From that statement he said if there was going to be a new Mario they'd want it to be something new. He didn't say there was one in the works.
>>342577421
>catridges and memory cards
This has NOT been confirmed, don't be retarded. Patents often don't lead to anything and taking this as anything other than rumor is going to leave people confused at the actual unveiling. Cartridges could mean anything from SD cards to fucking N64 carts.
>>342577625

>>342577421

When was this confirmed?
>>342577421

That is a BAD THING. A very, very BAD THING.
They're going for the mobile and old folk audience again which means actual fans outside of Japan will be fucked. Again.

it was listed under a patent for Zelda BOTW. Doesn't necessarily mean anything, but the only way to know for sure is that reveal.

This is pure delusion. Nintendo doesn't have good launch lineups, even though they sorely need to. Those fools will think Zelda is enough to sustain the console for 6 months.

It's Mario. It's always in development.

Shiggy said they might have something to show at next year's E3 so it's safe to assume they're already working on it.

>>342579728
>it was listed under a patent for Zelda BOTW.
As I remember, that patent provided a generic list of video games media, also including discs and memory cards. That doesn't mean anything.
>>342580338
It is already near finished according to shiggy, and if it isn't on the Wii u, it will be on the NX
Also safe to assume that Mario would be a launch title
>>342581279
The thing is that no other Wii U games have memory cards/catridges under trademarks

>>342577421

>>catridges and memory cards
that thread went full retard immediately.
I won't buy a NX unless they follow these rules:
Make the console powerful, even though if I cared about power, I'd better build a PC.
No gimmicks whatsoever, make a plain and simple console, basically I want a PS4 or Xbone copypaste but with the Nintendo logo slapped on it.
The console must be innovative though, no gimmicks but I want something fresh and unique like VR.
Bring back the third parties, even though I won't buy their games in the end because I love complaining about how AAA games are shit and ports are inferior for my tastes. I buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games anyway.
I'm sick of rehashes. Give me new IPs, no matter Nintendo makes plenty of them each gen but, if their aren't big budget and successfull, they don't count and I don't like them anyway.
Stop experimenting new shit with Mario and Zelda, give me a good old rehash of my nostalgia defining games like Mario 64 or Ocarina of Time. Bring back all the niche series nobody but me care about, Nintendo MUST cater only to my special and refined tastes.
The console must also have at least ten 10/10 games at launch, certified by Metacritic, I don't want to buy a console with nogaems at day one.
And then, finally, I'll buy your console. Not at launch. On a sale. With a game or two included. Only if it is successful and it wins Media Creates threads, I hate buying unsuccessful consoles.
>>342577421
How would memory cards even work with cartridges? Would the memory cards handle dlc or digitally downloaded games? I don't even know what to make of this.
>buy NX game
>it comes in a cartridge
>put cartridge into NX portable
>play SD version of game on the go
>put cartridge into NX home
>NX downloads and installs patch to make the game HD and improve performance
>keep playing right where you left off
YOU WILL UNDERSTAND
>>342582267
Tasty pasta.
>>342579651
With any hope, that could just be a thing Nintendo told third parties to get them back on board. Ubisoft in particular loved the Wii because they love casual shit.
>>342582435
Very tasty.
>>342577421
>Let's have a good ole rumor mill
Nah, I will just wait until it actually gets revealed.
>>342582267
>something fresh and unique like VR
Where have you been the last few decades?
VR was already tried and failed a few times, it's only now starting to become something for the mainstream.
>>342577421
Can't have a NX thread without this. I should update it though.

