I don't see why people still believe there will be a new console in 2016. Remember Wii U's launch? It was silent. If you release it in 2016, nobody would care for it. It would be another. Nintendo doesn't want that. And I said it before: thr next home console launch in late 2017. That's almost fact. Deal with it.

And where on earth is it good that Nintendo betrays Wii U owners? They will loose a lot of consumers' trust with a 2016 release.


You're right on one thing: Wii U's launch was silent, and that's why Nintendo is already teasing us with the NX, with past consoles there weren't this many news regarding the console before it was even officially announced, now we already have a small list of 3/4 titles that are almost confirmed for the system, plus we have lots of patents that were registered in the last few months. If Nintendo were to launch their next console in 2017 why would most of their development teams be already developing for the NX when the Wii U has still 2 years to live ? 

Releasing the system in 2016 is also a clever move due to the competition: in 2013 both PS4 and X1 will be only 3 years old meaning that the NX (if released with proper specs) will be leading hardware-wise for AT LEAST two years...

There's absolutely no Game confirmed for the NX. None.

Patents mean nothing. Around 90% of them never become reality.

Of course Nintendo already develops games for the NX even if it comes in 2017. Game development in the 21st century takes around 3 years. If the console is now much more powerful Nintendo may even need up to 4 years for some big titles.

PS4 and Xbox One will have their peak year in 2016. People will focus on these systems and nobody cares for a console which is the successor to a fatal flop. Just think about it: Many people still play on last Gen systems. In 2016 they will move to current gen systems. If you would have the choice to choose between the NX and a PS4, what would you take? Of course, the PS4. Nobody bothers about a new Nintendk console at this time. Nintendo needs to wait until those people have a PS4/Xbox One and then tries to get people taking the NX as a secondary console. Nothing else would make sense at this point of this generation. And leading in terms of specs doesn't mean anything. Developers will still programm their games with the PS4 as the lead platfrom. They won't even use the full power of the NX.

Well you have to believe in some infos even some of them are shit, and all infos we have are pointing that NX is coming next year, basically nothing points for 2017 release.

People believe it will be same TP situation because its almost exactly same situation with Zelda U. TP had had dual release I don't see why it would be different with Zelda U. Nintendo is economic company that wants to make profit and that's why they will release NX next year and that's why we will have Zelda U dual release.

You don't understand me. I give up. You'll find out next year that you were wrong.

Probably because the majority in this community believes every shit on the internet. Don't trust those people. These leakers a lifeless idiots. Don't gibe them the attention they want. Be a smart person :)

And I don't get it why people still believe there will be a Twilight Princess situation. If you would have read my post you would know that this certainly won't happen. Nintendo is a economic company that wants to make profit. It's not a company that wants to fullfill the dreams of some weird people of this community. They will do what's best for them and that is what I described.

You're talking like if you were some sort of prophet, you can't know for shure but facts as of what we know point at NX releasing in holiday 2016

And you're talking like you were some sort of prophet who talks about NX to come in 2016. Just saying. You don't know, I don't know. And the pointers you see may mean nothing.

If you look at what Nintendo is doing you can clearly understand that NX is coming out in 2016, Febbruary 2017 at the latest. It's the best thing that could happen for you Wii U owners too, Nintendo back in 2012 probably planned a schedule of 5 years, due to the sales problems the last two years will be rushed in a single one it beeing 2016 as you can tell by the large ammount of games coming out next year.

I don't see why people still believe there will be a new console in 2016. Remember Wii U's launch? It was silent. If you release it in 2016, nobody would care for it. It would be another. Nintendo doesn't want that. 

And why would people suddenly care for the NX console in 2017 if they wouldn't care in 2016? Please enlighten us!

Its not only me, almost nobody understand you when you say that NX will not come next year and you have nothing to backup such a claim, on other hand people are constantly telling you obvious reasons why NX will came next year and you just ignoring all that and saying, "you will find next year".

Because after 5 years people will magically say: "Hey, it's been 5 years after the Wii U launch, you know, the console we didn't buy! Let's toss a coin to see if we buy it or skip like the last one. No, better let's toss it 5 times! and we'll buy 5 games! because 5 years!"

It will indeed release on the Wii U, but this doesn't mean that it can't release on NX as well, which I believe is the case (a double release).



Bet with Teeqoz for 2 weeks of avatar and sig control that Super Mario Odyssey would ship more than 7m on its first 2 months. The game shipped 9.07m, so I won

I just love the phrase "Captain Obvious"

No special reason.



"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."
