Yes you can like a bad game, doesn't mean the game isn't bad though.

Except for the broken combat system and the lack of partners? :P. I'll wait until we know more, that Colour Splash doesn't looks good at all if they make the same mistakes.

After Super Paper Mario it wasnt hard to impress me...

Wii U like platform is dead, there is no point to through additional resources on dead platform when they will have complete new platform.They will release on Wii U only what they already announced for Wii U.

I could see some (former WiiU) games being very easy to port to WiiU.. and not reqiure much "additional resources"..

And Why not.. keep promise.. make money.. Win Win.. :)

If the NX will play Wii U games then I will wait for that if not I guess I'll have to pick up an Wii U before the end of the year.

I wonder if this kinda confirms Pikmin 4 as a NX title.

We know from SuperMetalDave that there's only one more Wii U title from Nintendo coming this year and that's Paper Mario.

No point in releasing Pikmin 4 next year for Wii U as production will be halted by then.

So I'd guess at least Zelda + Pikmin 4 in the NX launch window.

Soooo the 3DS continues????

Does that mean the NX will be a console first?
Then handheld version come later?
Or still both comes out at the same time?



Pocky Lover Boy!

For the many reasons already given, but whatever, be in denial, no skin off my bones!

Yeah I think 3DS will be kept around for longer it seems. 

My guess is NX is a mobile console but *NOT* in a traditional handheld form factor. 

Maybe later when they can die shrink to 10nm they will release a pocket handheld version of NX, but that would actually make sense, it's easier to make a console since you don't have extreme thermal/power restraints.

I think this makes it clear that NX will absorb Wii U, as indicated by Iwata. I think this will be an interesting transition, unlike any other. You may even see some NX games playable On Wii U.
