>Nintendo's new game console is scheduled to enter mass production at the end of the first quarter 2016 and despite the fact that the Japan-based company is targeting to ship 20 million units in 2016, the device's upstream component suppliers expect shipments to only reach around 10-12 million units.

they haven't even officially announced it yet. i'm calling bullshit because thats simply not enough time.
didn't they JUST send out devkits?
>>318397331
Sounds legitit doesn't
>>318397460
Iwata expected the Wiiu to sell like 10 million in 1 year. And here we are at 3 years and it just now cracked 10 million.
>20 million in less than a year
>>318397331
This reminds of that one Microsoft faggot who wanted to sell 1 BILLION Xbox Ones in its lifetime, he was even completely serious about it.
Just a rumor
>>318397552
They just sent out dev kids to the c-teir developers. You better believe the usual super players got their kits way before that.
>>318397331
We already knew it was Q1 2016, it's why they held off on the Star Fox and Zelda releases.
Nice source.
So it's called nx to pay homage to the fact it'll bomb as bad as the 32x?
>>318397724
>still thinks Zelda will come out for the wiiu
>>318397467
We have to go through the fake specs leak phase first, where the Nintendo console is rumoured to be super powered.
Then comes the real specs and it turns out to be weak as shit.
Then comes the damage control and claims that there is somehow extra power to be unlocked.
I can't wait
>>318397802

This is why I didn't buy the Wii, the Wii U and I sure as hell won't be buying an NX either, although I've grown up with Nintendo since the NES days up to the Gamecube.
You Neo-Nintendrones are the problem and the root cancer to all of modern Nintendo's faggotry. You enable Neo-Nintendo.
>>318397331
well if its equal to the ps4 or better I dont see why it wont sell atleast 10 million year one. and if they actually get some kind of third party this time around.
>>318397331

GEE
Where did I hear that before?

We'll see it formally announced at E3, and it'll come out in 2017, because that's how Nintendo does shit. That's how they've ALWAYS done shit. They never release a console the same year it's revealed.
>>318398651
do retailers get those consoles for free to sell?
and retailers will spend money on something they won't being able to resell just like the WiiU, let alone 20 million units of it?
kek
>>318398624
whom.
>>318398150
Why are hardcore Nintendrones so fucking retarded.
>>318398292
it could only happen if the NX is something no braindead loyal-to-the-death rabid Nintendrone actually expects it to be.
If it's some kind of gimmicky Tamagochi device and not a real and traditional home console, normies could very well jump on its dick, if enough buzz and hype is generated.
I am one of those people who think the NX will be something entirely different from a traditional home console and I will laugh my ass off and shitpost Nintendrones into suicide when this proves to be true. Screencap this post.
>Nintendo
Literally who????
>>318398782
thanks senpai
>>318398787
you already do that. Whats going to change? Reaction images?
>>318398718
No, but retailers buy any shit up. Plus in the OP it adds 10-20million, which is achievable with worldwide retailers.
>>318398787
nintendo has created the home vidya-waifu system. waifu robot that can play your favorite vidya with you
seems possible with a wonderful 101 sequel
it is going to flop. it is going to have a spike at holidays like normal. it is going to flop again after that.
people aren't downgrading from their new shiny ps4s that are a year or 2 old. prepare for another blunder and deal with it faggots.

>>318398718
No, they have to PAY Nintendo for the privilage of stocking NXes!
Daily Reminder that SEGA sold 9 million Dreamcast units in 1.5 years with no money.
Nintendo sold 10 million units in 3 years with amiibo shits, memes and please nostalgia remember me don't let Nintendo die

is gamecube all over again if the specs are true.
Also wiiu literally killed third party relations.
An dfirst party on wiiu were mediocre at best.
Can't wait till Sony ponies are using inferior hardware to Nintoddlers.
>>318399630
the snes era was pretty retarded too
once the ps hit the market, every developer was on sony wagon
If only M$ remembered its SEGA heritage...