>>342582737
>Wanting Nintendo to just be a copy/pasta of the XBONE/PS4
disgusting.
>>342579651
As much as the Wii and DS were despised for being casual consoles with lots of shovelware, in the end they have a solid library of good games and hidden gems.
If getting back the Wii audience means we can have stuff like both Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes, Metroid Prime 3, Xenoblade, Tatsunoko vs Capcom, Disaster Day of Crisis and so in, then I'm ok with this.
Plus third parties will be pleased enough. The Wii got all mainline CoD games for instance, despite being weak.
>>342583079
This is always the defense of gimmicks but would that really be so damn bad? Does it have to have some stupid ass controller or whatever for it to be okay?
I'd rather Nintendo work on catching up with the others than staying behind and rolling out another gimmick that no one cares about and winds up going underutilized anyway.
I'm in marketing. This thread is pretty slow so no one will see this so count yourself lucky.
>Will be called the Nintendo Next
>Naming convention encapsulates the "transformation" of Nintendo's use of the word "New"
>Designed for strong and clear market messages (as opposed to WiiU): "The Next Nintendo Console", "The Next in the Mario Series", "The Next leap in gameplay" etc. etc.

>This symoblises Nintendo's desire to "recreate" the SNES
>The typography of the logo is very sleek and slim, very Apple/Smart Phone inspired
>Nintendo have strong partnerships lined up with Japanese third parties such as Square, Bandai Namco, Capcom as opposed to their American third party push with the Wii U (which failed), they are still pursuing strong Western support though
>Zelda BoTW launch title, only difference is 1080p (still 30fps).
>FF7 remake, KH3 and new Dragonquest will be on the Next

Dont you mean higher res textures?
Then again space isn't exactly expensive nowadays, regardless of medium.
I just hope if the cartridge thing is true, they go with something better than SD card tech. DOn't wanna wait forever for a game to load
>>342583428
I'll give you a 7/10, you kept it too safe but that helped you sound somewhat more credible.
Still, you fucked up some obvious things.
>>342577421
I do hope that its cartridge based
nicer to display a cartridge/its box than a disc's
>>342583627
>Dont you mean higher res textures?
That and also better models, lighting systems, shaders, all that shit.I admit I don't really know what makes a videogame though
>>342582707

So what role do you guys reckon amiibos will play on the NX? Same shit or will they actually serve for something bigger?
Only thing I can think of off the top of my head is something like linking an amiibo to your account so you can lug it around and quickly log in on other consoles or at stores/events to get bonuses
>>342582267
Wow, you're really boring.
The NX will have the core-gaming designs but with a bit of Nintendo flare.
>>342582267
Wow, you literally are a mirrored image of me. Like, your taste is so shit compared to what I like it's not even funny.
The Wii was a great console that had a ton of games that were great.
The Wii U isn't shit because of a tablet controller or underpowered. It's shit because it has no games.
I'm enjoying emulating wii games I missed and playing old ones.
I have money on my Wii U with jack shit to play. PS4 has a pretty shit library right now but at least it's going to get some games. Wii U is done with one more game. That is why it's shit. It's not a GC or a Wii, it's just a no games piece of shit.
>>342583750
Me too.
Can't get all scratched up, much shorter, or no load times at all.
>>342583332
Or maybe they are just stating that it would be popular with families. Which is nothing new as it was always Nintendo's goal

Which version do you prefer?
>>342584607
TRIGGERED
that was THE cringe fest
Anybody know if modern technology can produce cartridges that can compete with modern blu ray disks? I can wrap my head around Nintendo wanting to:
>Compete with xbox and ps consoles
>have more modern gaming experience with better 3rd party support
AND
>use cartridges
They are sticking with PowerPC.
Anyone who pretends NX is going to have better hardware than wiiu and magically upscale all the lowres textures in BotW and remove pop-in is deluding themselves
what you see is what you'll get
"its not about teraflops"

>NC is getting an actual system seller on launch.
Well fuck my ass and call me a slut, this console might actually not be completey dead in the water.
>>342584859
Well an SD card is kinda like a cartridge, and they can store way more than carts used to, so I think it is feasible to make a cart for gaming with a huge amount of space for much cheaper than back in the N64 days.
As long as nothing has to be compressed, video wise, everything could look really good.
I mean, both mediums have their pros and cons
but I think cartridge tech has come a long way, maybe not blu-ray level, but I don't think it's too far away.
>>342585002
Unfinished game though, yes?
>>342585002

