There is still hope with the NX if it becomes a very fashionable product like wii or typical Apple products. If the product comes to market visually pleasing and trendy then they can create a userbase from that. The wii was more than the sum of its parts and so perhaps maybe the NX.
I think we all know instinctively that the NX will be truly awful for multiformat ports and few will buy them if they do make them. Exclusive NX core games will have lowish sales because the userbase will be quite small with a low number of core gamers.
When I bought my wii u at first I tried to convince myself it was a capable system but reality hit home when even games like Call of Duty had worse frame rates than 360 and PS3 and missing detail too all at the same resolution. Add to injury using the gamepad was a real pain compared to 360 and ps3 and the final nail in the coffin was the huge load times due to lack of hard drive. It's going to be pretty much the same with NX compared to ps4 and xbone. Missing detail, horrible controller, inferior frame rates, lower resolution and probably slower load times due to high compression used to get games on small cartridges. You can only really justify buying Nintendo hardware normally for Nintendo games and I have a wii u already for Zelda U so don't need NX for that.
So this core gamer argument is unlikely due to hardware and userbase.
I think there is a possibility that Nintendo will cancel the NX altogether if the reveal shows general apathy towards it.
If its anything like the eurogamer info and doesn't have an amazing trick up its sleeve its probably dead on arrival. |
Here we have soundwave's alt account spreading BS about wii u/nintendo. Nothing new here.

I don't use alt accounts (unlike a certain someone AHEM ZERO, lmao), if I want to say something I'll say it, I don't care if it's a popular opinion or not. And cancelling the NX at this point? LOL, that's not gonna happen, Nintendo is too stubborn to do something like that even if the response to it is incredibly negative.
I don't think it's DOA either, I think it'll sell well enough, maybe not light the world on fire, but 40-50 million units should be doable (of course it could be a bit lower or considerably higher too if the stars align well for Nintendo).