Dead on arrival unless it's something totally separate from consoles.
>>318399792

Can't argue with that.

no

>>318399786
This literally won't happen. It's not a home console.
>there are people who bought a wii u over the weekend
in 2016 the PS4 will be cheaper than a new nintendo machine but still a lot more powerful, and with developers knowing how to fully utlitize it.
it will take AT LEAST 1 year for developers to make anything worthwhile on the NX.
nintendo is dead in the water here. wii u is a failure and nintendo is trying to go round 2 with a new console.
sony is such a powerhouse this generation.

there are also people who think the ps4 has any worthwhile exclusives
these people should all be shot

>>318399939
sorta
back in the 90's Sega released the Saturn to the public before the actual release date and they released it on the DAY OF THEIR E3 CONFERENCE
back in 1995, when everyone still got info from gaming mags. imagine walking into EB games or GS and seeing nintendos new console on shelves months before it was supposed to.
and we all know how well the Saturn did...
I find this hard to believe..
If they are shipping 12 million, it's something "more" than a simple videogame console.
>>318399614
>>No third parties discussing it.
that point is wrong though.
>>318400393
>people really enjoy bloodbourne
source?
>>318400429
PSTV was worth my $50 purchase.
Literal Danganronpaul and Atelier + machine though. Everything else comes to PC.
I seriously hope they don't have Animal Crossing as a launch title because that would mean I'd have to get it Day 1 regardless of how shitty it might be.
>>318397331
What the fuck kind of unrealistic expectations are these?
>>318397632
>>318399626
I imagine their strategy was not that of an oridinary console. I think they were planning to make Kinect become something everyone wanted, and eventually make Kinect something everyone got built in into their tvs, and with that, Xbone. If they had succeeded in making Xbox One a piece of standard equipment in televisions, 1 billion would not be out of reach.
>>318399614
wouldn't say its impossible. end of Q1 gives ample time to make holiday sales

Vita was abandoned straight up.
>>318400575

would be the single biggest disappointment in vidya history. all the capcom promises, all the squeenix countdowns, spore. nothing could compare to the singularity of righteous asspain that would cause. and i'd be right there with them
>>318400443
>>318400170
This one's better, I think.
>>318400640
but the Wii is clearly week, is made by Nintendo, they still believe in the IRON FIST
Call me when it's confirmed that it won't be yet another underpowered console running hardware already obsolete before release day. If it's even able to compete on somewhat even ground with the X1 then colour me impressed. My money is still on a pointless gimmick function which the console is built around that people will get bored of within a month.
And before you start spouting baseless rumours about it being powerful: remember that you said the exact same thing about Wii U -- that it wouldn't be a overclocked Wii and actually able to compete with MS and Sony. Yeah, at least you were close.....oh wait.
>>318399192
The gimmick is VR
>>318398042
I've concluded I'm just not Nintendo's target market anymore.
I couldn't give less of a shit about Amiibo, another new Super Marios Bros, whatever fucking Smash they're on and whatever other garbage.
I have literally 5 wii-u games. Bayonetta 2, RE: Revelations (should've just gotten it on ps3), Pikmin 3, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, and Nintendoland
Nothing looks appealing. Nothing looks exciting.
I don't give a shit about Mario Kart or Smash Bros. Even my friends who are hardcore into smash don't even give a fuck.
I won't be buying another console when they didn't even fucking try to release a Metroid game and the Zelda game is no doubt just getting pushed to the NX to encourage launch day sales.
>>318400224
So fucking over the few people who did buy your products will not lead to bankruptcy? Lets be real here. The NX will not bring anyone back to nintendo, no matter what it is or what games it has. They are completely irrelevant in the video game market. They are done
>>318399614
>>No third parties discussing it.
>what are Capcom, SE, Atlus, Spike Chunsoft
>>318400470
>>318400393
this is a fair point, however i personally do not believe one game is enough to warrant the purchase of an entire system. however, that wasn't stated in my original post so that's my bad.
i do think infamous is dogshit though so i have to disagree with you heavily there.
>>318400420
you on the other hand are part of the people that need to be lined up against a nice brick wall and shot right in the head next to the people defending nintendo gimmicks and the non-existant xbots.
literally ruining video games.
>>318400748
Handheld version.
Well I didn't buy the Wii-U on release and I sure as hell wouldn't buy the NX on release.
I buy consoles after they get games. Let retards provide the install base for me. This applies to every console.
>>318400748
Damn, you Amerifats are thirsty for Nintendick.
Why can't nintendo just quit?
No I mean, why they can't just stop making hardware?
Their games are good, but their consoles are shit.
So fucking why?
Hell, become a handheld company then, your handhelds are good, but why fucking insist in home consoles?
Because of tradition?
>>318400575
>>318400730
Worst part is that I could honestly see this being the case. And along with it it would imply that Nintendo would be going full casual.
Just release DOAX4 with Peach, Rosalina and Daisy
>>318400748
That jump in percent in NA for the N64 is literally all due to Goldeneye. Nintendo needed to realize FPS were the future but failed to do so.

