Yeah soundwaveeeeeeeee!Congratulations,rule out completely that the report might be false...


Digitimes is fairly reliable and well connected. Nintendo will likely come out tomorrow and deny the report, but it's probably true. Denial is the first stage of acceptance. 

Because it says what you want to hear?

Don't you see that the report mentions that Nintendo announced in March their plan to release NX in 2016,while they never did that?


Digitimes isn't some stupid fan site or "Nintendo Hut" or something like that. It's a tech industry news outlet, they called a lot of the PS4 and XBox One stuff while they were in development too. They have sources inside parts suppliers. There would be nothing to leak if Nintendo wasn't actively going out and preparing their supply partners to start getting ready for new hardware.

Article seems fake. Only the fact that NX will release in 2016 seems right imo.


Like I said, Digitimes is quite credible, also the list of partners they've cited there in the article do match up with Nintendo, several of them have worked with Nintendo in the past (ie: Macronix, PixArt, etc.).

20 million shipment target for the 1st year is massive, that heavily suggest a portable hybrid or multi-form factor line of hardware.

The article also mentions Nintendo has a time line for perhaps a summer 2016 (July) launch (Japan?).

That indicates to me again that this is a portable or portable centric platform which replaces both the 3DS and Wii U.


I totally agree.

I think that NX is afordible portable that can be connected on TV.
