I must admit I still think it could have some sort of VR in limited form perhaps augmented VR. Maybe a handheld that doubles as a VR visor and has camera's built in so the gameplay is seen with your normal vision. Maybe a handheld with a high definition 1080p screen but which a body that quickly clips into a VR visor design similar to the google cardboard VR visor but done properly. Whatever I'm very interested to know what it is.

VR is still expensive, and Nintendo has stated that they want NX to be affordable.

And a handheld is too bulky and heavy to think of a solution like the Samsung Gear VR.

 A budget VR system running at a slightly lower resolution with the underlying hardware not super capable but still capable of amazing 3D for cartoon graphics like Mario and Zelda is perfectly possible.  However that said I really don't know what NX is and may be something completely different.