>>342585002

>>342584859
Flash storage have faster read/write speeds (wiiu disc read is capped at 22mb/s i think? while flash can easily double that and more) and can store more data in less physical space than optical media (an SDXC card can hold up to 2TB, for example).
The big disadvantage over optical media is price. For $10 you can get a 32GB SD, while for $30 on you can buy 50 blu-ray discs, which can hold 25GB each.
This means the price to mass produce the games might increase, making games more expensive. Something nobody wants to see.
I hope Nintendo doesn't make their games more expensive, the fact that they almost never drop prices makes it worse.
>>342583428
Nintendo Next is so generic and souless Miyamoto should be proud of you

I know you're just shitposting but for anyone who cares, this quote is out of context. It was originally said in direct reference to Microsoft and Sony's new 4K systems. Not the Xbone and PS4 themselves.
Let's be real here Nintendo trying to jump from the Wii U to a 4K machine straight away was never a possibility. We don't even know if that shit will work out for the other guys.

Any question?
>>342577421

Wonder what kind of flash memory they plan to use then. I suppose Nintendo could work out a good deal on reasonably fast NAND if it's going to be used for a long time.
I hope this doesn't increase the price of physical games.
>>342585357
I don't get it, since the Wii U didn't have the specs or the teraflops but it still sold on content alone. So when this >>342585862 comes up, isn't it a good thing that it's not about the specs or teraflops since they know they need 'killer apps' and third party support.
>>342585862
Do you have a Wii U?
>>342586046

more like
>didn't sell
so when this comes up:
> isn't it a good thing that it's not about the specs or teraflops since they know they need 'killer apps' and third party support.
the answer is that until this new zelda game, nintendo has had no specs, no teraflops and no content, just regular flops lmao
so now they're going to try to push the NX based on a single game. Does anyone really expect anything otherwise? The good news for nintendo is that a lot of people will be motivated to buy the nx because they can't play BotW on the wii u they never bought LOL
>>342577421
Any price rumored yet? Gonna pick one up for BotW unless it's like $500.

HAHAHAHA! When will they learn?
The Wii was a fluke and the sooner Nintendo realize this the better. Of course, knowing how out of touch with reality Nintendo is, it'll take them another 5 console releases before they realize they're never getting the Wii audience back.
>>342586209
pendulum has swung and flash memory is plainly superior to optical discs in function, albeit more expensive. Cartridges hold more, have faster read and are more durable.
the real question is how it will shake out price-wise and whether it will just complement a cloud-storage / streaming service model

>>342583332
I never had any problem with the Wii U gamepad, and I think it's bad to do not try anything new. I don't want another PS Bone 4 with the exact the same gamepad generations after generations, but with much power. Also, wanting a PS4 with Nintendo game will not work because 3rd parties will never port their games on a Nintendo console. The closest of your wish you could had : Nintend going 3rd partie.
>>342586209
Discs were a mistake
>>342586909
neither of those are killer apps
those are B-list games and nintencucks can't go a single thread without saying m-m-muh bayonetta as if it could stand in the same line as AAA titles like bloodborne or uncharted or halo. Nobody in good conscience can call the EIGHT mario kart remake a killer app that would draw a wide audience sorry
even smash bros basically died off with brawl when people reverted to playing melee at parties and nintendo ruined their shit with amiibos or whatever the fuck.

It might have only had 3 blockbusters but they are way too big to be ignored. Another thing that needs pointing out is that while the WiiUs library is definitely smaller, the quality of most of them is stellar. Especially DKCTF, Bayo2, W101, and Pikmin 3.
I'll buy it if it's not some super gimmicky thing like a 3ds you plug into a console
>>342587224
Why wouldn't be? the game is mostly finished, they are just waiting NX to be ready to launch.

