I love Nintendo. They have my money regardless, BUT if all this is true my interests has been intensely piqued!! I think with Nvidia onboard and Nvidia cancelling a supposed gaming device in lieu of the NX that Nvidia has MUCH MUCH more vested interest in the success of the NX. Subsidizing the cost of the hardware for some cut of profit wouldn't be far fetched. AMD has provided so much of the GPU of so many consoles, I think Nvidia is much more deeply involved than we realize. I think the NX is going to surprise.

I hope you are right... I never liked anything about the Wii, hated the tablet controller on the Wii-U and disliked the 3d option on the 3DS, even tough I've owned nearly every console released by Nintendo since 1985, After the Gamecube (and DS for handhelds) they have really lost me as a "hardcore" fan. I am always looking at Nintendo but buying their consoles is something that is deffenitely not a sure thing anymore, since I've mostly migrated to PC these days.

The NX would need to have 3th party support, preferably be in the x86 architecture type and have a large storage capability to download games instead of physical copies, and some more things, I just want something that feels like its made for the future :)

Anyway, long rant, but I cannot wait till we see the console and I do hope they spare no money in making that fast-streamlined gaming experience with good third party support and online experience!

From what I have read because the Pascal design and Nvidia ports from x86 will be a non issue.
