So will this be on youtube or what?

 

[Mithos]

This isn't going to output anything close either though. Wii U on the go maybe.

As long as the price is right, hmm I payed €150 for my Wii U, so there Nintendo, €150 for a portable Wii U maybe I would pickup.

 

[Via Purifico]

Finally, the day is here.

 

[Empyrean Heaven]

Listening to TJ Perkins' entrance theme to get hyped!

 

[……forgetit]

So what crucial details should we expect to not see today?

I'm thinking:

Price
Specs
Launch lineup
Specific launch date (what day in March)
Bundles
Third parties on board

I don't want to expect too much out of today, anything else we likely won't see?

It will basically be a "here it is, running Zelda," and then a "join us in [specific city] on [specific date] for more info, press previews and games. "

 

[wild wild rice]

I'd expect that at the full reveal which could be as early as next week. Not today. Likely just one first party game today, rumored to be a new Mario game built specifically for NX.

Word is that three devs have reveals for after the conference. That may or may not have been a rumor. If true, Ubisoft is highly likely.

Probably be Just Dance 2017 tho.

 

[Jim_Cacher]

Kamiya is wondering what the NX will be called.

 

[piccio_ssl]

subtle ... i like it lol

 

[jmdajr]

It's gonna be beautiful. Fantastic.

 

[Skittzo0413]

You'll not see the bolded.

Oh everything on that list I think will not be shown today. That's a list of nots.

Trying to figure out what else not to expect.

The BGE2 rumor stated that a CG trailer is prepared for the NX reveal, so I wouldn't expect to see it in a standalone trailer if that's what you're implying.

But who knows, rumors are rumors.

 

[Miroku129]

Please be good.

Please be good.

Please be good.

Spoiler

Its gonna be good

 

[The Last One]

You'll not see the bolded.

He said "expect not see"

 

[Sheroking]

Safe bet is a view of the system, how it works and maybe a game running on it. This Wii U reveal trailer is your best bet for comparison IMO.

 

[The Last One]

It will basically be a "here it is, running Zelda," and then a "join us in [specific city] on [specific date] for more info, press previews and games. "

Exactly what I'm expecting

Edit: oh, and the official name/logo

 

[BGBW]

I'm expecting the return of Non-Specific Action Figure.

 

[Firemind]

no high spec handheld pls

i couldn't take it

 

[SuperEpicMan]

I hope they show more than just Zelda. Whilst it looks great, showing a slightly better version isn't going to have the same impact as seeing the new Mario game or even a Metroid game as well.

 

[purseowner]

no high spec handheld pls

i couldn't take it

Couldn't take how awesome that would be, or?

 

[Scrawnton]

I kind of hope they provide a date and price so Gamestop will open up preorders today.

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

God I hope this satisfies me as a big screen gamer. I love Nintendo games but am really not interested in a handheld.

This gen has been a duff so far, hopefully Ninty can change that. Plus with the Scorpio, PS4.2 and Red Dead announcements, things are maybe finally starting to warm up!

 

[Jiguryo]

I don't remember seeing this idea and it might be kinda late for that kind of speculation, but... What if the NX's cartridge port follows the 3DS standard?

 

[MADGAME]

Is there a youtube link?

 

[R00bot]

Fuck, I am so goddamn ready to finally see this thing.

 

[Firemind]

Couldn't take how awesome that would be, or?

it'll have shit build quality and you know it

 

[hemo memo]

He said "expect not see"

I expect them to mention Ubisoft atleast.

 

[Axass]

I always have more games than I can play, either in my backlog or in my wishlist. There are always interesting games coming up, the industry is fine.

Seems to me you're fine. The industry however is on route to crumble under its own weight.

But enough of this, today is a day of HYPE!

They're positioning it as a home console first, so you never know, it might impress you. There's no confirmation on anything the dock does for instance. Hopefully we find out today!

 

[GinoFelino]

Please be good.

Please be good.

Please be good.

Spoiler

Its gonna be good

 

[sphinx]

Please Nintendo, don't stay quiet until January after this..

oh this is probably the safest bet ever.

this is the very definition of nintendo throwing us a bone because we beg them to.

they are doing everything they can to name this 3 minute thing a "PRE-announcement", "Preliminary look" and wordings that point at "we aren't doing a full reveal just yet, we have a Q4 2016 to take care of"

I hope twitts are spot on regarding name, looks and gimmick though

 

[Lazaro]

I kind of hope they provide a date and price so Gamestop will open up preorders today.

Shit. that means getting ready to fight those stupid eBay scammers.

 

[AuthenticM]

I'm currently listening to the Super Mario Galaxy soundtrack. I'm inviting all to do the same.

[oreomunsta]

Less than 2 hours until greatness

Too bad I have an early morning meeting that goes right over the announcement :'''(

 

[Keyouta]

Hoping for a good reveal/teaser trailer. If they show it off correctly, 3 minutes should be enough time to get things like console look, name, and a game or two to demo it shown off. I'll be at work but try to watch it asap.

 

[LeeRoyBrown]

All this needs to do is tell me I can play Pokémon Sun/Moon and Zelda BotW on the same system and I'm sold.

 

[SkullHydra]

I start work right as this will air. Feels bad, man.

 

[Plinko]

Don't look too much into that "home console" thing--semantics.

I accept your invite.

 

[Compsiox]

Can't wait to see what they've got up their sleep.

Please don't be underwhelming, speculation/hype aside.

 

[Hispanic! At the Disco]

All I need it so see the console and controller, the name and logo, and to let other developers talk about it and their games for it.

 

[Zedark]

Safe bet is a view of the system, how it works and maybe a game running on it. This Wii U reveal trailer is your best bet for comparison IMO.

Ugh, that first minute. What a cringefest. Hope they do a better job than that.

 

[Z3M0G]

So who was correct with the leak that the reveal is this week?

 

[jediyoshi]

All this needs to do is tell me I can play Pokémon Sun/Moon and Zelda BotW on the same system and I'm sold.

Welp, you've got the PC if all else fails

I hope so. After skipping the Wii U I will pre-order the sucker today if you can!

 

[SparksterMeta0]

WHAT IS IT?
We'll finally find out.

 

[KAL2006]

Didn't someone mention each region will have there own stream. Could that imply price details in the trakler

Accepted.

 

[Kinsei]

So who was correct with the leak of the reveal this week?

Emily Rogers was one of the first to say this week.

 

[Gummb]

I'm so tired of this election cycle and here comes Nintendo to save the day. I'm sure average anxiety is up in the US. We could use a little fun right about now. Good luck Ninty!

 

[KodaRuss]

Hopefully Nintendo knocks it out of the park with this. Might be the first Nintendo console I buy since the N64.

Been waiting to figure out what console should sit next to my PS4. What are the chances Gaf shuts down today, Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer and official NX news in the same day. Almost like christmas morning.

 

[HeelPower]

Are they done with directs ? You'd think this warrants a direct.

Considering how wacky the leaks seem to be,I think 3 mins will only raise questions.

Hope its not a crappy reveal.
