Nintendo NX rumored to use Nvidia's Pascal GPU architecture

Quick roll call....

What date is everyone guessing for the event? I'm going with 9/14

What do you think?

I'm going with the first full week of September (7th or 8th) for a Nintendo announcement (non-NX, possibly some Direct), then the last week of September, let's say the 28th or 29th, Nintendo will make another announcement specifically regarding the NX.

So, you're expecting the actual reveal in mid-late October then?

A Nintendo Direct for what? Nintendo has nothing whatsoever to make a Direct about. Pokemon is doing its own thing and Paper Mario will get updated with trailers...

I don't know what it will be, maybe an announcement revealing the NX announcement, it will be something though.
 
Seriously Nintendo should hire the guy behind the game explain channel to help hosting the "show" or live streaming it with some insight, they need some real gamer to be there, it's time for Reggienattor to hang the boots

That will just spur more people to complain about Andre's voice.
 
The hunger has lost control. People are starving for an announcement of an announcement. Aren't you bored asking when each day?
I just want to know the price so I can know how much I can spend between now and March.

Besides three almost already paid off games, if NX is $250 + $60 for game then that leaves me with $80, enough for any game or possibly two, but I just don't know if it goes up and I already spent the money I'm fucked. It seems crazy to launch at $300 but the tech seems crazy for a handheld. I can't take any chances. I just know they'll wait until January to announce a price.

Damnit Nintendo, I need to know exactly how much I need to spend a year ahead of time. ITS NOT FAIR! WWWWAAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!

It's good to see Square really wanting to support the NX. Nintendo must've done something right with it lol. I don't care for those type of games (I just want DQXI!), but the more support the better.

If SE localizes it, watch how DQ11 gets released in English for the PS4, but not the NX.

They'll publish both, and probably a Steam port too.

DQXI 3DS however is obviously up to Nintendo to rescue. And that's the one I'd rather get tbh. :/
 
That's because you listen to "insiders". They'll take you on a roller coaster. Ignore and wait.
Treating those with an actual track record the same as 10k and SuperMetalDave is dumb.

Has nothing to do with me being disappointed. I could game on my phone from now on and be fine. The fact that they even mentioned it is what I am saying. They should have waited until maybe this year and said yes we have a new platform (console whatever) coming more details will be revealed later this year. Just my opinion we will see when the announce it and how they market it if they are serious about their attempt to be taken serious again in this market.
Nintendo had to announce the NX when it did otherwise because shareholders were going to ask if Nintendo was going to stop making consoles. I'm sure they would've liked to sit on it for awhile but they had no choice.

Two copies sold? That's not a bomb guys, stop trolling!!!
This is probably going to pass as an excessively dramatic post, but I feel I really have to shake off some feelings about this whole thing.

While I didn't show it on the forum, my reaction to John Harker's former post (right when he posted it, before his own clarification) wasn't exactly calm: nervousness and anxiety. It disappeared after a few seconds, but it's a representation of how much I'm waiting for this thing to actually be unveiled, for it to be showed to the general public, to us. While I'm usually really enthusiastic about discussing on it, ready to rationalise when strange hyperboles ensued (hi MuchoMalo!) or about rumours' sources and whatever (hi 10k :p ), as well as expectations on specific elements of the platform (power, Western support, etc.), I'm also way, way too fixed about thinking to the NX, it's been in my mind for so many months, way too much. And unconscious anxiety increasing when it was announced it would've not been at E3, and the whole wait for the event's announcement, even if there were good "happy gaps" (EG's rumour, BOTW at E3, possibly Hot Chips in a few days...? - not so confident though ), and the NX, again, way too much around the center of my thoughts, between checking threads, news, or just thinking about it while doing completely unrelated things. It's unhealthy, and the decision I've decided to take was something I was toying with for a while, but I believe now it's the right time to do it.

...I'll stop checking GAF/Twitter/any place with recent gaming stuff for at least a few days, but my original plan is to try to "detox" myself until the reveal date is announced as much as possible. I'll do other stuff in the meanwhile (like playing, after all!), I'll probably check out gaming-related stuff anyway due to something I'm working on, but surely no updates on what's going on with NX. The only concession I'll make is to check out PMs pages only here on GAF and Twitter once every few days in order to see if people are contacting me whatever reason they have to. I'll read what Hot Chips brings anyway as an exception, but after that (if I endure this period of "detoxificaton") I'll go back to the plan just mentioned. Hopefully, I'll feel better when I'm back. Also, I hope we don't really have to wait until November like Nintex speculated (seriously, no Nintendo, no).

Too many words, I reckon. Again, I'll check PMs here on GAF and on Twitter anyway, so you know how to contact me.
For a while, though...See you (hopefully very) soon.

Good decision.

We lost Mpl90.
We are nowhere near Wii-levels of insanity but we are already starting to loose people.
I expect NeoGAF to shrink at 18 (or 19 if you include Tyler) active users before next Nintendo Direct.

Ok, at this point, Gaf should be adding some rules to their existing ones. Insiders get a quotum of stuff they have to leak. If they fail to meet said quotum, they get banned! Else, what use is there for these insiders anyway?! Put out or get out! It's the only way to keep insanity in check. You know it, i know it, the pope knows it. Instead of going after the fake insiders, go after the REAL insiders. It's because they refuse to leak, that we get these idiots pos(t)ing as insiders causing mass hysteria! I mean, 10k can't help it, he's just a victim of society. Just like SMD, who is now living inside a web of insanity and talking Klingon backwards in his video's. We now have people banning themselves (Mpl90), jumping off the cliff because Gaf fails to take action. Are we, stupid non-insiders, going to stand for this? Fuck your NDA, fuck your NWA! I say! Take it like a man, or woman. With great power comes great responsability, it is your destiny to leak shit. People all over the world are losing their minds (thank God for the few sane ones like me, keeping a cool head) just because you don't want to break your NDA? Puh-lease.

I mean this with the greatest of intentions and with as much respect as possible...

Get a life, dude.

Video games are an incredibly amazing hobby and currently the only one I can claim as an active hobby in my life, even... But they're not that serious.

Some of you guys need to take a deep breath and go out to watch a movie, eat in a nice restaurant or visit a museum. Or maybe catch some Pokemons with Pokemon Go but seriously, relax and enjoy life ;D

So, any more speculation and tech talk on the NX? The last several pages of this thread have turned into reveal date guesses and 'my feelings, losing sanity, help me!' posts, a general NX thread basically. Miss the tech talk and analysis.

I rather want to know what it can do, the tech talk is just good to know what games it can handle, but thats a bit boring compared to what it can do. Because we already have ps4 for that stuff and we can compare it with that(a bit lower).

I'm talking about
AR, projector, base station,... things like that. But also what kind of software it would have.

I'm a bit astonished about all these threads about new systems etc, before the system is oficially announced (or "properly leaked"). I remember the crazy Wii U thread and I have to admit that it was fun sometimes with the crazy guesses or hopes of the people but sad others (mainly with the people that was too involved emotionally with the brand and had high hopes with the power of the machine).

This is why I said my congrats the other day, I didn't think this kind of threads where almost anything relevant happens could have more than 100+ pages.

End of the offtopic.
