They seem pretty confident that NX will be seen at E3...glad they can be so confident because I don't see it happening at all.

I doesn't look to me that are confident at all.

 

We're awaiting/hoping for more of a hardware announcement at E3...

...Honestly, unless we really cut the looks back I think we're looking to Nintendo's next console.

...I suppose if they don't announce something at E3 or soon after we will have a go at it.

It was pointed out to Bell that Nintendo's stated there'll be no 'NX' hardware announcement at E3, and he clarified further.

...We could reach a fairly solid 30FPS [on Wii U] but it might take a hell of a lot of work. On the other hand, about halfway through us finishing, Nintendo might announce a new console (I have zero knowledge on this BTW but I've heard 'rumours'). Our work might just be the best thing that ever hit that new console in the driving sim genre.

So we're playing a waiting game at the moment and yes, economics do come in to it.

I suppose confident is the wrong choice of word. A better choice might be "hopeful". Either way they don't sound particularly enthusiastic about the project; "I suppose we'll have a go at it" sounds like they're doing it to fulfil backer obligations rather than by choice.
