I guess there wasn't much reactions over the lack of a PS Vita "Trinity"? lol
That PSP-like device.
Edit:
That means next week, TGS week.

Yep, I was thinking about that. Since a Vita successor would definitely be aimed at Japan, if we see it, it'll be at TGS. But I still doubt it exists and wonder if Sony would really announce ANOTHER piece of hardware this soon after the PS4 refresh. I could only see that happening if it's heavily connected to PS4 in some way (which, I mean, it undoubtedly would be, I suppose). But it was likely NX or some random device from a random company that very few of us will ever hear about.
I never believed, but it honestly would have made the event fantastic to me if it were there because of how surprising it would have been.
Still time in SCEJ's conference.
It was good when Sony showed the PlayStation family and Vita was left out.
I have to ask if revealing the reveal date of the NX would prevent Nintendo from riding the Super Mario Run wave. Announcing the date of the press conference would just keep Nintendo on people's minds; no real information is revealed just from the date. And then, Nintendo would be able to ride the wave from this Apple conference until the reveal (hopefully...pls) next week.
EDIT: Additionally, I do think it would be in Nintendo's best interests to get ahead of any potential "PS Trinity," even though I doubt the thing exists.
Don't know guys, to me it won't happen this week, Apple and Sony events will still have buzz around them, also they want that Mario App to receive the right attentions and coverage for the rest of the week....Starting next week to me is when a NX announcement really starts to get likely, a few days before TGS September 13/14 or right after that September 20

I'm not actually sure we're getting a date weeks prior to the reveal.
I'm starting to believe they will just announce a Direct one day in advance.
The theory about 09.13. sound like my last straw for September.
A neogaf member pointed out, that was the date when the 3DS, the Wii U and the Wii were revealed.
Would make sense to keep the streak, especially with it being a day before TGS and maybe as a nod to the end of the Iwata era.

Maybe I'm just a jerk but I feel like I've been patient enough. I mean, c'mon: Announcing an official release date but still not really announcing much of anything about what it is they're going to be releasing? I mean FFS they announced the March 2017 release date back in April and since then it's been nothing but crickets. We're about six months away from the expected release and no one outside of Nintendo (and tight lipped developers) has ANY flippin' clue what to expect.
Which leads to the endless amount of rumors being thrown around.
Honestly, each iteration of these rumors make me more exasperated with Nintendo as a whole.

I mentioned this yesterday, were Nintendo really waiting for reactions to Sony's event? We now know Nintendo made an appearance at Apple's event.
Some things are not going to make sense if they decide to reveal NX next year like some people think, which sounds like 3rd parties can't put out anything at launch because they need pre-orders and time.

Implying third parties are not aware of what NX is and don't have developer kits, which I highly doubt.
I agree but I'd day we just have to deal with it. Not much we can do about it, Nintendo don't care.
Wrong on both counts. The PS4 Pro is clearly a Big Mac.
I'm talking about pre-orders, this is after holidays if revealed. 3rd parties would have to delay launch titles if people prioritise buying Nintendo games for launch on such short notice.
Edit: This is factoring in that people are spending money on a system along with games. It's not the same thing being on short notice if you already have the system.

I don't think we'll hear it today. Next week is a clean slate ready for new news and NX news of course.

Eurogamer said "September", I don't think there has ever been a reputable source for any other date.
There were plenty of false rumors and speculations, but the most believeable one is Eurogamer's which said NX will be revealed in September, so still 3 weeks available
fabricated backlash

It was just that: A rumour.

For the love of GOD Mucho, take a break!
Re: Nintendo at Apple's conference, what if Nintendo aren't making handhelds anymore and all their handheld games are going to smart phones and tablets?

Who dat?
Would it be possible that they wanted to see the response from Sony before the wanted to reveal the announce date?
MODODM ‏told me: Week 16 to 21 sept
So that could be the case

I'm not sure if Nintendo operates this way.
They clearly showed in the past that they don't care about Sony or Microsoft.
But I bet NoA is having a field day today.

I guess he's broken the news on Devils Third and TPHD before they were announced.

The potential with smart phones and tablets is massive though. They'd be literally reaching everyone. Not something they can reach with their own handhelds. That Blue Ocean.
The home console can still exist for the non handheld market.

Haha. I'm only saying this in reaction to what I've seen today from Nintendo's surprise and well received appearance at Apple's conference, Pokemon Go on smart phones, and Miitomo before that and how all that exploded their shares.

What, you guys thought being able to eat apples in Breath of the Wild was a COINCIDENCE?
NX will be a set of two detachable MFI controllers for the iPhone 7 that also output the iPhone 7's picture to the TV via HDMI, and includes Tegra GPU technology that works in tandem with the iPhone's CPU. Games can be purchased as NX Cartridges (which fit into the NX) or via the App Store.
An optional dock accessory will charge your iPhone while also outputting video via HDMI. It'll have room for the iPhone alone and also the NX, charging the NX's battery as well. If you dock the NX while the iPhone 7 is attached to it, both will charge too.
"Has Nintendo finally gone third party? NintenDOOMed!"
No. Apple and Nintendo are merging into a single entity, making the NX a Nintendo first party gaming machine.
Appletendo NX. Lock it in.

Just in case someone is an occasional lurker and didn't spot the subtle satire, no I'm not an insider, yes this is a joke
Nintendo's next OS is going to be called Banana, as inspiration from Apple and for Iwata's love of Banana jokes.
I'm not serious
