I say this because when the console is released it will be doing so against 2 very established rivals with large libraries of games and the NX will need to have not only high quality launch games but a quantity of titles. It takes time for 3rd parties to develop quality games people! They simply won't have had enough time to support the NX in the first 6-12 months of the consoles life if it releases this year. If the NX comes out and suffers early the mistakes of the Wii U will be repeated and all those Nintendo doom threads might actually be right for once. Make no mistake, Nintendo has so very very much riding on the NX they need it to make a huge splash. The price we have to pay for this is the one we are currently paying - a extremely baron 2016 release schedule and no solid information about NX. I honestly doubt if you'll hear anything at all about it until E3 and while this may be pissing you off now rest assured this is a good thing. Games these days take longer than ever to develop and people are getting more and more impatient. Good things come to those who wait. Nintendo wouldn't have wanted to be having to release NX so quickly when the Wii U was released and have always released their next console 5-6 years from the last one and this will be no different. |
After Wii U I dont think Nintendo will release another console that they didn't prepare solid and without great launch and 1st year lineup.
Nintendo basically hinting new platform and NX from January 2013. and we didnt had not one Wii U big announcement that isn't small project, spinoff of port from E3 2014. That means they are focused on NX for quite time now.So if they really releasing NX this year (all point they doing that), they probably prepared ti good for 2016. launch.
