The NX is confirmed to be a home console. (not that it needed any confirmation)

Honestly, that doesn't really confirm anything... Of course they are hard at work on their next home console, they have been forever, they are also hard at work for their next handheld too which they have also said before I believe... But at this point, it wouldn't surprise me if it was

...How can you say that it doesn't confirm anything? He literally said, plain as day, that the system they said publically that they were working on publically, which is the NX, is a home console. That's a hard confirmation.

But here's another hard confirmation from yesterday by the director in charge of Metroid Prime.

"If we started for Wii U now, it would likely take three years or so. So it would likely now be on Nintendo's NX console."

NX console. Not hand held. He even specifically referred to the Wii U in the preceding sentence. It's confirmed. Hard. Twice.

Well the metroid prime one certainly is a lot more of a confirmation then the quote in this thread so you should certainly put that in the OP. They have said publically that they were working on their next home console before the NX even got mentioned so the quote in the OP alone doesn't really confirm anything but the quote in the OP + Metroid Prime Quote can certainly confirm it
