The Nintendo Xenomorph. The company is reading the tea leaves again and has decided to begin a bioweapons division.

The Nintendo NX is an indescribable console. It doesn't physically appear to conform to any sorts of laws of reality or euclidean geometry. The color of its shell doesn't occur in nature at all. You can't focus your eyes on it - if you tried looking directly at the NX your vision sort of slides over it constantly. The only way you can catch a glimpse of it is occasionally from the corner of your eye, but trying to comprehend what you are seeing drives even a stronger man insane.

Some say it's a new form of NDA protection from Nintendo for beta testers. Some think the company is dealing in some shady occult business. The multitude of ancient runes adorning the NX's shipping box raise questions that the user manual leaves unanswered.

When you lay down to bed and switch off the lights sometimes in the middle of the night a faint voice can be heard. "Letsa play" it beckons from the darkness. A faint glow emanates from your living room.

Give it 30 seconds and it'll reconfigure itself like the T-1000. Such is the power of the NX.

The NX was actually sent from a far-distant dystopian future to slay John Connor boredom.

Too many syllables. I would vote for the Nintendo Codebreaker, but people might think that it's a device for safecrackers.

I've already been saying it, I'll probably be really disappointed unless the actual name is somehow better. But how could it be, especially from Nintendo?

I'm actually kind of hoping that it's two separate devices and that getting both is quite expensive. I'd really rather that than either device being half arsed.

A console being expensive is something that doesn't really bother me, as its a one time cost for a platform lasting (hopefully) five years.

I'll pay £500 for the home and mobile consoles if the thing is 720p +.
