I'd be absolutely mind boggled if they revealed NX in January.

You should be worried about a delay for the March release if they reveal NX in 2017.
Which wouldn't make sense since Emily said the NX was ahead of schedule.
Modbot, you know what to do.
Yeah. Nintendo's feelings matter way more than those of the people buying their products. Way more.
I just feel like something's wrong if they need to wait this long. All that you need for a good reveal is a good selection of titles to show off and a good explanation of the hardware and it's capabilities. Not being ready to show 6 months before launch means at least one of three things:
- The hardware is extremely hard to explain, which means that marketing troubles are sure to happen.
- The launch titles aren't in a presentable state or there aren't enough of them, meaning that we should expect the "launch window" crap they pulled with 3DS and Wii U.
- They don't want to step on either their own or their competitors' toes by announcing too close to them.
Only the last one isn't necessarily a bad sign, but even then that's part of why I think January is likely (with the other part being that they're certainly going to hold a January event with launch details either way). If they don't reveal by the end of October, I think that we'll be past the point f them simply not being ready with no issues
We're 6 days into September, guys.I already gave my reasons 5-10 pages ago why it makes no sense for Nintendo to do an Apple style launch. (A dedicated video game machine does not compare to a Smartphone when it comes to the mass market.)
Even someone else pointed out how the original iPhone and iWatch had around 6 months from reveal to launch.
The NX is a new product, not a revision. Even that NES Mini-Classic which was revealed in August still gives it a few months before release but, that is a familiar product because it caters to people who use to play NES games.

In what way though? If the system was ready but not the games then it's still useless. The GameCube was delayed because the games weren't ready, not the hardware.
They don't have to work any magic, just get rid of Android and its shitty libraries. A TX1 used with Vulkan in a console built specifically for gaming will leave PS360 (and Wii U) in the dust. That's a fact. Just look at the specs.
If we want to believe these rumors, maybe we should remember that one of them clearly states that the NX will use a Pascal based chip. And about that other post:
If you want to use this... logic, then we are already past that phase. The console described in these rumors is certainly underwhelming specs wise compared to the Polaris based console between PS4 and Neo in power, and even the concept isn't that great for many people.

Console level OS is considerably more efficient than Android which has a lot of baggage.What makes you think Nintendo can make an OS any better than Android ?? Have you used a Wii , Wii U , and or a 3ds... It was really bad.
Also the API used in consoles goes way lower than vulkan. I doubt Nintendo is going to use vulkan tbh.. if they did that would be a first step to making things a lot easier.
If NX is delayed, Nintendo will make it publicly known by the end of October.
This is why like I've said before Retros game(s) will absolutely be there and Mario should be there. This is Nintendos future cornerstone after the failure of the Wii U and if their plan is to ride NX for a couple of years, then they need to go ham to make it sell.This is one of the more likely reasons I can think of too. If one of the big selling points of the NX is going to be a unified library then they're going to need a pretty large amount of trailers, which requires those games to be in a state which can be showed off adequately.
I've stated what I think the statement meant. Basically, MyNintendo cloud data from Nintendo's mobile games can transfer over to NX.What if the mobile "compatibility" is part of a companion app that releases way before the NX itself? Integrates Pokemon Go, Miitomo. Gets potential adopters used to the platform and also acts as a direct (hah) means of product awareness.
Basically the kind of companion platform app tying the NX to mobile some folks have speculated about, but happening before release that is a specific part of a new release model?
I probably just have NX fever. Hope I don't get us bodmotted.

An example would be MiiMaker connecting to the Miitomo cloud data and you can have your system's avatar dressed up like in Miitomo.
Another example would be getting new troops in Fire Emblem mobile or getting clothes, bells, and furniture in Animal Crossing mobile
The report about Nintendo's own mobile games being compatible likely refers to the games made under their partnership with DeNA. Pokémon GO isn't amongst those games, so I wouldn't be too sure about that on the NX. Plus there's supposedly no camera on the NX, anyway. And let's be honest, Pokémon GO may end up with a fraction of its existing audience by March.What if the mobile "compatibility" is part of a companion app that releases way before the NX itself?

Great job once again! I made this video a while back (https://youtu.be/yXn8VuC7QIU) and what you did here brings my drawings to life and utilizes the new rumors in what you created. (My video was from several months ago.)
Thanks for your work!

Though if you ask me, it'll most likely be for stuff like carrying over your Miitomo clothes to your NX Mii, or transferring your furniture from Animal Crossing Mobile to the NX game.
Going back to my Calendar theories.
It's now Sept 7th. If we assume 3 weeks ahead for a live announcement here we go...
That basically mean the 28th at the earliest.
If we assume they wouldn't announce on a Friday they basically have Wed and Thurs of this week to send invites to make the Sept cut off.
So yeah all signs point to October for a live event if we go off the 3 week theory.

They never said September.I think Nintendo will still keep their word on revealing something NX related this month if not everything is ready to be shown yet. Wii console was revealed first, before the Wii name, remote and games were shown I believe? Same sort of thing could happen here. That way they spread the hype and anticipation over the next 6 months with exciting tid bits, keeping NX news and hype relevant. Instead of blowing their load all in one go, and you don't hear anything new for 6 months.
Eurogamer were the ones who said September, not Nintendo. All Nintendo said was "this Fall".I think Nintendo will still keep their word on revealing something NX related this month if not everything is ready to be shown yet.

It's way more than 2x the 3DS. Plus it's supposedly a Wii U successor just as much as it is a 3DS successor.nx is basically a 3ds successor with power x2 of the 3ds.
Can't say I'm surprised
They never said September.
Not.Yeah this thing is coming out in November 2017 y'all.

You're off by like two orders of magnitude there.nx is basically a 3ds successor with power x2 of the 3ds.

3DS is 240p vs the NX's reported 720p screen. That's like 10 3DSsnx is basically a 3ds successor with power x2 of the 3ds.
Can't say I'm surprised
Sure but wasn't responding to that.They said this year not next year.
And some people are saying next year.
Where yall be guessing this stuff lol?I'm guessing the announcement will be after Sony's Neo's event
