Forums - Gaming Discussion - Now the rumors can finally stop: NX is a home console, and not a "fusion/combination" device

http://gematsu.com/2015/07/dragon-quest-xi-announced-ps4-3ds-nx

 

With today's announcement or DQXI for PS4, as well as for 3DS and NX, it is clear and obvious that NX will actually be a straight up home console, just like all the others before from NES to WiiU.

It is not a fusion device (why make a 3 DS version), it is not Android, it is not any freak of nature...just straight up TV console.

Now, of course we cannot know its power, as we've only seen a PS4 version, but my guess is that it will be of comparable strength (a bit more or less than PS4).

Hopefully this will end all those multi device fusion nonsense rumors to rest.

Well, by the time the NX comes out, the 3DS will have a 60m userbase, so I don't think that fully debunks the NX Fusion.

Then again, I'm going to defend the Fusion idea until its fully and oficially debunked.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

It doesn't make it clear at all.. any speculation is the same as it was before this game's announcement.



How can you possible come to this conclusion when DX11 is obviously made to run on both home console and handheld?



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I hope it is just a home console, albeit with some kind of Nintendo flair, but if it is only as powerful as PS4 I will be very disappointed. I know Nintendo is less focused on power, but even so three years after the PS4 launch, you should be able to make a more powerful console and launch at an attractive price.

It could be a 3DS successor and the DQXI version on the NX is an enhanced 3DS version I don't think that's going to be the case but that's also a possibility.



Hello? Its not proven anything :-/



I dont see how this announcement includes that NX isnt handheld or hybrid.



So no 720p handheld and 1080p TV box with Unreal 4 support?

What if the NX gets the 3DS version though because it's a handheld?

Not that I'm saying it's a handheld, but at this point anything it possible until we finally see what the NX really is.