>>342587364
Was it announced at e3?
>>342579960
What would be the modern benefits, if any, of going back to cartridges and memory cards on a home console? I'm genuinely curious why no one has gone back to them until now.
I wasn't planning on ever buying another console (aside from replacing my Saturn), but I'll keep an eye on this.
Go balls out Nintendo!
>>342587438
Pretty sure it was. It'd at least be in the BotW E3 stream.
>>342587395
The game was reported from 2016 to 2017 because they wanted to release it in both WII U & NX.
The game is ready, not the console.
If they released the game on wii u now, people wouldn't buy the NX just for Zelda.
They want people to buy the console.
This shit was the same back in 2006 with Twilight Princess.
I know it's meme to hate the WiiU (not just on /v/ but practically everywhere), but I really liked this console. It hasn't got a huge library, but a decent one, and every game I got for it was really fun and good. It's a bit sad that they are giving up on this console already. I feel like the console never had a chance to really start its course before it was already over.
>>342587578
And it'll be released on the NX and Wii U at the same time. So it'd make sense to be a launch title.
>>342587150
>>342587292
>splatoon
>mario maker

yeah thats how desperate nintendo fanboys are
you'd have to really delude yourself to thinking any of these approaches the AAA killer apps of nintendos history. The only game from this list >>342586661 anywhere close to as low profile as those would be star fox 64, which was already a classic
nobody is ever going to look back and say MK8 was a classic every gamer should have played at some point in their lives

>Took so long to write such poor bait.
Keep it spicy, familiar
>>342586209
This will be fucking abysmal for resale if it's true. Everything for Wii U that wasn't shovelware still sticks up towards the range of $40-$50 used, even 4 year old titles. Nintendo keeps the price up high with limited production, and that's with cases and discs costing a dime a baker's dozen to manufacture. Now tag cartridge costs on top of that, resulting in either increase sale price or even more limited production. Even escaping to the E-Shop won't help due to digital prices currently keeping up with retail new over the years with some of the biggest sales only being -30%. And some people want this.But then again that might not happen since this is an anonymous dick sucker on a Cantonese finger painting board so whatever

>>342583627
SD cards are made for storage first and speed second. If they're doing cartridges for NX then I'm expecting something similar to the DS/3DS carts.
>>342590064
Right, they would have to be optimised for gaming. Personally, I understand that N64 carts aren't coming back but I still want the satisfaction of popping a physical thing into a slot, you know? So gameboy sized carts would be really nice for that - not too big, not too small
>>342587475
>What would be the modern benefits, if any, of going back to cartridges and memory cards on a home console? I'm genuinely curious why no one has gone back to them until now.
Memory cards, fuck knows, made completely redundant by the use of cartridges....perhaps to better facilitate the transfer of saved games or to give people a physical representation of their Nintendo ID. You could even do something where you load your favourite games onto it, so you're not carting around a bunch of extra cartridges.
As for the benefit of cartridges, they're fast as fuck and can hold more than 5 times that of a Blue Ray....and they're small enough to stick in something like a handheld....as to why they haven't been used, they're expensive.

It's probably a retarded question but wouldn't a cartridge as big as, say, a GBA cart be easier and thus cheaper to produce?

Mario Kart 8 is the definitive mario kart
>tight control
>online is just on point
>courses are the best the series will get at this point. ditching anti-grav will cut half the freedom this game gave the developers
>character roster could be better but the couplings make up for it
>graphically impressive and stands against the ps and xbox no sweat
>it won't age horribly
>customisation on the ads was horribly done, 8 fixed everything
Aside from battle mode and the worst rainbow road this mario kart will be seen as the pinnacle of the series. i wouldn't be surprised if they just upraised the frames to 60 and upgraded the textures for the NX
>>342579651
>That is a BAD THING. A very, very BAD THING.
Why? What has the "Core" audience done to deserve Nintendo's attention? Why should Nintendo listen to them?
I'm serious, even though Sony, Microsoft and countless went with cinematic bullshit, paid online and so forth, people stayed with them and pretty much paved the future that we have now while Nintendo tried to gain the core audience as far back as the Gamecube which had a fair amount of third party games and graphics that could compete with the competition.
It's pretty clear that Nintendo could do something twice as strong as the fucking Scorpion, with 4k 60 FPS resolution and still not get much more sales because people care more about brand and brand history than games.
Nintendo has made plenty shit mistakes though, but this is happening because you all fucking made it happen.

