This guy is trying to get verified(even if he does get verified though I wont be making a thread since the last one was basically pointless):
"I'm a Game Developer working in a mid-sized Dev Team working on an PC indie game port in Europe.
I am willing to provide confirmation / specific details to mods.
There has been a lot of false leaks regarding NX, all i can confirm at this point is that it's not a handheld. It is a console and it will be announced late April and will be released around Holiday 2016.
At least 1 Nintendo Game launching this year will use Unreal Engine 4, our game is also using the Unreal Engine 4 engine.
If you want confirmation regarding UE4, research some of the upcoming games Nintendo Projects on linkedin, lot of Nintendo game devs have listed UE4 for unannounced upcoming games (Wii U and 3DS don't have any UE4 projects being developed by Nintendo studies at the moment).
There is a genuine dev on Reddit who can't give you the name of the console at this moment and more specific details, our team can (which is less known and has less known games).
The final and last thing i can say is that the power leaks from SuperMetalDave are true, is using ARM Architecture and a is Console more powerful than the XBO/PS4.
Don't worry too much, and one last secret: The name is 'Nintendo Extra'
To the mods: Please contact me through my email address if you want further/more specific details.
Update 1:
I haven't received a message from the mods, but in the meanwhile: to clear one thing up, some genuine leakers have said ARM, some have said x86, the NX is using both but one for the home console and one for the upcoming handheld. In essence, the ARM architecture is a small piece of the overall NX home console and specifically done to port handheld games to the Home console, not the other way around. Devs are not forced to create games for it.
Name: NEX (Nintendo Extra) Platform: Home console
NEX CPU is about 30% more powerful than XBO/PS4 NEX GPU is 50% more than powerful XBO/PS4, also more RAM.
The leaks about the 2 different controllers are indeed true. In general, this is a very good console and a new time for Nintendo to gain back support of third-party devs and core gamers in general.
Update 2: In contact with a Reddit mod for verification in the next 24 hours."

Bolded are the more interesting bits.
If that April Direct is true we should roll out that bingo rumour card

That matches the rumour in this the linked thread below from GAF, in regards to the CPU. NEX also sounds like a plausible name and is certainly marketable.
