If Nintendo launches a new console in 2016 (AMD Rumors) ...... will it be 8th or 9th gen

[KaosMike]

I think its easily feasible that that Nintendo's next console is a variant of what AMD prototyped a couple of years ago, fused in more with the Wii-U gamepad tech: Project Discovery

It would be pretty dope if it was backward compatible with any Wii-U games and work as a standalone tablet with
modular controls/buttons

The 3DS will be 5 years old by xmas 2016 I believe, and its hardware is ancient stuff that pushes out pixelated junk relative to whats out there now, so it makes sense to push that out first, I think everyone will want them to support the Wii-U for quite a few years to come.
