Nintendo Switch

I think the fact there's a Sheika Slate in the next Zelda game and its launching for the NX has got to be a good indicator for the size of the NX tablet and the name.

Plus if they call it Nintendo Slate they can make lots of references to wiping the slate clean, blank slate, new beginnings for the company etc.

Dev Kit image is fake, apparently.

looks like something they'd serve you a burger on in a pub that's trying to be a bit upmarket

Nintendo's late?

The dev kit looks like it has two Sky connections on the rear too. Looks like something to do with satellite TV rather than a console.

wasn't there a gamepad design with a hole in the middle? you might be in luck.

[Mr Cochese]

Well I, for one, cannot wait to buy another Nintendo console and the regulation five games.

Laura Kate Dale says the dev kit isn't real.

[Lorfarius]

It is if we believe.

[Girth Certificate]

I actually reckon this thing will have guitar type pedals to stamp on for new control configurations.

The thread title is EXACTLY the wrong length for me. I keep going to page 4!

What half decent launch title will be instantly elevated to legend status by posters desperately fending off buyer's remorse.

You know when we had F-Zero X, F-Zero GX and F-Zero AX? This console has an X in the name, it MUST be for a reason.

Found the Wii U launch trailer. Resetting expectations a bit, but personally I really liked the Wii U:

I'm still pissed off that golf game didn't come out. I was moaning to my other half about it last week.

Was it? All I want to do is hit the golf ball from the Wii U pad into the TV! Witch Craft!

I'd like a simple box you connect to a tv, with a simple control pad you hold in your hands, and a subscription you pay to access games released on a Nintendo online store every few months, all developed in-house, no mascot attached, no title given except a number, no announcement, no demo, no screenshots, no summary, no bullet point features, no set genres, no guaranteed quality, no guaranteed length, no expectations, all the creative talent set free. A rule being no game should taken longer to develop than a baby in the womb. Nintendo output is dead to me until they divorce themselves from viewing videogames as a commercial commodity and squeezing 'fun' and 'creativity' into very narrow, palatable boxes. Ultimately it's all business driven, not art driven, but it doesn't have to be, they can slice up their resources. Miyamoto understands the essence of videogame interactivity better than maybe anyone else, or used to, and now subscribes to the joy of interactivity through the control method rather than game design. There's some really smart mobile games that do so much with minimal graphics and simple gameplay, but are limited by the touch screen controls. With the creative and technical talent Nintendo have, they could once again become pioneers in innovation in game design, the most brilliant, skilled, experienced people aren't the ones at the cutting edge of what's exciting about this medium, and that's sad, and a waste.

Not too long now.
