@DomsPlaying @BombosMedallion @ArcadeGirl64 Tomorrow is going to be so busy for me

Daniel Ahmad
‏@ZhugeEX
@DomsPlaying @BombosMedallion @ArcadeGirl64 I can't handle RDR, AMD, Microsoft, Nintendo and work all in one day

Does he mean it will be tomorrow or is he just guessing?

 

[Lord Ghirahim]

I'd like to know the platform's actual name tomorrow.

 

[Thraktor]

Interesting for sure.

What about for the dock and/or SCD ?

I'm still of the opinion that all the non-trivial* computational hardware (i.e. CPU/GPU) will be contained in the body of the handheld unit, hence the RAM will also be contained entirely within the handheld.

I also don't think Nintendo is going to implement the SCD patent (at least not in the way people think).

*The dock could conceivably have a small processor on-boad to handle background downloads onto an attached hard-drive, etc, but it would be trivial in the sense that it wouldn't actually be used to run games on.

While we wait for something, or nothing, to happen on the NX front....

IMHO, this was the best looking console to play Nintendo games, ever.

I really wish Nintendo would work with Panasonic again (for the NX generation).
Their M2 prototype shells (circa 1995-1996) looked pretty sweet.

 

[MuchoMalo]

Was that the 3D printed NX controller?

I still think that all of the insiders who confirmed that had it mistaken with the description of the NX unit without the controllers attached.

Man, really? Even back then, I thought that shit was fugly.

The sexiest Nintendo console has honestly got to be the original Wii. So elegant, so simple.

 

[The Last One]

It's almost 6 am over there.

Man, I'm trying to stay out of this crazy town and you're all getting me excited.

I hate all of you crazy motherfuckers.

 

[Father_Brain]

Exclusive: NX will be no less than THREE cereals in one, wow! The third cereal is a new IP from Retro Studios. There's also talk of a higher-priced whole-grain SKU, but I am unable to get more than secondhand confirmation of this.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Omg I think I'm about to cry. I go lay down for a couple of hours and I wake up to see 10 new pages here.

I'm like holy shit SOMETHING must've happened and then I check Emily's twitter to see the AMAZING news!

Now I've read all 10 pages and see Alberto said he's guessing not Friday?!?!!!! Omg I'm shaking so much. I can't believe how close we could be!

 

[DMONKUMA]

Wait what's AMD and Microsoft doing tomorrow?

 

[marmoka]

If tomorrow happens to be the day, will people be angry with Emily because Emily was right after all?

Everyone showed the darkness within today.

Hah

Time to rebuy a WiiU and 10 games then

 

[Skittzo0413]

Come on, I'm way too busy tomorrow

If you take a sick day I'll sign off on a doctor's note stating you are having a psychotic breakdown.

Spoiler

No I'm not a doctor

I was really planning this week to be a productive one. No joke GAF stole a lot more time than I was anticipating.

Easily the best week I've spent on GAF all year long though. So no complaints here regardless of the outcome.

You heard it here first peeps, Skittzo0413 is offering to purchase everyone an NX.

 

[JimJamJones]

Potential NX news and the trailers for RDR2 and Logan.

Tomorrow is going to be crazy.

 

[BD1]

Classic Shocking Alberto drive by

[Milly Osworth]

Well, Emily Rogers just tripled down on "big NX news still coming this week."

It's happening!! Me tomorrow at work:

 

[LordKano]

RDR2 and NX reveal announcement the same day ? God, that would be the best day of the year.

 

[Avixph]

It's almost 6 am over there.

So how long until the Nintendo execs wake up?

 

[Nirolak]

All right, since it's clear this thread is only about one thing:

1.) If Emily Rogers is wrong on this one, as judged at the end of Friday, we're prohibiting future Emily Roger posts and discussion.
2.) This thread will also get shut down and you'll have to wait for actually believable new news on the system in order to have a new thread, or wait until Nintendo's fiscal call on the 26th.

 

[Colonel Mustard]

Lol. Total BS

They should pull a (EOL) Dreamcast move. 'Buy 5 full-price NX games, get the HW for $50!'

Spoiler

I think the DC deal was 10 games though...it's how I got my second one back in the day.

 

[Genio88]

Potential NX news and the trailers for RDR2 and Logan.

Tomorrow is going to be crazy.

Not gonna happen tomorrow, Friday is the day, thankfully we have already Red Dead 2 trailers to calm our hype down

 

[KingSnake]

NX and chill.

[Nosgoroth]

Raising Happening DEFCON level to 2, then.

 

[NateDrake]

Wait what's AMD and Microsoft doing tomorrow?

Earnings report, I think.

 

[Morfeo]

Man, really? Even back then, I thought that shit was fugly.

The sexiest Nintendo console has honestly got to be the original Wii. So elegant, so simple.

Definitely. Best and best-looking modern console!

Buy what would happen if she's correct?

 

[Malus]

Can I marry her?

She's married to the rumor game bby.

I do not endorse Roboleon's post and in fact think he's a terrible person.

bahaha

 

[CharminUltra]

NX and chill.

20 minutes in and she gives you this look...

[Quintin DM]

Man if it is this week I gonna have to call in sick for work or something lol.

 

[Ladekabel]

I remember when everybody was so sure we'll get something yesterday. It was nothing. Not falling for the hype again.

Spoiler

Totally falling for the hype again...

 

[cyba89]

I feel like this thread crossed into another dimension. There's no doubt. only hype now. Hold me GAF.

 

[Nirolak]

Buy what would happen if she's correct?

We'd have a thread about the NX reveal.

End of friday in Japan?

Before I got to bed, so it will be very generously into Saturday in Japan.
