Forums - Nintendo - UPDATE - Nintendo Begins Distributing Software Kit for New NX Platform

I'm liking the idea of a console and a handheld, along with just tweaking stuff to make the game fly on the handheld. This could be huge for Nintendo. I guess my only question will be what will they do with the handheld. This is the wild card. Maybe they could make it handle phone calls too. I think that would be huge.

People already have phones.



So, does anyone remember the original Fusion rumor? Is it somewhat releated to this?



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


The Fusion rumor was more about HW characteristics then how they would be integrated, i believe.

Only problem with all of this is, SE, Ubisoft, EA, Konami, Capcom and Activision all have not received any SDK for NX what so ever, still waiting on feedback from Atlus, Tecmo, XSEED and Sega but I'm not holding my breath at any of them having received the supposed SDK's either.

And these companies would tell you such confidential information so you could post it on vgchartz. Right...

 

Rumors, self-esteem, hilarious assumptions and speculations are strong in this thread :)

That's what some of the nintendo fanbase have been doing throughout the thread but I guess you didn't read much of anything otherwise you wouldn't have posted any of that. Tachi works in the gaming business and she's able to confirm what is what.

Does trying to insult me make you feel better about your illogical brand attachment?

SE have had devkits for the ps2, ps3 and ps4 before each console was officially announced, on non-final devkits that would later be replaced with newer kits as the launch drew closer.

 

Major third parties not receiving devkits at this supposed point of the development cycle is NOT the norm, major third parties, especially japan based third parties receive their devkits more or less in tandem with first party studios, in the past MS, Sony, Sega and Nintendo have always had not only enough to go around but spares on standby incase of technical issues so that turnaround on replacing defective hardware does not impact projected release schedules, its beneficial to the manufacturer to do this because doing so reduces the chance of a sparse launch lineup.

 

If the rumor were true and first parties had received theirs already, but third parties had not. It would be the first time in history that major Japanese third parties got left in the cold on it.


But the NX hasn't been officially announced either and we don't know when its comming out.

Edit : You actually used the word "supposed"  there. Missed it. Sorry.

Yes, obviously, and that is exactly what I wrote. The thread has been amusing anyway.



ITT; People who are going to buy the NX regardless of how much it costs, its features or its library. Hardcore Nintendo fans are indeed hardcore. Their numbers do keep getting smaller and smaller and smaller with every generation. I hope none of you folks are expecting third party support if this NX actually has two + form factors that must be developed for.
