Isn't the system architecture what really matters when it comes to multiplats? If it's like the Wii U again you'll have a few token efforts in the first year that run worse than similarly-capable systems before it's ignored entirely.

If they made a 720p DS that could sling the top screen to a TV it would be pretty much perfect. But something like that would probably cost at least $300 at launch.

Remember that WiiU was supposed to be 13 times as powerful as PS3. See how it ended up?

Which means NX will be in between 7th and 8th gen computing power wise.

It's how easy it is to port which architecture is a big part of.
But if the NX is only as strong as the xbone then it won't matter, and it'll get no 3rd party support yet again.
Most devs use either PS4 or PC as lead platform and then port elsewhere and Xbox is already missing out on some stuff because its too weak which would require too much work and many of its multiplats run like shit.
The NX would have all the weakness issues the xbone has PLUS having no install base and devs having no familiarity with it. Devs won't even bother trying.

If game comes out on all 3(it's decided on pre production stage so power concerns aren't really there, it's more about "will <platform> audience buy the game or not") it's developed for DX(so Windows PC and Xbox) and then ported to PS4 using wrapper.

being as strong as the Xbone is good enough to get 95% of all the PSV/PS3/PS4 ports coming out of Japan, those games aren't exactly graphical and mechanical juggernauts

I doubt Nintendo cares/expects to get a drop of Western support they know EA and others still have it out for them for decades of playing hardball with them.

Nintendo wants Japan, they don't give a shit about the West.

They can make it as pretty as they want but 300$+ machines will not sell on the back of marios. Nintendo's time in the console space is completely done. Success in the modern industry steamrolls into easier success, whereas failure makes it almost impossible to take back what you lost. Therell still be nintendo games on dses but nintendo consoles are getting ready to end. even nintendo knows it of this "the console is actually a handheld" shit is true.

Then Nintendo will go out of business.
Japan literally doesn't matter anymore, both America and Europe each outsell Japan several times over.
The reason the PS4 is successful is because Sony realized this and focused everything on getting the western markets.

If it also has a tablet control, in addition to Xbone graphical quality, then the system would be like $800 and never sell.

It's tablet controller again or decent graphics. Can't be both.

The reason the Wii U failed is because they waited fucking 6 years to release a system with the specs of a console form 2008 and the PS4 and the Xbox One were coming a year later.

With this, if they were to release a system with Xbone specs, it would be just enough to get 3rd party support and it would be equal to the consoles around it.

It really all depends on adoption rates of 4K TV's since we all know that'll be the big selling point behind 9th gen consoles.

Yeah its not like they made minecraft for wii u or anything right?

dumb fuck
>>
>>321315315
Was minecraft for the Wii U released in Summer of 2014 and did it have a big focus on the Gamepad?
You idiot.
>>
The NX is going to flop for several reasons:
1. The timing of its release. It's one of those awkward between-gens consoles, so Sony and Microsoft will simply release more powerful consoles, as well as predictably doing a pricecut on their PS4 and Xbox One consoles; making them more attractive options than the NX.
2. No games. Nobody will want to develop for an awkward between-gens console. Instead, they will hold out for the next Sony and Microsoft console.
3. Nobody bought the Wii U, even though it had tons of great games. That shows Nintendo that nobody buys consoles for games anymore, but rather, they buy them for Netflix and to watch youtube videos like on their little "smart phones" and "ipads". So they're alienating the few people who actually buy video game consoles to play video games. Which leads me into my next point.
4. It will have no advantages over the competition. A console needs to have SOME sort of advantage over the competition, whether it's cheaper, it has more and better games, it has better graphics, it has an interesting gimmick, etc. The NX will have none of these, so a few stupid people will buy it then the sales will fizzle out. And look at the rumored gimmicks that have been floating around. Cloud processing? Seriously? Like that's gonna get people to buy it? Upgradable console? Terrible idea, hasn't been done since the N64 and it's not like Sony and Microsoft won't have some way of countering it. Fusing home consoles and handhelds? Again a terrible idea.
5. There's simply nothing to set it apart from the Wii U. They're not doing anything to make sure that this console will be better than the Wii U, so I don't know why they think it will sell better.

My prediction is that the NX will sell about as well as the Wii U, give or take a bit, and then Nintendo's next console will have good games and will sell well. But if they keep this shit up of making several failed consoles before making a good one they're eventually gonna wind up on Steam.

They didn't try at all. They half assed the appeal to the west and it flopped like a flaccid cock.

You can't appeal to another demographic that has shown interest in you, by removing/altering everything that piqued their interest in the first place, and then expect to succeed.

The rumor claims that Minecraft on the Wii U would be released in the Summer of 2014 and would focus on the gamepad

1. in that same article, notch dispelled the rumor
2. Yes, minecraft is coming to the WIi U, 2 years after this rumor was published
3. The Wii U gamepad isn't even used with Minecraft on the Wii U.
>>
>>321310262

The WiiU is amazing compared to the Wii, for Nintendo. Nintendo has always designed it's harwdare with focus on it's own developer strategy first, with third party secondarily. According to Japanese law, the 360 and PS3 are super computers aka high performance compute grade hardware that's normally used for research in petroleum, atmospherics, protein folding research, and other areas where HPC is critical. The WiiU is about 1/3rd the theoretical capacity of a super computer. To Nintendo that's an insane amount of power.

So, even if the NX is say 90% the capacity of a XB1 in terms of performance, Nintendo has therefore crossed the HPC barrier with their machine and would not spend a dollar more.

