Forums - Nintendo Discussion - So I think it's pretty safe to assume Nintendo will NOT be revealing NX live at TGS 2016

Eh, no doubt, but when they announced NX would not be at E3, a lot of people assumed they would wait for TGS. I personally think it's a very smart idea to do a direct personally.

Beyond that, a lot of people were anticipating the announcement mid Sep reveal if they did do a direct. 

This pretty much destroys both theories.

Imo if they dont reveal it by end sep, its because its launch has been delayed again.

I mean normally companys reveal a product 5months before launching it right?

So the rumored September reveal has another date crossed off the chart. That leaves late august at earliest and late October/early November at latest I would guess... Cant see them revealing it later than that.

If it launches early march, 2017..... you cant have them doing the reveal in November (3-4 months of time only????).

If its not shown in september, I think its because its delayed.

Early November reveal, late march release that would be close to 5 months. One month less than Xbox One for instance.  I think all are within margin of what is acceptable, I think September/October is most likely though but I am A-okay with an August reveal as well :P So much smoke everywhere

Why would anyone expect Nintendo to be at TGS? They never go to TGS.



Never expected them to reveal it on TGS.
There is going to be a special event for it (like for Playstation 4 and Xbox One).



The fact that Nintendo hasn't revealed it yet should be a concern. If this things supposed to be out by March 2017, you'd think they would've said something by now.

I wish we would just get some word from Nintendo on something. It's been ages...



I bet the Wii U would sell more than 15M LTD by the end of 2015. He bet it would sell less. I lost.

since NX wasn't at E3 i think a dedicated release event is most likely.

TGS was never in question

Sony gave 2weeks notice for the PS4 reveal, so even August is still a podibility

Sony announced it at February 20, 2013 (going by wiki)

That was like 7months before it launched.

 

I doubt Nintendo will launch a console, without atleast 5months prior haveing announced it.

If its not shown in September, its because its delayed to a later date than March 2017.

 

Nintendo says Marketing is why the Wii U sales are as they are..... if they believe that, they wouldnt pull the rough out from under their marketing teams, by just launching the damn thing without a "announcement" and a window of time for them to work in.

The PS4's reveal, not release ;)

Because they have a console to announce, and they've never done that outside a live press conference at E3.

But now they are taking on a HUGE risk, again one that was brought up when E3 was nearing. They may vastly limit exposer by doing this, and also it could backfire if TGS has some really amazing announcements that trump what Nintendo has to show. It could make or break them in one swoop.



Why do we care? Everyone apparently knows what it is, when it releases, its games...



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.