>>318400927

>>318400885
i agree, but its unlikely. the devs that have received the NX devkits said that its capable of producing graphics that their hardware just cannot keep up with.
could mean its ultra high tech, could mean its poorly designed and can't work with its own resources. but i doubt they'd say that about a cellphone
>>318400753
It HAS to be at least Xbone level or else they wouldn't even be putting it out and might as well just stick with the Wii U and change its name to the EdgyVonEdginator to draw in the rooty tooty shooty crowd

Need I remind people that the 3DS, despite selling worse than every other Nintendo handheld, is the BEST SELLING SYSTEM this gen? Beating every other consoles sales COMBINED?
If you really want to see pitiful, then look no further than the Vita.
"Vita sales managed to sneak up a few hundred in the latest Media Create chart, but it looks like we've hit the ceiling for 2015, and perhaps for the future, bar the odd big-name release.
Even sales of 25,800 for Atelier Sophie, 25,100 for Omega Labyrinth can't help pop the Vita out of its current flattish trend. Now PS4 sales are outstripping games that usually do better on the Vita, its hard to see an upside.
As we approach end of year, Japanese Vita sales for the past three years are 1,232,967 - 1,173,823 - 804,192 with five weeks to go. Sales are unlikely to pass a million, unless Steins Gate 0 goes gangbusters."

Iwata said in 2014 that their next system will redefine the meaning of the videogame platform or something like that.
The NX is probably an all new idea so people will be more excited for it.

They already said that VR "is just not fun" so I doubt it.
>>318401347
Yes, actually. It's not on a neat graph but it's there: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/library/historical_data/pdf/consolidated_sales_e1509.pdf

What >>318401568 said; the first two charts use the numbers released by Nintendo themselves in the link I posted.
>>318401279
innovation doesn't sell anymore
they'll make another CoD/Fifa machine and it will sell like hotcackes because of it
>>318401321
but it literally does
as i replied to those people earlier, the only game i see worth a shit is bloodborne. one game is not enough to warrant the purchase of a console.
everything else on it is multiplat and/or on pc.
it has everything to do with console loyalists, theyre the only people that would purchase a ps4 without it having a wealthy library at first. that or really rich souls fans.
but please, go back to hugging your cutout of kaz and whisper to him that it's okay, you defended him from the big bad criticisms of a "nintendrone".
im gonna go play dancing all night like the weebshit i am, and then after that play some super mystery dungeon.
and later tonight, I think i'll top it off with a nice second playthrough of human revolution that i've been meaning to do for a while.
fucking pleb.
Do you guys think Kimi had enough time to unfuck the NX from Iwatas bullshit, or was it too far along in the R&D process by the time he got put in charge? I'm nervious because it seems like Iwata went to the very end without learning a damn thing.
So this is the final nail in the coffin for Nintendo's reputation as a company, right? They won't go bankrupt for years, but if the NX fails they'll lose everyone except the die-hard fanboys.

You just can't sit on technology anymore like Nintendo did with the Wii U because of the rate at which it becomes obsolete. Both the PS4 and Xbone revealed and launched in the same year. Nintendo unveiled the Wii U in 2011 and then launched it in 2012. The hardware was finalized in 2011 meaning by the time it came out in 2012 it was already 1 year out of date even by Nintendo standards. They've probably realized they can't keep doing this.
There's no strategic reason for sitting on finished hardware in 2016. When you have something you need to get it out while it's still new. They can't survive another Wii U

The dreamcast enjoyed a year or two of being by far the most powerful console out there. even with the looming ps2, gamecube, and xbox.
The wii u came out looking comparable to the ps3 and 360 at the time, coupled with no marketing, and a shoddy reputation after the wii.
>>318401701
You have to look at the larger picture anon, most normalfags don't have a decent pc, not even a laptop these days, most of them use their tablets even for school and business shit, so if they wanna play vydia, they'll buy a console that has all the FIFA's/COD's/Madden's on it and that the media tell's them is the most powerful of the 3.
Europe and Japan has always been a Sony continent/country regardless of specs anyway, even in the PS3 days, it was the most dominant console in Europe next to the Wii.

