On the subject of NX news, they just mentioned the NX a little bit as I type this, nothing important yet though. What I wanted to say is I think the fact that Nintendo said they will be using cloud based services for data sharing between devices tells me that there really may be a discless system in the works and they are going all digital this gen. It makes a lot of sense, and I am excited to see what the actual plans are, I wish they would unveil more!

Going all online is an effective way to dig your own grave... So I don't that'll happen. But if it's combining handhelds and home consoles, cartrige seem plausible medium.
Then again, online distribution (direct to customer) is the complete opposite to blockbuster model, where you sell huge amounts of games to a small number of distributors, which makes sure that the big publishers stay away from NX (which would be good thing from my point of view).
