Forums - Nintendo Discussion - To those who say NX isn't coming this year

Ljink96 on 29 January 2016

How about this, NX is coming this year but it isn't coming either. Many reports say that the handheld unit is coming this year and the console unit is coming next year. So in a way...everybody is wrong (^.^*)

In would take my copy of Kung Fu Panda 3 for Wii U I bought today and smash it!

Off topic but do you have like every wii u game ever released? XD

OT: I would be pretty suprised, I'm most likely not gonna be able to get it day one but it'd be impossible if it was this year pretty much

What's your point again exactly? Lol.

That there are hints the NX may come out in 2016 (home console wise, I actually think the handheld will launch this year)? Sure, but I don't think it will. 

And if my evidence and reasoning make sense, it would seem there's more behind my reasoning than my "There is no way the NX is coming this year because it's an iron-clad law a console generation has to  be at least five years" mantra (which strangely enough is a mantra that doesn't even exist).

 

"Making someone sound like a rabid madman when that person hasn't made any personal attacks against you or shown any sign of losing control; this is essentially putting them down and/or flaming."

That was the point. The discussion was very civil, respectful and fascinating up until that point.

Then there are ways of letting him know than going off into your own disrespectful reply. In doing that you're only adding to the problem.

Sounds like you're a lot more offended and butthurt over that last paragraph in my reply than I ever was. All I did was say that Soundwave is provididing sources  and official quotes for his reasoning, while you are not. You said I'm not contributing anything to the debate, so here is  my contribution:

http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2016/01/ihs_technology_adds_to_speculation_of_an_nx_portable_release_in_2016

Meanwhile, I'm still waiting for you to show me something to believe the NX isn't coming in 2016 beyond "There is no way the NX is coming this year because it's an iron-clad law a console generation has to  be at least five years." If you can't or won't do that, then could you kindly get over my first post already? It's been like, three days and five posts. Let it go.

How about this as a little hint:

http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/01/29/only-5-of-developers-working-on-a-wii-u-game-survey-says

"Just 5 percent of developers surveyed are working on Wii U titles, with 3 percent bringing a game to the Nintendo 3DS. The Nintendo NX fairs even worse, with less than 1 percent of respondents working on a game for the unannounced platform."

When the Wii U is still getting the most support from developers, I don't think it's going anywhere. Meanwhile NX only polled in at 1% of developers working for anything on it. Yet again, sign enough to show it isn't going to come out this year except for maybe handheld.

And again, please keep your replies respectful.

That survey would mean a lot more if we had more facts behind it. How many developers were polled? How many of them actually have dev kits? Do we know what country they are from? How many of those developers are under NDAs and can't say they are working on NX software?

Far too many things we don't know about the survey to take it seriously.

"And again, please keep your replies respectful."

Likewise.

I specifically asked if u were talking about 1st party or 3rd party and u never gave an answer.

When in the last 30 years has a console released with 8, 1st party games? There hasn't been one because it is unwise to release that many 1st party games at once. It makes infinitely more sense to elease 2 on launch day in November with 1-2 more in December then spread out about a dozen or so throughout the following year.

 


Without 3rd party support, just four 1st party games is horrible in a launch year or any year. If nintendo does that with NX.... As I mentioned earlier, NX needs to get consumers' interest. 

So why are you now flip flopping and saying they won't have any 3rd party games? And we're not talking about launch year (first 12 months), we're talking about launch window (first 1-2 months) in which case four, 1st party titles is more than enough.

 

"Without 3rd party support, just four 1st party games is horrible in a launch year or any year" Could you point out where I said they won't have any 3rd party games? A year is 12 monhs but I guess i should have said I was talking about a full year and not just a few months. 

 

"The main difference between launching this november and next year's november will be in the amount of games NX will have to launch with"

That is the original post that I quoted from you, the word YEAR never once appeared, u literally just said launch.

"WITHOUT 3RD PARTY SUPPORT, just four 1st party games is horrible" right there is where you said no 3rd party support.

You're obviously having trouble with understanding my posts. Reread my posts. I'm getting tired of explaining myself.

I did mention "year" in that post and I've been talking about years ever since that post. 

 

I didn't say anything close to "NX will not have 3rd party support." 

"Without 3rd party support, just four 1st party games is horrible in a launch year or any year"

Another way I could word that and still mean the same thing is this, "If nintendo doesn't have 3rd party support, just four 1st party games is horrible in a launch year or any year".

You severely misunderstand me on that.

 

I understand what you're saying, the problem is what you're saying doesn't match what you're trying to say.

You're not at all. Just this " If nintendo doesn't have 3rd party support, just four 1st party games is horrible in a launch year or any year".   by itself is proof enough. It's like trying to explain what flying is like to a turtle.

My reading comprehension is fine, the problem is your lack of being able to express what you're trying to say. Even Rol agreed that the confusion is caused on your end, not mine.

Like I said previously, the original post I quoted never said launch year, it simply said launch hence why I started talking about day 1 titles, halfway through the conversation you started to say launch year. That can mean 1 of 2 things, either you failed to express what you meant from the beginning or you changed goalposts midway through the conversation. In either case, the blame falls on you.

Without reading comprehension, you will have a more difficult time understanding the written word. 

Based off of what I just wrote, am I saying that you have no reading comprehension? Yes or no?

Being Namco Bandai was polled I'd say that japanese development companies were there, as well as if Namco Bandai wasn't restricted by a NDA why would any other developer? 

Also, what have I posted that you find disrespectful?
