Ohh right on then, so what's the name of Nintendo's next console?

And what's the marketing plan?

And the price?

And the controller?

And the launch lineup?

Yeah, I think we're done here. This is absolutely ridiculous how people can pretend they know Nintendo's exact plan when they literally nothing about the console has been announced at all. Nothing. Everything you're saying is purely speculation.

Of Course, we don't know anything for sure because nothing was confirmed at this point, but we have Nintendo plans and things Nintendo said will do with new platform and console, also we have recently Nintendo patents. So my opinion about NX is based on that.

Maybe you should go back and take a look at the patents Nintendo has made over the years and just how many of them wound up in their products. I'll give you a hint: It's a small fraction. To be fair it goes the same for Sony and Microsoft and any other major developer of technology. Ppatents have always been a very poor indicator of what products a company will release.

In terms of what Nintendo says the NX will actually do, we know next to nothing, just "the vision of the direction the company will move in". It's all marketing and corporate speak that has little to no relevance to the products a company actually produces. If you look at what Sony said of the PS3 before it was announced you'd swear it would replace every device under your television for the next 10 years. That turned out to be a stretch, but it kept investors interested.
