Fiji, by definition, is the top-of-the-line GCN 1.2. The cards based on Fiji start from 175W and go for $600 and then some. Why on earth would you want to start with something like that and then 'cut down'? I mean, it's not like there are not smaller GCN 1.2 chips like Tonga.

Thats it. I'm out of here.
P.S: Shame on you 10K...that was some dumb shit you did there.

It's practically ancient dude.
OK.
Here's a depiction of what the NX could look like.
I've included 4 Ks, a port, a card slot and polaroid since that's what people claim it will have. Also based on some blueprints I found when rummaging through Kimishima's bins.

Some of the sources are gaming journalists with no confirmed insider information?
Well, that defused rather quickly.

So trustworthy rumors:
Zelda+Smash NX ports
Splatoon/MM are in the works but uncertain
CPU is slightly better than the other systems.

The only thing that doesn't make sense is how did 10k get the info on the ports before Emily backed it up? Was that reported elsewhere before either got to it?
I's disappointing how 10k took someone's tweet and passed it off as a source, that part is not okay.
However most of that is exactly what I assumed 10k was doing and I thought you guys were approaching it the same way?
He's been fairly transparent regarding that. The one source he's been adamant about himself is clearly that one dev. It's not like he's lying about that. The others aren't nearly as trustworthy because they aren't developers.
Gaf only sees what it wants to see
LOL They claim Emily's comments on this very forum as sources that told them that info.
Heh, I knew things were too good

Never change, bg
Getting verified by mods 100% helps a lot and it has been a trustworthy thing up to now: you're verified if you give good proofs. Otherwise, bish-hammer! But 10k didn't get the full verification process. Nirolak explained as such earlier in the thread
Zelda and SSB are already confirmed from other sources. SMM and Splatoon can never come because 10k source is covered. It can always be that "they weren't able to move the current install base". Luigi's Mansion 3 was also previously rumoured.

Ok, it's not $600, it's $500 - that must be our Fiji. And the NX will be running a Fiji at idle.
Gaf, you can do better.

I think Emily said there were 4 before 10k posted.

Regardless of the rumors validity and what games will ultimately release, the timing of those rumors are what don't make sense given what we now know of 10k's vetting process.
The mere fact that Emily came out with the same rumor like 20 minutes after 10k is making me wonder where 10k got that information from originally
Haha, this makes the thread worthwhile :-3OK.

Her tweets came 15 minutes after 10's original post
She said there were four ports -- including Smash Bros and Zelda -- 4 days before 10k posted.

How do we know 10k didn't just make an educated guess on what those four games were? She gave a ton of hints on what those games were.

Yup. She also confirmed Zelda and Smash. Then she point to 2 or 3 other users who had guessed the other 2 games. I believe we collectively concluded it was Splatoon and Mario Maker.

She didn't disclose the titles though until after 10k did afaik.
But if she did, then that really is the deathkneel in all of 10k's leaks (he could have just filled in the blanks too--wouldn't be surprised given what we know)
If I'm correct, she was one of his sources on that. They had talked and she shared something with him. I believe this was about the 4 games.
Well that's unfortunate, but explains the craziness of stuff like Polaris, 14nm, PS4K ballpark, etc.
Still, there is the fact that Emily Rogers didn't debunk the first batch of rumor, so (like zhuge said as well) it's not necessarily all bullshit.
Yes, a lot earlier.

This.
Yeah it's not impossible. I mean, i got 4/4 tooM it wasn't exactly super hard. But maybe he just heard that directly from Emily.

That would certainly explain it then.
The important bit wasn't that there were 4, it was what those 4 were

Why would he be banned. It stated from the get go it was rumour and should be taken with a pinch of salt.

To be fair the Smash port leaked forever ago
And honestly with the WiiUs legacy... Ports of the flagship games were an easy peasy prediction

Repurposing rumors he read elsewhere and parading it around as if he was told by a source himself isn't quite the same, if ZhugeEX is to be believed