That's all that we know as of now.
This cartridge business is getting out of hand and I still don't believe it.

The one?
>>342590726
Don't forget no moving parts to read them, so more durable and have lower power consumption. Also good for handhelds.
IMO I think NX will be two consoles based on a scalable architecture, so developing for both will be really easy.
>>342585002
>Magically
Yeah, and emulation "magically" makes games look better.
Pro tip: Games are made with high quality models and textures that are then scaled down to make it run properly. Draw distance and Depth of field is literally a switch that they have to turn off

I don't give a shit about graphics, but I do know that BotW is going to be a standard mediocre-at-best open world game.
I honestly hope that Nintendo just bleeds out and goes bankrupt over the next decade. Watching that slant-eyed nip fuckers suffer is the only thing that keeps me going sometimes.

They would never do 30fps. 3DS is 60.

>>342596476
It's a bad thing because the wii u was popular do to some shitty gimmick that casual fags loved, if they plan to recapture that audience be sure this next gimmick will be just as bad.
>>342607790
>the wii u was popular
Uh?
>>342607387
Not like I want games to be bad. I'm just not dumb enough to get hyped for Nintendo any more.
Cheers to you though, I hope you like it.
>>342577421
I'm pretty confident this is what we'll see as our lineup at launch:
>Zelda BOTW
>new 3D Mario with emphasis on exploration (glorious return of 3D platformers?)
>a few 3rd party ports
>one or two new 3rd party games that take advantage of console and Nintendo brand
We'll also get ports of the following other Wii U titles as "greatest hits" with all their DLC included and some slight improvements:
>Mario Kart 8
>Sm4sh
>Splatoon
>Mario Maker
And then games like Hyrule Warriors, 3D World, etc. will be downloadable... maybe with discounts for those who transfer over Wii U saves and confirm they own the game? Not sure how that could work.
Also VC should be fully loaded. I want everything back from Wii. Kind of bullshit I lost access to all my TGFX and Sega games.

mobile folk are handheld folk, the handheld generations after the gamecube have been the true generation of nintendo consoles, the home shit was scrollocaustic by comparison, now they will meld the two and stop shooting themselves in the foot by competing with their own products.
Imagine Pokemon being finally playable at home as well with silky smooth 60/1080p

I mean yeah, nothing is confirmed but things line up.
>>342610932
Pic of patent please
And I don't think they would have no disc drive. Probably a combo
![Nintendo_patent_NX_01[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/q7Vh0yW.jpg "Nintendo_patent_NX_01[1].jpg")
>>342611221
Here. I think the patent also talks about the console choosing to run a game at different graphics level based on the hardware mode or something.
Honestly it fits with the idea of NX being two brother consoles, a home and a handheld, running the same games at different levels.
>>342611516
Thanks anon
Patents mean shit but it is still an interesting read
>>342611221
>Probably a combo
I was thinking that too, but if Ninty can remove the disc drive, they'll save money and maybe that's the money they need to make up for the increased cost of carts.
Though something I could also see happening is carts for Nintendo first party titles and a disc drive to throw third parties a bone with their games. I wished I was more knowledgeable about these things so I could know how feasable that is
>>342612073
Seconding this
Does anyone know?
>>342612073
If Nintendo included an optical drive and a card reader in the system and essentially said that it was up to the publisher to decide which format(s) the game would be released on, then that's pretty much how that would work. The PC-Engine did something similar with their add-on for CDs [and revised models that combined it into one system].
It stands to reason, though, that the motivation for going to carts/cards may be motivated by getting the optical drive out of the systems BOM and possibly the hard drive, too, if the carts are fast enough.
>>342615524
right, the point is probably to get rid of the drive altogether.
With carts only, people will be worried about third party support. Perhaps Nintendo can strike a deal with them to make things attractive? Or they just don't give a damn because they figure they won't get all that much 3rd party support anyway. Hmm
>>342582267
>something fresh like the vr
>but no gimmicks whatsoever and have it be a copy of the ps4/x1
I don't even think you know what you want.
>>342577421

Okay, that's believable and there's basis for thinking this.
>memory cards
Why think this? Cartridges store memory already.
>>342617045

Won't have to worry about pop-in when you have cartridge power.