It didn't though. The Dreamcast was out in Japan 2.5 years before it was discontinued and when it was discontinued it didn't disappear from the shelves it still sold a couple million at $50. You can't just take its lifetime sales and pretend it sold that much before discontinuation. If it really sold 9 million 1.5 years they'd have no reason to discontinue it, those are relatively good sales.

>>318397331
There's actually nothing that will make the NX sell. Does it have some sort of gimmick? Whether the answer is yes or no, that's a bad thing. If yes then it's another gimmick console. It no then it's a redundant, unnecessary console which will just be like the PS4 and Xbox One.
What makes them think third party devs will be interested in developing for the Wii U? Nintendo will never abandon their "kiddy" image in the eyes of dudebros, and Sony and Microsoft will just do pricecuts on their consoles and / or release new consoles that do everything the NX does but more and better once the NX is out. Thus rendering the NX useless.
It won't have any games, nobody will want to develop for that awkward "between gens" console that's seen as being for kids, devs will instead hold out for the next Sony and Microsoft consoles, it either won't have any sort of interesting gimmick to get people to buy it, or it will just be another shitty unnecessary redundant console, and Nintendo is fucking all the Wii U owners in the ass by abandoning it so quickly. The Wii U should have lasted until at least 2017. Now they're charging us another $400 (or however much it will cost) for a shitty console with no games.
>>318402437
>Are PC games bad or something?
No you idiot, a console forgetting how to be a console is what's bad. Remember when different architectures were chosen purely for potential gaming performance? Remember when there was variety of truly different platforms for developers to try different types of gameplay mechanics on? Remember when even the storage mediums of the console varied? Companies (both hardware and software makers) need to go back to taking big risks for this industry to be interesting again.Probably not gonna happen, but I can hope.
>>318400221
Oh fuck off, I'm a big sony faggot right now but if nintendo actually could compete I would buy their products. At the moment I just have the 2DS and it has everything they put out I could want, hopefully the NX actually does something worthwhile.

This is what people don't realize. Nintendo backed themselves into a corner and they NEED a gimmick to survive now. Remember that it's been 10 years since Nintendo stopped going after Sony/Microsoft directly, and focusing primary on casuals. There are entire generations of people who grew up never knowing a Nintendo that was anything but kiddy/side console to pair with something better. If they go after Sony/Microsoft now they die, it will take another decade of marketing for them to unfuck themselves out of this.
>>318403383

Because the Wii had the most sales. It was logical to port your games to an inferior console because of the sheer volume of wii's sold.
Why would you port your game to a console with less units sold? Thats like the dumbest idea ever.
The Wii was a fucking anomaly. The NES and SNES basically ran uncontested in North America the N64 had a lot of resistance with the PS1 and the GC was successful but also eclipsed by the PS2. The Wii sold like hotcakes (my fucking parents and grandparents bought wii's for christs sake)
The Wii-U hasn't.
The NX most likely won't either, especially since buying a console, then having support dropped so quickly will garner some bad blood.
Like other anons suggested, Nintendo should just drop Home Console and focus on Handheld. Its obviously their forte and is way more successful.
>>318403698
>Why would you port your game to a console with less units sold? Thats like the dumbest idea ever.
You need at minimum 1-2 years to know which will be the "most sold".
Does Nintendo refuse to become a 3rd party company for PC or Sony because they have a suicide pact to never stop making consoles or else commit seppuku?
>>318403028
I think what we're seeing is that we've reached the consensus from all of the experimentation in that the PC style architecture is the most efficient for gaming. There's no need to take risks anymore because it's all been done and we have a solid result.
There's nothing wrong with the PC architecture.

