The fine print says it's a Nintendo trademark. NX is the final name, or are they trademarking a code name? https://t.co/iPnQbcKoU3

I dunno, I think we're so used to calling it the NX that, at least for people that are informed of what's happening in the gaming industry, they wouldn't have the problem they had for the Wii U where people didn't know what it was if an add-on or a new console so, given that Nintendo aknoledged that making shure people know what NX is before launch is a key focus for them this would work... Also I really like NX as a name, it's short, it sounds good and it's easy to remember

No, it's not. I'm not surprised they trademarked the placeholder name.

I'd like to know why only 3 games are announced for the thing. Previously I was convinced it was because Ninty was being secretive, but with some companies announcing some games, I'm now losing out hope that it'd have decent support :S

I don't think it should be. NX is kinda generic.

I wouldn't mind if it was, but what I'm interested in is if this means the NX will be on par with PS4/XB1.

I don't know, it could be possible and I would be ok with it. I don't care too much about the name to be perfectly honest.

I think it's because all the games that were announced for it don't show what the console is capable of: DQ XI has a 3DS version and, while unlikely, the NX port might be from 3DS, not from PS4, Just Dance can run on Wii, so it doesn't really prove nothing about the specs, and finally Sonic has only a CGI trailer, also I'm positive that this games beeing made from three of the biggest third parties out there is also why they were given the opportunity to make such an announcement

One can only hope, the name is perfect and sheds Nintendo's dated image

You think official project names cannot be trademarked, especially if they market with that name?
