YES! SO GLAD TO HEAR THAT. So you guys can quit claiming 2016 release. The NX isn't something that should be rushed out so early, especially with the patents it might be utilizing. A late 2017/mid 2018 release is much more like it. By then, Sony and MS will be talking about their next consoles. Can Wii U survive that long? Maybe. It depends on what they have in store software wise. It's just too early for a 2016 release. |
Like I said, it could just be him letting us know a 2016 release doesn't mean it's being rushed.

Maybe, but a reveal after a release would be quite foolhardy imo. All of these Nintendo 2nd parties, and 1st parties that are silent as hell are most likely working on NX titles. Games like Mario 3D (Galaxy 3) would most likely not release this year. Nintendo has to spend time understanding their new hardware to the fullest, as they barely understood HD gaming and robust online systems at Wii U's launch. At best, we'll get NX tech demos, teasers, and a hardware reveal. Next year, the actual release and games. Doing everything in one year would indeed be rushing.

It would not be rushing, PS4 was officially revealed in Feb 2013 and released in Nov 2013, XB1 was officially revealed in May 2013 and released in Nov 2013, neither of these were rushed.

And gimmick free too. NX is something totally, different. Wii U was totally different from PS4 and Xone but it was unveiled in 2012 and released in 2013. There's no concrete chonology of course, but it just seems wiser on Nintendo's part because we know this could be ANYTHING. Not simply a souped up console like PS3>>PS4. They need time to flesh this thing out. No, a console shouldn't need an insane amount of time for the audience to understand, but with NX...I'm actually scared about what they're doing concept wise. I would rather ease into it.