My "review" of Memetendo
posting in a children's thread
he buys expensive Fischer-Price toys
Iwata
a failed businessman, the trick code monkey fraud of the group. knows two tricks: forced laughter and dying. Brava Iwata, brava!
Reggie
a failed viral marketer with an ugly wife and children with terrible names ('myson fils-amie?'). he knows he's the least popular employee and desperately tries to fit in by making Reddit-tier jokes
Miyamoto
an over-the-hill "developer" weighed down by his talentless cronies. only makes simplistic video games because they're immune to criticism. his latest production 'The Nintendo NX' will expose him as a fraud and be a spiritual and economic disaster. He will eventually go the route of gunpei yokoi , shrivel up and die at the ripe age of 80
Alison
the curdling definition of a parasite. ditters away on social media on while the men do all the hard work. got caught and fired for dittering children too.
Sakurai
the only dev showing any self-improvement or growth. still has a long way to go, but has already outgrown Nintendo.
I like how Memetendo is a company founded upon innovation, insulting and berating others and their works, but HEAVEN FORBID that anyone criticize them! They'll even ban you from miiverse if they catch a whiff of dissatisfaction. It's amazing how creatively lazy the company has become. They were better when they were a starving group. Now they can sit on their fat asses, put on puppet shows and make bad facebook memes while you throw money at the screen. Amazing.
>>342577625
60 Hz refresh rate on any screen is pretty standard. There's no way they'd make it 30 Hz, I don't even think cutting that cost saves anything.
>>342617338
that's blatantly a large scale trademarking for merchandising and spin offs etc
>>342582267
The shittiest of ideas.
Honestly they should probably shoot for a resolution that would upscale well on 4k TVs (even if that resolution isn't 4k), but other than that I don't give a damn about power. I care about games. The WiiU had a few good games but it seemed like the A-teams at Nintendo weren't doing anything exciting. 3D World was the closest we got to a Mario Galaxy successor, and no one even acknowledged it as being one. We got no Metroid whatsoever. We only got a main series Zelda as an afterthought to the NX. We didn't get a console Animal Crossing. The Starfox game felt cheap and unpolished compared to what we usually expect from Nintendo. They need to focus on a much stronger first-party lineup for the NX. They should also focus on NX exclusive third party games (not multiplats).
Personally over the last couple years I've started to come to the conclusion that Nintendo shouldn't even make a home console anymore. There's no real reason. They're honestly just doing it because that's what they've always done. There's no reason they can't go the way of SEGA. I mean sure, SEGA was pretty much forced to do it while Nintendo is still very far away from being in that situation, but going third party did wonders for SEGA. No reason Nintendo wouldn't find similar success focusing on games instead of consoles.
>>342577583
first post best post
You guys are so fucking stupid, all video game trademarks mention cartridges you idiots.
Here's a Ubisoft mobile game trademark. It mentions cartridges
>>342609415
>BotW as a launch title
>Eh...
Fuck you, anon. This is the most impressive game that Nintendo has put out in fucking years. This one game looks better than anything that Nintendo has published in years. AND you can get it right when it comes out instead of waiting ages, like people who bought the Wii U for a new Zelda have been waiting.
>New Mario
>I'm close to dropping it
Why? Mario may be a franchise aimed at children, but the games are still very well made platformers, some of the industry's finest in most cases.
>Doesn't know what Pikmin 4 is
>I just don't care about games for kids anymore
You're either underage and need a b& or you do not play vidya and need to fuck off of this board.
