Saying a direct would be announced "in the next few days" is way too vague to be considered convincing if such a direct is announced. It's too generic, and mostly fairly predictable for anyone with no foreknowledge. Nintendo has a history of having a single teaser of some sort prior to the E3 when they reveal their new system. There's also need for a direct to cover some new Pokemon information prior to its reveal in CoroCoro (because it's unlikely that the first information reveal for Sun/Moon will be CoroCoro exclusive). They need to talk about the new features of My Nintendo and Miitomo, as well as talk about Star Fox Zero/Guard, Lost Reavers, and TMS#FE. And there's undoubtedly at least one more new title they want to announce soon. So a new Direct announced in the next few days isn't exactly a particularly bold prediction. I'd suggest that it's maybe a 40% chance of it happening within the next, say, 5 days. There are too many questionable things in the claim, including the part where the guy claims to be a dev in a third party, perhaps even indie, studio, yet somehow knows internal Nintendo information like when they plan to announce a Direct or what engines are being used by Nintendo internally, not to mention the name of the console. There's also no chance that they would know how much memory is being allocated to the OS itself, since it's not relevant to external developers - what matters to them is the memory allocation for games. |
Actually I don't think Nintendo needs Direct for games and I dont thik we will have any Direct before E3 for games, we already had one last month and Nintendo clearly has much less often Directs than before. Pokemon Sun/Moon will be definitely be at E3, Star Fox Zero/Guard doesnt need direct because Nintendo already started releasing tons of infos, videos and screenshots. TMS#FE is not big game and its already out in Japan, Lost Reavers is free to play game and small project, so definitely they dont need Direct to be discussed about.
Maybe we could have some kind specifik Direct NX related only, but IMO there is no chance Nintendo will discuss about NX and about WiiU/3DS games in same direct.
I think its fake mainly because of name of console, Nintendo is always very secretive about final name of console, even for Wii U that was far less secretive than NX developers were saying when they are worked on games for it they had just Project Cafe name.
About NX Direct in april, we already had several reports and rumours that saying that Nintendo will unveil NX in April, even Nintendo itself said they will talk about NX at next Investertor meeting that will be held 27/28 April. So it's very likely we will have some oficial NX news this month through some kind of Direct or through some other way.

If these things are true (12 GB of RAM, more powerful CPU, 50% better GPU, and a HD screen controller), I see a $399 console. And DDR3 RAM? Not GDDR5? That's going to be a bottleneck for future games. |
Has Nintendo acknowledged the original price of the Wii U as expensive? Also 30-50% increase in power does not sound like a lot to worry about price. In some areas that is the difference between the X1 versus PS4 if I'm not mistaken (Gpu).
For once Nintendo really should stick with the code name. NX can stand for whatever but keep that as the shorthand name for the console.
Well all know the truth in a matter if weeks. Too exciting!

Yes, they said Wii U ended having higher price than they wanted, remember Wii U is first Nintendo console they sold with loss at launch. Also when Wii U launched has similar power and capabilities like PS3/Xbox 360 but with $100 higher price point, that is definitely one of reasons why Wii U failed.
I dont think NX will have price point above $299.

For once? They stuck with the code name before with the Nintendo DS.
I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.
Definitely seems fake to me.
NX won't be called "Nintendo Extra" what a terrible name.
NX will not have 12gb of ram.
NX GPU will not be 50% more powerful than ps4. (I like how they said it'd be 50% more powerful than ps4/xbo... there's quite a big difference between ps4 and xbo gpu power so which is it?)
Definitely fake..

I see. Will be a struggle for them to include the rumoured formless touch screen controller and match the Current gen systems in power,whilst making a profit at $300

Well there is rumor that there will be two kind of controllers, regular like Wii U Pro and basically smaller Wii U gamepad, so it there could be two different bundles with 2 different price tags, for instance regular for $299 and more expensive for $349.