>>318403741

Its been eclipsed by the PS4, who is the clear 'winner' at this point. Probably because people realized the Wii-U was basically just a PS3.

why are /v/ users such niggers?
>>318403960
Yeah and whats your point?
Its going to be the "first" of the new gen, since Wii-U is competing with PS4 and Xbox One for this gen.
Being the first can be a good or bad thing. The issue is its coming in mid generation.
The PS4 is gaining a lot of steam right now and probably won't be on the outs until like 2018 or later. Hell if we go with the 7 year cycle, the PS4 is going to be on the outs in fucking 2021.
Fact is we're going to have the NX be either slightly more powerful, or equivalent, to current hardware, most likely with some bullshit gimmick, and people are going to be mad, because they basically abandonned the Wii-U.
Hell, people will be mad even if its some weird handheld hybrid, because I know a lot of people who bought 3DS' recently.

Exactly. Its a mid generation thing.
Its like a 8.5th gen. Its too late to be a real contender, and its too early to be "the next big thing"
We're going to get some half assed console that doesn't do anything better, will have garbage support and lacking even basic functionality. I sure hope you like your friend codes, and no online chat n your games.
It's gonna be pretty interesting to see what happens
PS4 will have like 45-55 million consoles when the NX is released and it will have the most third party support by now
People don't buy third party games for Nintendo consoles and i highly doubt that people will buy it for Smash or Mario outside of their drone fanbase.
It's gonna be pretty interesting to see what happens with this NX.
Okay. Now that the Wii U is coming to its end - What are the games worth owning there?
-Bayonetta 2
-W101
-Mario 3D World
-Splatoon
-Pikmin 3
-Smash 4
-MK8

Nintendo is hopelessly after. Wii was essentially popular because of wagglan. Parents bought it in droves and then let it collect dust.
The general public doesn't give a fuck about Super Mario or Zelda anymore. Except for Splatoon, Nintendo has accomplished jack shit in terms of IPs. No third parties. What's left? Appeal to the casuals with some kind of gimmick or addictive F2P game that smacks even Valve on the hands in terms of costumes and shit. I don't think they'll succeed.
>Zelda Wii U is confirmed for not-2016

Do you really think Nintendo is going to release a Wii U game a year after the console got replaced?
>>318402508
Sega was damaged from all their past mistakes. They hadn't had a true profitable console since the genesis by then. Systems like the Saturn tanked in one major region, did ok in another, and never paid off the cost to even manufacture. The only market that Sega had which never faded was Arcades. And even that limited to Japan.
Even Dreamcast full of stupid shit like making a video game that cost so fucking much that every console owner would have to buy two copies to make it profitable.

Define "makes it." If by makes it you mean outsell the competition while being insignificant as a platform, I wouldn't care. Say what you want, Nintendo NEEDS third party support to stay RELEVANT, they can stay afloat on their own. No one is going to buy a box that doesn't have GTA, or MGS, or FF, arguably the three most prestigious third party IPs out there.
If by make it you mean Nintendo becomes a viable competitor to both MS and Sony, then that's what they need to do. At the very least, Nintendo needs to fight for Japan's console marketshare, since the current Jap console scape is entirely Sony dominated. And coincidentally, the Japanese console market is withering, with more and more developers jumping to handheld and mobile games. In that case, mfw.

New IP's are coming and going all the fucking time though. The fact that Nintendo isn't getting -any- of that is horrible.
Nioh is looking really good and you can sure as shit bet they aren't going to release it on a Nintendo platform.
I can make a few predictions, and thats mainly that Nintendo is going to try really hard to hang onto Platinum based on them deving Star Fox Zero and other shit like bayonetta 2 being exclusive.
But I think Sony is getting wise. I expect Sony to try and lock down FROM and maybe even try and discourage even PC versions of the FROM games, but we'lll see if that goes anywhere, since FROM is apparently done with Souls its going to lose relevance to the average player (still waiting for AC6 and Otogi 3 myself).
It just... doesn't make sense to take a risk with a new IP on the weakest console. You cast a wider net by deving for the best console, or making it multi-plat, and if your console is objectively inferior then you get an even shittier port or no port at all.

Pretty much what i already siad. Its stupid to launch a new console so early. By the end of next year 50-75% of the audience for multiplats will have a xbone or ps4 to play these games for the next few years and the casual audience dosent buy consoles anymore to get their game fix.
If it really is a high end console to rival ps4, that comes next year, it will be a disaster, as no one will go out to buy one for multiplats, especially when they cant play online with their friends that already own a ps4/bone, let alone buy one if they already have one of those consoles and nintendo fans are partially pissed about dropping the wii u so wont go out and buy bulks.
And worst of all it is another wii u situation where they fight over getting the few people who dont have a console to buy theirs with their competitors already having massive lead in sales and popularity(from both developers and consumers).
>>318398692
>We know it's a home console
False. Faggots want you to think that, but in reality it's most likely a new kind of handheld, similar to the jump between GBA and DS.
There's a reason all these 3DS third party developers have brought it up.

