I'm probably too lazy to change my avatar if I'm wrong, so don't expect me to. But I'll make a prediction. I don't think the system is going to be as rumored, because rumors are always wrong. I think there is some smoke to them, but there will be unexpected twists. My expectations:

1. Rather than a portable you can plug to your TV, I think it will be a home console you can take with you. I.E., like the Wii U, but the "gamepad" will be able to play anywhere there is wifi with a form of remote play. To improve the play experience, the gamepad will be able to tap into any nearby NX that makes its resources available. Customers will be given incentives for making their system available.

2. The Gamepad will be a unique device that can function as a controller, a handhed, or as a tablet set on table. The side controllers will detach as rumored, and have various swappable input options. The tablet will have unique gameplay abilities, such as cameras, motion sensors and possibly a projector of some kind. It will have new types of experiences designed to play at a table, or using augmented reality.

3. In terms of chips and power, the Gamepad will use an nVidia X1 to handle its basic functions. However, the main processing power for games will be in the home console. This APU may or may not be a chip from AMD, but it will exceed the power of a vanilla PS4. I can be supplemented by a SCD, which won't be ready at launch.

4. NX will support carts and digital download. There will be no disc drive.

5. NX will absorb the Wii U platform, and will offer cross-play in the short-term. IE, you can play a game like Smash or Splatoon against Wii U owners if the title is ported to NX. Several titles will be ported.

I'm feeling very good about my initial predictions for the NX.  I'll amend further to say that the home console will use AMD, and the GPU power will be around 2.5 TFLOPs, making it easy to get things running on the system for the remainder of the generation.  The SCD could enable the system to match PS4Pro if need be and desired.  I'm less sold on the handheld using the Tegra at all actually, and may in fact use the new chip from 3DS chip makers DMP.

I belive strongly that the system is designed to appeal to both core gamers and more casual types.  On the core side, the system will have respectible power, dual-analogue style imput options and games inlcuding Zelda Breath and a new title from Retro.  I believe it also has one or two "core" exclusives from Ubisoft coming.

But it will also have a strong social gaming element, with AR abilities and possibly a projector-camera-sensor type system that will allow for the most elaborate "motion" type gaming yet.  Titles like Just Dance will be able to take their type of gaming to a new level.

Games will play different versions on the home console or on the hand held controller option, but it could be essentially the same game, gameplay-wise.  Some suggest this is a big deal, but I don't think it is at all.  Most devs are making versions of games for mobile when they can, and I believe Nintendo is working hard to make the "two-setting" option as seemless as possible.  It's also no different than the PS4/Pro set up, where all games must have versions for both settings.  Zelda: BOTW will demonstrate the "dual setting" settup well, with a version similar to Wii U on the go, but an enhanced graphics version at home.  This will demonstrate both that the HH is a capable system playing Wii-U level games, and that the HC offers an upgraded graphical experience.

Third parties are going to support it, at least to begin.

VR is an option.  It will expand on the streaming tech that sends signals to the HH/Gamepad.  Unlike most VR, Nintendo will emphasise a social experience inspired by the "asymetrical" gameplay of the Wii U, where one player could play on the TV and the other on VR.  The SCD could provide additional processing resources for VR if need be.

The price will be $400US, give or take, and include both the home console and handheld.  



I guess I was wrong....

It's probably a hybrid and a Tegra. Plus, I already have a crow-related avatar :)

I'll keep my avatar though.

On writing this, I discovered that it is actually really hard to predict what the NX will actually be. While you do have a lot of rumours pointing to a Hybrid or it having an Nvidia chip in it, Nintendo very often go left-field and do the exact opposite. It is because of that I'll take a gamble and say:

-Home Console
-AMD

Manufacturer: AMD ( Almost Certain About This )
Hardware: Home Console ( Not so sure but I need a new avatar anyways )

The NX is composed of 2 autonomous machines sold together


The home console NX will use either amd ARM Seattle, or amd x1150 or amd x2150 to which will be added a gpu amd probably a polaris 11


The portable NX will use ARM with graphic cores, but it is difficult to know which will provide this processor, it can be Nvidia like DMP, Samsung or qualcomm.
On the other hand, I think that one does not have to expect a monster of power, 200 GFLOPS to the maximum.


The home console NX will cost 200 dollars.
The portable NX will cost 150 dollars maximum.
The pad special 50 dollars…
Thus a system of consoles costing between 350 and 400 dollars…

Well done!!! Kudos 4 keeping your word, too bad NX ended up being a fugly tablet that looks like a Garmin GPS & nothing unique about it, just a small tablet with a dock... even cheap tablets do it better with a simple cable to hook it up to the TV...
