Hereby it is manifest that during the time men live without a common power to keep them all in awe, they are in that condition which is called war; and such a war as is of every man against every man.

The people who call it "Ninty" usually hate Nintendo. You'd be giving them what they want.

Nintendo's gearing up for production, plans on 10 million NXs a year.

After listening to the last Bombcast, I'm not the only one who thinks a post holiday announcement is possible. I originally predicted January, but they speculated they could hold out until the actual month of release. Can't hurt those sweet 3DS/Wii U black Friday and Christmas sales.

Don't need a holster if you never stop shooting.

It's not an awful idea, but can they really keep leaks under wraps that close to release?

That's an honest question, I have no idea how NDAs function in the industry

I doubt they can keep a lid on it past their October investors report.

The NX takes the HDMI support of the WiiU, the portability of the New 3DSXL and the convenience of the GameCube Carry Handle and combines them into one miracle console, the Nintendo NX.

The current theory is that it's a hybrid. A portable console that can connect to a dock and become a home console.

After the Wii and Wii U why would you expect this? Nintendo hasn't seem super interested in doing that, which is fine because they make good games

Not sure where you got the impression that it'd compete on specs, it's always looked to be Wii-like in the sense that it'll leverage a novel design rather than raw horsepower.

All I see is a Nintendo system that's going to use cartridges that is referred to as an NX.

Super Nintendo games are back, will be playable with the new Super NX chip, every cartridge costs $300 though.

a 3rd identical console is probably a bad move. Also what would they do with it as a 1st party? Photo realistic mario with mustache tressfx?

What if it opens with his head like Mario 64 but instead of stretching his ears you could comb his mustache?

It's almost certainly a handheld that can hook up to a TV optionally, it's certainly not going to compete with the PS4 or X Bone.

There's the hand-held, a tiny box that improves performance when the hand-held is nearby, and a docking station for the hand-held. This guy leaked the PS4 Pro specs and Foxconn just got an order for the NX, so leak status is set at... Plausible!