Sony funds the development costs.
Its an investment for them. Sure, they may not make very much return on the actual game sales.
What they want is to sell systems.
Systems sold = people buying peripherals, buying subscriptions, buying stuff on the PSN, buying games.
Your development budget and total sales could be a fucking wash, but if you got more people to adopt the system it was successful.
Bloodborne may have been a wash, it was successful but not hugely so, but it also attracted a huge player base who may have been fence sitting between an Xbox One and a PS4 to jump to the PS4 side.

If it's x86 then Nintendo won't have problems getting 3rd party. Final PS4 kits didn't arrive till June 2013. Developers are used to doing tight schedules for launch and the PS4 launch games came in hot. Will be the same with NX when it launches in 2016

Enjoy your blood console, I'll just be enjoying my conflict free ps4
Nintendo is going to kill themselves with this. There is no way this can turn out good.
I await Nintendo finally nailing their own coffin shut and going third party.

And this piece of shit still ha sONE good first part nintendo game
What the fuck were they thinking? WHy the fuck didnt they make games for the Wii U?
Can we just agree that Nintendo putting out another console, either in 2016 or even 2017, is going to make both Microsoft and Sony shit out a rushed as hell console as a knee jerk reaction?
>>318397331
Nintendo's done. The consumer has caught on to them. Looking forward to another well-deserved blunder.

>>318404334
I don't even mind gimmicks. I think the Wii U pad controller is great, but it would be better if it was a USB device for PC. It would be less funds for Nintendo if they did it that way, plus we'd see games like Zelda and Metroid with better visuals; I'd love to see Zelda actually taking advantage of an i5 and GTX 970. It could be like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FTfrKOQFPNA
I don't even mind amiibos either. People like toys / action figures; it's a thing. I know people think it's a scam but when I buy amiibos, it's because I like the character and I just want a cool figure of them. They could still do their amiibos on PC too.
>>318407395
microsoft's reaction will be to watch, and if its 'scary', then they may go full into PC gaming. they are the literally who of gen 8 and there's not a lot of oomph behind them. may give them an excuse to bow out entirely
sony is high on its success and won't see it as a threat until numbers say it is
>>318407447
>NSAstation
Why did I read that as Anastation?
>>318407395
I doubt it honestly.
Next console from MS/Sony is going to most likely be trying for 4k, and shit like Just Cause 3 on Xbone isn't even 1080p (its 900p).
I think they'll wait for awhile until 4K gets more established then release, I posted earlier, I predict this gen goes 7 years, so we're looking at 2020's
>>318405758
Yeah, it's a good thing Sony, Microsoft or Apple took the moral high ground on this one.
>>318407671
>MS steps out of the console market
>supports PC gaming
>when Sony has unanimously monopolized the console market
That will go over real well I bet.
>>318407129
If nintedo want x86 it pretty much is AMD or gtfo. Nvidia ragequit consoles after they fucked sony and didn't rake in the dosh for the ps3. IBM had more or less ditched all their fabs and Intel's gpu technology is positively awful. With the current industry trend for SoC in low power evelopes the only player with the IP's and know-how to deliver such a product is AMD.
If within the windows environment for consumer level integrated graphics AMD massacres intel. ARM is another possibility but it depends on how high performance nintendo really want.

After that they merge with Sega to become the greatest vidya company and bring back the golden age of video games.

