Didn't the president of the Pokemon company confirm the NX is a hybrid? So this could still be the concept to some degree.

nope he never stated anythihng of the sort. People took his quote and twisted into that he confirmed a hybrid

"The NX is trying to change the concept of what it means to be a home console device or a hand-held device"

Hmmm I don't particularly see it as a big stretch to gather he 'could' mean it is a hybrid. It certainly implies that Nintendo are attempting to either bridge the two or implement elements of the two concepts into one...

implies and confirming are two different things though,thats the point. He never confirmed a hybrid

Fair call. I dont think anyone would be falling out of their chair in shock if the NX is indeed a hybrid though.

But the D-pad is not split. They did the NX wrong!

Mind blown.

I agree with SMD that it would be weird if NX ends up being something similar to that device, although it's not impossible. Of course, if NX is like that, Nintendo will get a nice lawsuit from them... and rightfully so.

I guess we'll have to wait until Nintendo reveals the damn thing.

Nah. Nintendo won't be sued. They have their stuff patented. If anything if this thing ever sees the light of day, Nintendo lawyers will be dancing in the streets.

If apple can sue samsung for useing the same colour as them, and haveing rounded corners.....

The device in this video looks remarkably like what we ve heard the NX to be.

Why are people acting like this has any relation to the credibility of Eurogamer (and everyone else's) sources?

For years there have been many gaming tablets with optional controllers. None double as a home console though, and none have Nintendo games.

Razor edge from 2013.



Lol, you guys really want to believe that the leaks are wrong. NINTENDO's own patents which came tolight after the point, really do back up much of what was said of the NX.

Akun has been promoting this thing since 2015

Wasted money for Apple. Samsung explosive features make their devices unique.

See? This one got the split D-pad right, but forgot the detachable side controllers. These guys just can't get the NX right.
