I still think the NX Android rumour might have been on to something. A unified platform that competes for the mobile market is the way that Nintendo needs to go (they just need to get out of this arms race with Sony and MS).

I just can't see Nintendo making a console that is more powerful then the PS4. Nintendo is still struggling to make games run at 720P. In fact, the only solution that we have seen Nintendo come up with so far has been to either release games before they are complete (Splatoon) or to announce games that are very small in scope (Mario Tennis). Zelda has taken Nintendo 3+ years and Nintendo won't even attempt a Metroid Prime style game on the Wii U. Jumping to the PS4 level will be even harder for Nintendo since getting games to be seamless at 1080p is even giving the big 8th gen developers a lot of difficulty.

I really think the way to go is to build the NX platform around smart devices but which also has the ability to uspcale games when hooked up to your television. Therefore, the graphical capabilities of the NX will be foremost tied to mobile devices but if you want to upscale to Wii U quality on your television then that should also be an option (maybe a little faster then the Wii U).

that's because you're an idiot.

again, you're an idiot.

need I repeat?