>>318407761
You've forgotten that half of the 360/PS3 games were upscaled even though the systems were physically capable of outputting a 1080p signal. The fact that current games on the Xbone/PS4 still can't or just downright won't output to 1080p is proof enough that they are willing to make another console that touts being "4k" when they will in fact be 900p or something similar upscaled to a higher resolution.
>>318407983
I don't think it will work that way. The one who controls the market has the right to tell their developers what they can and cannot do. The PlayStation will dominate the console market, and PC won't even get console ports. Remember 6th gen? There were barely any console ports, and a LOT of games were console exclusive. With Sony being the only one, all games will be Sony exclusive.
>>318407635
Looks like shit tee bee haytch eff ay am
Sure, let's make non-portable console. The last one was a huge success yeah?
Nindendo will seriously make more money going mobile + handheld and ditching consoles completely, back then kids loved nintendo, now kids want new cawadooty and play on ps4/xbawx.
They expect 20 million sales with most niche console audience ever?
>mfw someone somewhere thought it would be great idea to make new system even though Wiiu flopped like a hard turd
so is nintendo gonna actually make a normal fucking console this time? no retarded gimmick shit? maybe actual 3rd party devs?
>20 million
so what's this killer game they're revealing that's gonna make people buy 20 million units
>>318408205
Will never happen. And it isn't cartridges anymore, it would be cards in that case, like for DS. Cartridges died with the Gameboy Advance.
Would be cool, and necessary if they want a hybrid where you buy your media, but it's too expensive so it wouldn't happen. Nintendo always uses the cheapest option possible (see screens).

>>318407874
To be honest I think the console market's lifetime is limited. Consoles used to be worth it, you paid for top of the line hardware that the company ate the cost of. Now nobody wants to use top of the line hardware in favor of earning a fast profit. Basically, I don't think consoles will exist past next generation.
Why bother to buy a console, for example, when your smart TV has better hardware built in, and runs games itself?
>>318397331
It's an AMD machine, if they use Zen, it outpaces PS4. Even a quad core will suffice. It will even have HBM2.

>>318408882
Apparently, a lot of Wii U games that were in development are now coming to the NX.
>>318397331
I hope this does sell well so everyone will forget about the Wii U and I can compliment my weeb collection with a cheap Wii U
>>318408714
>that pic
Given that is basically Nintendo's official position on why the wii u sold like shit this insanity is par for the course.
>>318408968
But they haven't given an official announcement that they are though, the NX isn't getting released in 4 months with no game announcements or buildup unless if Nintendo wants to sell even less than the Wii U
>>318408962
The earliest memory I have of this one was in the Something Awfull forums back in 2003
>>318408741
Why wouldn't they? Consoles will have no use in the future. Tablets will replace them. They are already replacing PCs, and when it gets easier to connect to a TV there will be no reason to own a console anymore.
Microsoft's vision is one OS for everything, and you can just connect it to screens you leave around the house. In fact, the phone may be the thing to replace the console. When the phones are able to run all the newest games, and can easily be connected to a TV, why would people still by a console?

I can easily see cellphones and tablets eventually dominating every corner of the market and making consoles and PCs irrelevant.
If they come out with a tablet that lets you swap its guts for better hardware, everything is lost.
>>318409029
May go the opposite way friend, it'll be cheap early on when the NX comes out, but consoles/games which sell extremely poorly from well-known companies tend to become expensive compared to their popular counterparts
see: Saturn, Virtual Boy, most likely Vita in the future.
That being said, Wii U could become more of a Dreamcast situation where the console is cheap, but the best games stay around 40-60.
>>318408962
>PC users are so fucking keked.
Nice job reading my argument. While PC will probably hold on for a little while, it too is ultimately doomed.
I again reiterate. In the year 2025, what reason is there to buy a potential ps6 when your smart TV itself has better hardware and runs games aswell?
>>318407874
When a competitor exits. Two more usually take its place (Porters Five Forces of busines
MS exits. Then there's a huge vacuum for new competitors to step in. That makes it easy for a new competitor like Samsung or Nvida to come in and kick Sony in the dick.
Sony is likely praying MS doesn't exit the market because they are the only force keeping other potential competitors out of the console market out.
What if the NX is a Steam Machine?
Just give me backwards compatibility and wired controllers with no gimmicks.
>>318408532
What does the PS4 have?
>>318409108
Nintendo is funny like that. Just like with this year's E3 regarding Amiigo Festival and FedEx Force, they insisted that they did no wrong and that people just don't understand them.Hopefully, we were only right about Amiigo Festival. I miss good Metroid games and hope the next one surprises me.

Seems like the end of Nintendo is near. People are probably still pretty pissed of at the WiiU and this isn't gonna calm them down. It's almost like they doing Sega mistake and there is no reason to do a new console generation right now. If this stinker is gonna have same low specs compared to the other consoles and new consoles then it's over.

>>318412546
If they don't drop the Wii brand, they're dead.

