Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Emily Rogers: NX prototype had a 6.2" 720p multi-touch touchscreen, dock USB ports

A lengthy conversation about weather 6" is enough with some saying it's too big, don't go beyond 5.5". Clearly this place is a sausage fest.

A portable home console. For example, the GameCube.

I just dont get it, if a handheld that literally transforms into a console isnt considered a hybrid than i dont know what is.

If it has a red emblem it's an autobot, if it has a purple emblem then it's a decepticon.

Rumours, rumours never change.

Since the announcement of the NX, when gamers first heard about the new Nintendo console, rumours and leaks have surfaced all over the internet, causing people to go from annoyed to simple, psychotic rage.
In the year 2016, after months of tiresome waiting, the destructive nature of the internet could sustain itself no longer. The world was plunged into an abyss of forum debates and shitstorms.
But it was not, as some had predicted, the end of 8th gen. Instead, the apocalypse was simply the prologue to another bloody chapter of Nintendo's history. For Nintendo had succeeded in destroying the internet– but rumours, rumours never change.

I lol'd :D

 

@OP: I'm inclined to believe Emily, especially since a lot of her leaks/statements have been supported bi Liam Robertsson, or whatever his name is, and he does have serious connection within the industry.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

I'll be fine with 720p rez on a 6.2 inch screen if it means good battery life. Not sure why my phone has 2K rez for it's 5.7inch screen to be honest.

Autobot confirmed :)

720p is exactly the resolution I was hoping for in a handheld. THe NX is rumoured to have enough processing power to produce good looking games at native res consistently, but 6.2 inches? The Wii U Gamepad felt clunky because of this size. Hope they slim it down.

As for the console...no. Just no. That would a a step sideways. The dock should overclock the NX so that 1080p can be reached with no visual or performance hit.

She* is a fairly popular leaker by now. She's most of the time right, but doesn't give any illogical predictions/"leaks". As in, she's too safe. (She confirmed Paper Mario for Wii U, Zelda being ported to NX, and other stuff I dont remember, but anyone could have guessed both of those things.)

Any leaks on if the NX will have a Mario game yet? :D

According to a rumor from MCV, there will be one with in 6 months of launch. So the infamous launch window.

6.2" is the size of the Wii U Gamepad screen, not the Gamepad itself, that was 10.2"

So far these are rumours & there aren't any about the console size itself!

Didn't want to post in this thread, but I will just say that I hope the NX's screen is not the same size as the gamepad's. Gamepad screen is as big as a 3DS XL, which is just barely able to fit in my pocket. The full NX would be bigger than that, so it loses it's ability to be pocketed which definitely sucks. There's simply no need to give it such a big screen when you can also play it on your TV.
