one thing is for sure, the announcement will take all of neogaf by surprise.

this is the only NX thread in the front page and most people won't get near it with that thread title.

I think the majority of gaf does not suspect in the least the announcement is imminent.

I dunno..this thread has over half a million views
 
Okay, I can't let the madness get to me, I sincerely hope she's right and see you at the big news.
But I'm glad she is going all in this time.
 
Its happening
Its not happening
Its tomorrow
Its yesterday
Its delayed
Its on track
Insiders rule
Insiders are horrible and should die
Its a handheld
Its 7tf+ home console

Fuck it all

I just want my NX, i want to know when I'll know what it is, please we need out of our misery
 
I guess we are going to see guest characters in Mario Kart 9.

Not only NB, but on Smash Bros there were like 10 companies/studios collaborating.

Well, if it's just direct port, then it could be just NB. IF there are more companies getting involved, then that's a good sign that we might get new contents. I hope.

Seriously hoping they reveal the Smash plans with the console. I have a feeling when the Smash Ballot was referring to how it could be used for ideas in "future games," I have a feeling that could mean Smash NX (as well as games way in the future but especially NX).

If they have even a modest amount of new content lined up, it'll sell NXs like crazy.

I just want to hear one sentence from anyone on Smash NX. It's getting new characters (or new contents) either way, it would be great for us to starting up our Smash Train.

I think they probably already have a plan for Smash NX ever since late 2014 to early 2015, so that would make it easier for them to regain those third party characters through license deals.


I feel like, until a real tier list settles for Smash 4, I don't want to see it's successor.

The "tier list" itself doesn't mean anything, but that's just a general time frame for which the game wont' feel as "fresh" anymore.

Well, Smash NX is rumored to be in works but we don't have any idea what it would be.

All I really want is the return of the Ice Climbers and around 2-3 newcomers, one of them being Inklings. Finishing up the DLC characters by giving them custom moves and Palutena Guidances is a must too. Hopefully all of that is reasonable given the time span of development they'd have (It's been almost a year since Corrin and Bayo were finished).

Then after that, Sakurai can have a decade long break.

It would be great to see them doing Palutena Guidances, Custom Moves, Assist trophies from Bayonetta, Street Fighter and Final Fantasy 7, Event Modes, etc for those DLC characters and new additions.

Honestly, I don't mind to see couple veterans and some numbers of newcomers. Seeing Rowlet3 in 3D model made me want him even more. I hope that they would consider Splatoon's Inkling and Rhythm Heaven Rep as well.

To be fair, I have been following the NX with close intent, manage an NX fan page, and pretty much salivate over Nintendo and have been avoiding this thread over the past couple of days, mainlyy because I am used to any news making it to it's own thread if it has substance.
 
For the record, I agree that we won't see Nintendo VR for a while, at least a year or two. But when you talk about latency between dock and handheld, isn't that something Nintendo actually has a great amount of experience with from the Wii U? Or is the level of the Wii U streaming latency still to great for VR?

They do, but the threshold of "usable" latency is far, far lower when you're talking about tracking a VR headset vs streaming a game to a Wii U gamepad. Worst-case latency on Vive's head tracking is reportedly 1ms (and that's the Vive Pre, the final hardware may even have improved on that), whereas Wii U's video latency is about 16ms. They could possibly get that down by processing the video on the camera/dock/whatever and only sending the positional data over rather that the full video stream, but getting consistent low-latency over an RF connection is still difficult, even with low bandwidth requirements. Also keep in mind that this latency would be added on top of the latency inherent in capturing and processing the video, which means that even if they could get the transmission latency down to, say 5ms, you're still looking at more than 5ms total latency for the head-tracking solution.
 
I swear! Every time I see NX in the title I get so excited then the crushing disappointment of reality sinks in.

My speculation? I'm not too sure about the hybrid console thing... Though if it is I do believe it'll be called Nintendo Cross or Nintendo X for short. I just want to see Zelda running on this damn thing already. It already looks so good on Wii U I can't even imagine what it would look like with PS4 or even better level power.

I remember going into this year all excited we're finally going to see the NX in June. How dumb I was...
 
Hillary campaign intern: "Whatever this NX thing is, this video game message board seems to really care about it. We should get Mr. Nintendo's endorsement for Hillary."
 
by the way I didn't include my prediction when the topic was about that,

I predict that nintendo will speak out about NX this or next week

but that they'll reveal in January.

sorry, #teamRevealQ12017 here
 
Sarcasm? Can't tell anymore.

No one uses sarcasm around here. We are all extremely wired on coffee and there is only time to sort manically through already-checked data, like when you lose your phone and check the same three pockets over and over again
 
Maybe Trump or Hillary Clinton will give us some news about the NX at the third debate.
 
Tbh. I dont think anything is happening this week.
low key i think its happening

but it isnt

but it is

it is not

...

or is it?
 
Imagine Reggie starting the Nintendo Direct like:

WHAAAAAAAT IS GOOOOING ON EVERYBOOODY,, HOW ALL YOU DOINNNNN??

I think I speak for everyone in this thread when I say I'll be extremely reassured and relieved if Reggie comes out drunk. It's the only fitting plateau for this manic ride
 
Maybe Trump or Hillary Clinton will give some news about the NX at the third debate.

"Donald believes that only American companies like Microsoft should make and sell video games in the U.S but I believe otherwise. Donald believes that only pure hardware specs can win console wars but that is not true. We have to build better relations with our partners and friends all over the world. That is why I have invited a very special guest for tonight's debate.




Kimishima, drop the bomb"
 
So you guys think the NX direct is going to be quirky or serious?

The last direct was humorous

Hmm I'm expecting all business. Nintendo usually only uses skits and comedy to reveal games or special hardware (like the Galaxy N3DS). For a new console / system reveal, I expect a pretty direct Direct. Lighthearted maybe, but not comical.
 
Maybe Trump or Hillary Clinton will give us some news about the NX at the third debate.

"I know announcements, I have the best announcements.."

"like right now, here, I'll tell you, here, I brought my best friend Kimishima to show his new videogame."

proceeds to announce, then win.. then the apocalypse comes
