Today is the last day of February, two months of 2016 have passed and we haven't heard ANYTHING about NX. No teasers, no PR talk etc.

I don't know how Nintendo wants to launch a new system this year without promotion long before. They need to promote their new systems, they don't have many consumers left, otherwise it will flop totally.

So, in my opinion it's safe to say that Nintendo won't launch new hardware this year, at least definitely no new home console.

Uh .. ? 

 

PS4: First own Media Briefing in February, Console shown later at E3, released in November of the same Year.

XB1: May first Media Briefing, announcing and showing new Console, 2 (or 3) weeks later E3. Launched in the same year.

 

ANYTHING is still possible.

PS4/Xbox One: successors to highly successful consoles. Getting people buying it easy and you don't need much time to promote it.

NX: successor to a flop. Getting people buying this system after you only have 12 million customers left and you launch it Mid-Gen is difficult. Promotion over a long period of time is neccessary.

See the difference?