On a final note, Nintendo is a stern believer in the philosophy that computational performance is irrelevant to gameplay and game design. If they could get away with it, they would keep releasing the WiiU over and over again with minor increments here and there, as the performance ceiling of the WiiU--at least to Nintendo, hasn't been reached yet, and likely will take another decade to optimize down to the last hertz.

tl;dr they don't give a fuck, but are being forced to adapt or die--and they're going to kick and scream all the way by releasing hardware that barely cusps the minimum baseline and call it a day.

How come people are getting mad about others discussing video game rumors on a video game board?
>>
>>321316565
It's pretty much a fake. If it wasn't for the shitty intentional e3, people would love the Xbone more. PS4 has no games, Wii U has few games, though the few games it has are great. The Xbox One has a slew of great games and even more games coming in the future.

>The Xbox One has a slew of great games and even more games coming in the future
Why are you blatantly lying? Am I being baited?
>>
>>321316351
Why? If it's stronger than PS4/Xbone, it's going to get half-assed ports that don't take advantage of the extra power, plus it will be eclipsed by the next round of consoles in a couple years. Then again, making it on-par with current consoles is also stupid because it means they're two years behind in terms of the library, and when the next real consoles get released, it'll be left behind, only to receive the same shitty versions of the new games that the PS4 and Xbone will get.

The best thing for Nintendo to do is wait till Sony and MS announce their new hardware in 2 or 3 years. If they're going to try to compete, they need to get back in on a level playing field.
>>
>>321315428

What a fuckin Jip.

You know we see all these threads about what they have to do to make the NX succeed, a lot of people seem to forget one big problem it will face. Wary consumers. I know I do not intend to buy one, not after how terrible the Wii-U was overall. I tend to buy every console over time but this generation seems to be the exception. I skipped the xbone because of how anti consumer they were at first, and i will not be picking up the NX because i simply do not trust nintendo anymore. Not after the abysmal life of the Wii-U and the 326 variations and re-releases of the fucking 3DS.

Yeah no, fuck off Nintendo.

Nintendo should just pretend the wii u was never a thing and release a 3ds successor that is actually powerful isn't of trying to sell hardware that costs 5 dollars to assemble and selling it at 200 dollars. Then they wait this gen out and release at the same time as the other ones with an actually modern system. If they release something in the middle of a gen, they are dead in the water, specially since their major problem is rebuilding all the relationships they have burned throughout the years. They basically need to do a full restructure. The company is trying to appeal to the whole world while being closed and allienated as all fuck. They aren't gonna pull it off though because they are stubborn and run by fossils, so they are just gonna fade into obscurity like they have been doing since the ps1 took their crown.

Nintendo is literally the apple of videogames, except it doesn't have a large following anymore. But the fans sure do look like your average apple drone that will defend anything they shit out. At least apple's shit actually look good, unlike nintendo's.

To be honest, it's been a while since there have been console rumours that turned out to not have a large amount of truth to them when the console's revealed.

>>
The fault of the Wii U was the tablet controller. Because iPads and other tablets were already being bought by the public, and Nintendo tried to make it as revolutionary as the Wii's motion controls. The NX's specs do not really matter because Nintendo never strives to make the most resource intensive games they can.

What really matters is if they use a dumb gimmick that no one wants to develop on. If they have the Pro Controller as the basic controller and not have the word "Wii" in the title it will at least do better than the Wii U.

Just compare the price they charge for it for those of smartphones. While sony and microsoft for example were selling their hardware at a loss, nintendo comes up with some outdated trash and sells it for many times what it's actually worth.

Except that's not true.
Also, way to point out how you have no idea how manufacturing works. The original 3DS cost 101 dollars in parts and was sold for 250 dollars.

That's no different than how most electronics are manufactured. For instants, it cost 188 dollars for all the parts in the Iphone 4s and they chaged 1000 dollars for it unlocked.

Manufacturing, shipping, labor and a whole how of factors cost the price of electronics to increase.

The Wiiu failed because Nintendo broke their standard tennants of releasing a console, affordablity, decent launch support, and marketing fun experiences.

They had a shitty launch set up, it was too god damned expensive, and the name implied it was an accessory to the Wii. I personally blame the latter as the most damaging, normies just couldn't grasp it. Fucking hell I even thought it was an Wii accessory watching the E3 presentation.

They're ditching it because they've done everything the japs can come up with it at this point. They've maxed out it's popularity so they're dropping the last few games to try again. It's been 4-6 year long cycle, depending on when the nx drops. It's not unreasonable to move on.

I feel like we wouldn't lose much if they go away, their best studios are 2nd parties that can easily move to a new publisher like Retro and Hal

Literally all they need to do is make it as powerful as the ps4 and xbone, integrate netflix, youtube and twitch, support 1080p at 40+ frames, have an online marketplace of wii, Wii u, GameCube, 3ds games that allow you to use wiimote/3ds as a handheld controller, but force none of it on players. Give it a slightly sleeker GameCube controller with a ps4 share button equivalent, and give their online market place steam-like sales and accessibility for indie game designers, most of whom use Nintendos ideas to make their games anyway, then it would become a social platform, indie hotspot, and still used to watch YouTube and netflix. Yeah that's a long list but nothing on there is hard fir everyone else to do. It's a shame Nintendo is to old fashioned, xenophobic and anti-streamer to make this fucking obvious step
