I've been a bit too negative lately, Typically I'm anti Nintendo BUT they have my attention with the NX rumors. I'm not so much interested in the NX as I am interested in what I want the thing to be. - 3rd party support with some Nintendo tie in with most 3rd party games. - Powerful - NO stupid gimmicks - A controller that doesn't suck. There hasn't been a good standard Nintendo controller since the SNES. - Region free - A launch line up that includes several long dormant Nintendo IPs - NO Censorship That's pretty much all I want from it. I like that it's supposedly using Carts. That's what I want from it. I have no idea what it's supposed to be or what it will be or what it'll be called. I just want good games and none of that Nintendo bullshit we've gotten from them since the Gamecube.
Wouldn't the use of carts limit the overall file size of the game? Even though it was the past all I keep thinking of is the N64 and how the use of carts held them back because the max that would fit on a cart was 64mb.
Not any more flash media has gotten pretty cheap and the load times will be faster than from an optical disc. It's possible games could be even larger than what a 4k Blu Ray can hold. INPUT....INPUT
Practical, with good online portal. What it really is: Impractical and outdated, with duplicated functions from far better and superior devices, with terrible online portal. Nintendo is simply in a death spiral and will eventually become Sega; unable to finance their own hardware and change over to software far too late.
Any kind of flash or ROM media has a cost-per-bit that several orders of magnitude larger than an optical disc. My own feeling is that if this system does use "cartridges" they are simply going to be tiny ROMs with a license on them and the actual game will be downloaded.
I just want it to come with a controller by default. No TV remote, no magic wand, no iPad. Just a thing that I can hold in my hands comfortably and that has buttons and a good analog stick and a good dpad. Then I buy the new Zelda and all is fine. But to be honest I kinda fear it to be a combination of the Virtual Boy with the Kinect camera controlled by Rockband guitars.
More games, less gimmicks I agree with TriMesh, i would think it would be possible like the Amiibo's, you get a token (could be a cart, figure etc.) and the game is downloaded to play. NO VR! - its the new Kinect and another crappy gimmick More Mario!
I want the NX to be good too, but you're expecting too much from the Nintendo we know. Especially the last bit. Nintendo of America would never release certain games without censorship.
I'm hearing the NX is going to be a beast https://mynintendonews.com/2015/10/...x-likely-more-powerful-than-ps4-and-xbox-one/ http://www.vg247.com/2016/06/20/cd-projekt-red-says-nx-will-be-fantastic/
Your second link: But lets be fair, the Xbox one and PS4 were pretty low end when they came out. The NX is coming out like 3 years after that.... you should think it would be more powerful
Well I think when he says new XBOX he means the PC they're releasing next year. http://www.techtimes.com/articles/1...amount-in-cpu-gpu-and-memory-more-details.htm Contradicting that is this http://www.gamepur.com/news/22792-i...-good-claims-more-powerful-ps4-incorrect.html UGH NIntendo will you just reveal the thing already?
Just have to wait and see. If its a portable that is as powerful as current gen consoles and has some sort of dock for home use - I would be into that. I stay away in hotels quite a lot for work, a handheld with console level graphics would be awesome.
That would be great. Seems to be what the rumors are suggesting. I am getting impateint. The Rumors are positive. I miss playing Nintendo games and I've been wanting to play a good Mario for a while.
