You guys need to give it up with a "pocket" thing. This is not designed to go into your pocket. If you want that, that's what a 3DS is for, which Nintendo is supporting until 2018.

This is a tablet sized device and it has to be tablet sized.

A Tegra X1 would melt the inside of a 3DS in two hours or kill the battery in the same time, which ever comes first. This system was always going to be in the same ball park size wise as the Wii U tablet.

Modern thermals demand it, it's a simple as that. The chip needs room to dissipate heat, also if you want battery life longer than 90 minutes, you need a very large battery here, 8000 MaH probably minimum, 10,000 MaH more likely. The battery alone could be the size of a 3DS XL. 

 

You need to give up talking as if you know anymore about what the NX than anyone else. Plus as the very rumors you're believing in just said, the NX would be the same size as a 3DS XL (when closed) only wider, so the possibility of it fitting in ones pocket is still very much real.

its supposedly over 10 inches wide.......i dont think many people can fit that in their pocket
