To the OP: The NX can use not only x86, but also ARM. I'd prefer the former (to make cross-platform development easier), but given that we don't know what Nintendo is trying to do with it, ARM could be the better suited tech for their plan.
OT: Ever since the NX version of Zelda was announced, I took granted that NX won't have BC.
Please excuse my bad English.
