Wow everyone is gagging for the big Z. I highly doubt that Nintendo will finally give the first TRUE reveal trailer with actual gameplay at the TGA. Nintendo has always been there and has given little tidbits, but they never blow their load or show something huge there. I have my doubts that they will this year, but I could be surprised. Things might be different now that the Nintendo directs a little slower and hopefully Nintendo goes back to having real E3 press conferences on the worlds stage. This would give them more exposer and spot light since the Nintendo Direct is mostly viewed by their fans.

If Nintendo were to be smart I think that they should go with a bang at The Game Awards. They should announce the NX and show a concept trailer of the console. No games, no U.I.'s nothing software related or even giving any indication of the hardware itself. Simple show people ONLY the console design in fancy trailer like they did with the Game Cube. If it has a standard controller, show that too. I suggest they keep the secrets and what ever gimmicks they have until they are ready to fully reveal the system. Nintendo NEEDS to pre-generate hype for the NX and let the average gamer know about it's existence. You'd be surprised at how many people never even heard of the NX. Let the world know that you are cooking something awesome and give them but a taste on the tip of their tongues.

Face it. Every third party developer wants people know well in advance so there is knowledge of existence of a console they may release a launch title for. Games are expensive to make they want some insurance on their success. Plus the competition knows Nintendo is cooking something up. Just let the world know already.


Revealing their next system in the middle of the holidays, that's totally something Nintendo would not do if they were smart. No need to risk cannibalizing Wii U n 3DS sales during the most important time of the year when you can just wait a few months.
