| Samus Aran said: Where was this patent advertized as their next-gen console? Consoles can't have different versions? One with an optical drive and a cheaper one without it? Trust me, Nintendo filed patents for their next console long before this year. And their next console won't get leaked through a patent filing. You're basically saying that Nintendo will abandon more than half of its current userbase. A patent doesn't always translate to actual implementation, more often than not nothing is done with it. |
It doesn't have to be. The details of the patent make it clear that its their next-gen console.
It wouldn't make sense to have two versions, and if there was a version with a disc, it'd be found already.
It just did with this patent.
No, because more than half their current userbase will happily buy the all digital NX.
This is not one of those patents. The timing, detail, and content within the patent are too relevant.
I'm done with this.