>>318408714
>Nintendo
>out of touch
That implies that they atleast know how to please their old audience but they even fail in that department.
Right now Nintendo is pandering to a non-existent audience of plastic addicted non-gamers with titles that are out of the interest of the modern audiences and too bad for the hardcore audiences.
>>318413062
They should drop the Wii name because most people who bought the Wii got disappointed. I know this because I'm one of those.
Their next console is named Nintendo NX. If you can't tell it's by Nintendo from that please check a doctor, anon.

>>318413359
SHIT WRONG THREAD
>>318397331
This is the biggest example of "early to the party" in the history of the video game industry.
Nintendo is so overconfident that they actually think they can start the 9th generation on their own even though no one else is even remotely interested in going there yet.
>>318413850
Imagine if they pulled it off
>>318413850
Hadn't we agreed that NX isn't going to be Ninty's 9th gen offering as much as their offering for the second half of 8th gen?
>>318399186
Daily Reminder that Sega in such a shitty financial state managed to grab so many 3rd party titles while Nintendo who is in a very lucrative position can't do the same for the Wii U because they don't give a single fuck about their customers
>>318413850
PS4 and Xbone are completely failing at running the latest games already.
Nintendo comes in and kicks Sony out by having COD at a better resolution and framerate and the casuals will jump again.
It's genius. Especially since the hardware of those two is so shit Nintendo could pull it off.
>>318413905
If they managed to pull it off, then great, but customers are in the mindset of a long-term purchase. This ain't the 90s anymore. People expect their shit to last for a good 7 years minimum. Hell, the 360 turned 8 years old when the Xbone came out, and people thought it was too soon to replace the old systems.
>>318413850
I think people will start considering Nintendo's console generations as something different from the other competitors. Nintendo's 9th gen will most likely be comparable to the PS4 and Xbone in terms of power.
>>318413850
>>318413905
i think theyre hoping to bring out a system that overpowers the ps4 and xbone with them not being replaced for another 6ish years
i mean honestly the xbone and ps4 are already outdated, this is well documented.
doesnt mean they might have a few good games, but this generation more than ever just owning a good pc makes those obsolete by a long shot
As long as I can play the NX outside, I'm sold

>>318414095
With Nintendo's policy on making affordable systems, I doubt they'll put out something that'd overpower the PS4 or Xbone. If they do, it won't be by much, but they'd probably just put out something roughly on par to those systems as to not charge too much for it.
>>318414051
That's not how Nintendo does it.

>They can't survive another Wii U
They can.
>>318414051
First of all, CoD already runs at 60fps on the PS4 and Xbone
Second of all, didn't we already do this before with Nintendo having the superior CoD title? They even took the time to promote Blops 2 themselves before the Wii U came out.
>>318402598
man that looks like shit
>>318413850
spotted the retard consoler warer
>>318414772
The 360 ran Blops 2 better in the end.
If Nintendo came out and really got into tech specs with "COD 2016 runs 1600P at 90FPS" then they would instantly get casuals
I am calling it right now. New console will have nintendo for the name part of its name so people don't get confused over whether this new shit is just another controller for the wii

Know your limitations. Gen 8 is more embarassing than gen 7.
>>318415790
It would be nice to get a somewhat powerful Nintendo console that isn't based around a gimmick.
>>318413850
It's not even a true generation 9 console, more like a 8.5 console because the Wii U was a generation 7.5 console.

And they're very right. I'd rather they just support the Wii U until they've managed to make VR fun though. Another two years of R&D would do them good.
Is Nintendo the new Sega?
this is like the sega saturn and the n64 release combined
I dont have enough popcorn for this

No nintendo console has left me with such a bitter taste in my mouth as the Wii U and the Saturn. So I predict this one will have really amazing launch titles and 2 years of support until they work for Sony and Microsoft.
God fucking speed. I loved Nintendo so much throughout 2 decades it's sad to see this.
I'm curious, but not very excited. A few years ago I'd be very against this, but I think I'd rather see Nintendo try and take advantage of smartphone hardware instead of trying to make a profit off of shoddy attempts at modern portables and consoles. They just don't have the supply chain to compete with Apple and Android manufacturers. I feel like they could be the ones to turn touch screens into something just as intuitive as controllers if they spent enough time and energy working on it. Then again, they could surprise me.
