Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Will You Be Angry If NX Is Only Moderately More Powerful Than Wii U?

I personally would rather have a very low cost device. But that's simply because if I ever get a nintendo system (very low chance but still a chance) it would never be more than a secondary machine.

I'd have to say no. Its Nintendo, all their games end up looking beautiful on their own hardware.

I can see the NX being more like Fire/Playstation TV but more powerful. It will be able to play all past and present games through the eShop.

Not one bit. I have a PC for good graphics. My PS4, supposedly some awesome graphics powerhouse, can't keep up. I play consoles for exclusives, not graphics.



I wouldn't be angry, but disappointed because I expect better from Nintendo and know they are capable of better.



Not angry, just disappointed.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Microsoft & Sony spent about 7-8 years on their first HD consoles before making a big upgrade. Nintendo is just getting use to HD development and they are supposed to have a huge increase in power already while having a strong software output? I don't think that's very realistic at all.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

I dont care as long as nintendo doesnt put a gimmick into the thing driving up the price



I don't really care abouts its being super powerful, but it has to be able to play third party games. If it will attract the, its a whole different deal.

Well anything can play third party games. The Wii U can play third party games. This is operating under the assumption that it's a hardware that's only a minor bump from the Wii U (as the Wii was from the GameCube) but has the added functionailty of real portable play.

That's my secret when it comes to Nintendo hardware! I'm always angry about it, even when I'm having the time of my life enjoying gaming on it.


This made me laugh so hard. It was hilarious!

OT I won't be disappointed. The problem with Wii U is the lack of games, not the power of the hardware. I actually have no problems with the hardware. If they jump to x86 and keep the power in the realm of Wii U I won't be angry. If the system gets all the games from handheld and console teams, then I will have all the games I want.
