Yfw nintendo reveals the nx and it's exactly like the wiiu. The "hybrid console" is a tablet controller that acts as both a controller and a portable game system, it's underpowered and has no 3rd part support.

If it has a strong launch lineup (BotW at launch is a great start), and decent marketing it could be a decent success.
Is it really going to have a fucking tablet controller does anyone know?
Honestly, though, I expect the NX to be mobile-related, most likely by means of (optionally) allowing users to use their phones as controllers or gamestreaming.
I mean think about it, the Wii U gamepad had several features phones have already (touchscreen, NFC, camera/mic), and with Nintendo releasing a few mobile games it'd make a lot of sense to me for them to try to integrate mobile phones as either an (optional) way of using a touchscreen, or potentially a way to stream games to your phone and play them on the go, most likely with a peripheral that clips on the phone for physical buttons.
If this does happen, I don't know if I'd be all for it or against it, I guess it'd depend how it's done.

Unlikely based on how poorly the Wii U has done and what the Zelda guy said about it. Something about comparing it to having a GPS in your lap instead of your dashboard.

Off-TV play was a great feature, so they might consider it for that alone.
who cares.
get a life, nerd.

I doubt they'll waste precious BoM on a mediocre tablet device
What they should do is implement something like remote play but do it properly so there's less input lag, and don't lock it to Vita / Xperia exclusively. Anyone with an iOS or Android device could use that screen as their NX display.

I agree, that's why I suspect >>344201627 will happen

I think there's a good chance
Remote play on PS4 via the Xperia phones is okay but with more modern encoding hardware could work a lot better. Why make the customer buy all that hardware when they already own it in the iPhone / Android phone anyway? They could then invest more heavily into the actual part of the console that matters.

>it's underpowered and has no 3rd part support.
It's basically guaranteed it won't have any 3rd party support. The past 2 generations for Nintendo always had that drought that it's become a signature for its consoles.

Exactly, plus it could potentially mean backwards compatibility with Wii U or even DS/3DS on virtual console with the phone used as a controller.
Any modern phone has NFC support so amiibos would be fine, too.

NX will actually probably sell even worse than the Wii U and Nintendo will further fuck themselves over. NX could very well be their last console they ever make. I can easily see them going mobile after that, it's clear that even they're thinking about it.
Really sad to see Nintendo in this state. They used to be far better.
