If this is nintendos hyped up Nintendo NX, then lmao.
A controller you can use for your smart phones..... or a power glove...... Not sure if I should laugh or cry at this.



What I hope nintendo NX is:

a new consol, with a AMD x86 APU that has hybrid memory cube technology.

a new consol, equal to PS4 in performance atleast, without any money sinks in it (ei, no silly powergloves/gamepads) just a normal controller needed for it.

I think the idea in the OP is pretty goofy as well but I don't see how ur proposed plan is much better. Ur basically asking Nintendo to create their own version or PS4, 3-4 years after PS4 releases, who exactly would the target audience be?

Im assuming such a plan would be to get 3rd parties on board and attract the mainstream western demographic but who is going to upgrade their PS4/XB1 mid-gen for a slightly more powerful console that doesn't have any major differentiating features? The earliest this Nintendo consoles would release is Holiday 2016 or Holiday 2017, in which case PS4/XB1 will likely be at 100+ million sold, are these people going to jump ship to a new console just a few short years later when their console is still getting all the major titles and will future console owners choose the Nintendo console over the likely cheaper devices will vastly larger libraries and strong online communities?

Basically doing this just gives them Wii U level sales again because it's mostly people buying the console for the handful of Nintendo published titles each year.
