Dam some of ya'll fall for this shyt everytime. "Cutting edge" lol.:duck: If the console is a home/portable hybrid it won't be that powerful people. Guess what the chip in your phone is cutting edge but that doesn't mean it's running UC4 anytime soon. I'm sure nintendo is aiming at X1 level at the max. Don't say your weren't warned. :yeshrug:















Remebers the old WUST threads on GAF and the imagined power of the Wii U:dame:















Cutting edge Nintendo console:mjlol::mjlol::mjlol:

:mjlol: @Fatboi1 @Kingshango EXACTLY!!! The NX being a Nintendo-branded 2016 refresh of the Nvida Shield would technically be industry leading tech

:ld: Last time I spent money on Nintendo was in 2008 when I bought a Wii and Brawl. Besides some virtual console games, Brawl was the only game I bought for it. I sold the Wii in 2010 and sold Brawl 2 years later.

Nintendo has been irrelevant to me since the GameCube era, which sucks since i used to be a Nintendo head before I started fukking with Sony. That GameCube and PS2 combo was :ohlawd:

Now with the Wii U, the only game that interest me is Bayonetta 2. I don't care about anything else on the system.

The NX is make or break for Nintendo. One problem is that, assuming it comes out next year, it will be launching in the middle of the generation with both the PS4 and Xbox One hitting their strides with games. With all these massive games like battlefront and COD, most people are going to end up just buying the system that their friends have at this point.

Then, even if it does end up being more powerful than those two systems, in a couple of years, the PS5 and whatever MS calls their next system will be out and Nintendo will be in the same situation over again.

Nintendo is between a damn boulder and extremely difficult place. To go from selling 100 million to being lucky to sell 15 million with consoles and then to go from 150 million to maybe 65 or 70 million with handhelds is terrible.

Sony did pretty decent with the PSP but the Vita is on life support and Sony has pretty much said there won't be a successor. With the advent of phone gaming the handheld market is in serious trouble. Even though the next Nintendo handheld won't have to compete with Sony, they will still be competing with phones, which have been a godsend for parents with small kids.

Instead of having to buy a $150 or $200 handheld system and then on top of that buying $30 games, just give the kid an old phone and they're set.

Last but not least, is the price of the NX console. If it's anything above $300 It might as well be dead out the gate. The PS4 and Xbox One are both $350 now and already have a decent catalogue of games in their lineup. Not only that, they will more than likely get another price drop in 2017 bringing them down to $300.

If the NX console is to be successful $250 should be the price, but at most $300.

I don't want Nintendo to fail but they have long road ahead of them.

Right now you have a whole generation of young kids growing up who couldn't give no kind of fukks about Mario, Zelda, Pokemon and other major Nintendo IP's. They definitely need to change that.

I didn't say it would be for a fact "Industry leading tech". Just reporting the rumors going around Im also betting that it's gonna end up being about as powerful as a Xbone. I just hope it's good enough for 3rd parties to support.

I dunno why you're getting mad a me for? Do you get mad at the messenger often?:yeshrug:

I think this is more of a reflection of us growing up, not kids moving away from Nintendo games. Nintendo isn't as doomed as we all think.
I am around kids a lot (no :sitdown:) and know a few people who work at youth centers. All the kids still rock with Nintendo heavy, knowing when all the 1st party games drop. It's a never ending cycle.

The company is smart with their money and makes profits on their systems extremely fast.

Over 50 million 3ds have been sold. Kids/people still care
