be lower than our own titles so we get to sell more copies of our own games.

Step 5: Post copies of your games to us for final assessment, if we demand changes you have to make them and then once changes made send the game back to us. If we find more issues we repeat the process, this will be at your expense

Step 6: Market the game yourself. Our highly conservative Japanese managers have backgrounds in engineering and don't understand the importance of marketing and promotion.

Follow these regulations and we'll allow you to put a fancy gold logo on the game case stating we have approved of this game. Isn't that nice of us? (The logo printing will be paid by yourselves.)
