I'll believe it when I see it. Show me you havent lost your ideas and ambitions Nintendo. Impress me again.
Doesn't that refer to the 100 billion yen expectation, though?
EDIT: As I thought XD
80s? Xbox One launched in late 2014 where I live, I heard some people got it a bit earlier than that :/This ain't the '80s, boy. I wouldn't rule out a 2017-release, but no matter what the NX is the difference in release date will not be that big. This is a generational switch; I'd say a few weeks difference between territories, at the most.
Lol. I understood that reference.Nah, it's; The Amiibo, The.
I think Fire Emblem is more likely personally
Have to disagree
While an FE anime is certainly a likely possibility. I still think Splatoon is more likely.
So I was right and they're not releasing the NX in 2016 all along.
Yeah, I wondered that too. Also, 詳細 has multiple meanings. It could also mean "more information".I don't get why serkan put details between "", since there's no trace of that in the original article. Still, maybe it's better if someone with good Japanese knowledge translates that bit of the (short, anyway) article.
reading it back, i think the reason why serkan put that double inverted commas because in the article, it doesn't explicitly tells what the detail is.
The translator added those quotes himself... they're not present in the original article. I think he meant to quote what was said exactly from the article and not to emphasize it.
It's basically the same thing Iwata said last year and that Kimishima has said several times since he became President, that they will talk about NX in 2016.
Nintendo isn't about to drop a huge bomb about a 2016 confirmed release in an article like this. They're withholding further details until a time of their choosing. I wouldn't necessarily read too much into it yet.
3) Kimishima claims the expansion to smartphones and theme parks, but also to movies and TV animes (via character licensing) is progressing.
It's time for a full Kid Icarus anime by Shaft.
What if a mainline 3D Mario that manages to be different from both 3D World, Galaxy and SM64?
I, for one, think Nintendo IP is a gold mine for licensing. In for a new Fire Emblem anime.
I mean, shit, I would make a yearly pilgrimage to Nintendo museum or amusement park.
I think the NX deets will hit when they launch the first mobile game, because that's when they also launch the new account system. Would make sense for them to be like "and this new account works with NX, here's some details."
Hmm. I may be reading it wrong but I think the NX won't be coming out until 2017 but the announcement/revealing, or whatever you want to call it will be either at E3 or at the Tokyo Game Show this year.
My money is March 2017 in Japan and holiday 2017 rest of the world for the NX.
I believe the number one issue with the WiiU has been price. Nothing has damaged it's sales more.
The first priority for NX should be getting it at $250 or even $200. Releasing 3 years on from xb one should mean they can deliver something of a similar power at a good price point.
I always thought 2016 was overly-ambitious for an NX release. Maybe first half of 2017, but releasing this year could really hamper any kind of 3rd party support they have because of short window for dev time.
This doesn't rule out 2016 for an NX release, but "details" make it sound farther out than that.
If the NX isn't dropping in 2016... i expect a lot of mobile games this year to make up for it.
Hopefully their investors meeting in February has these new NX details Kimishima is talking about.
Xenoblade anime. Make it happen, Nintendo!
How is Nintendo gonna survive then?
Splatoon Anime pls
it's in this sentence
edit: oh wait i think i misunderstood your post.... haha

Hopefully should some details, as Alistair Roo mentioned, come during the Third Quarter Financial Results Briefing on February 3 (JST).
Anime? Kid Icarus, with the Uprising cast, has a lot of material for one. Fire Emblem adaptations could also be written as animes, like an anime for Marth's story or something like that.
Splatoon is also a good franchise for a TV show but I imagine it being more of a light hearted comedy cartoon.
Pikmin would be cool for a Pixar movie or something like that. It has cute characters, possible sad moments and opportunity of lessons for kids and stuff like that.
So I was right and they're not releasing the NX in 2016 all along.
I think if the NX were to release in 2016 they would've said something about it by now.
Just looking at what software is currently scheduled for WiiU/3DS in Q1, it's hard to imagine some form of NX not hitting in 2016. They are blowing their load way too early otherwise.
On a side-note, we know Pikimin 4 has been in the finishing stages of development for quite awhile, maybe they are holding off release to coincide with a television show perhaps? The Miyamoto-helmed pikmin short films seemed more like test releases than one-off projects. Also, the touch-screen gameplay update to Pikmin 3 seems odd in retrospect, maybe it was developed as a feedback measure to begin work on a touch-screen focused sequel for NX (which heavily focuses on that input if patents are to be believed).
They better be serious about NEW ideas.
No more New Super Mario Bros please. No more slight additions (i.e. Mario Kart 9) or reinventing traditions in a totally predictable way (A Link Between Worlds). I want something I can't imagine - this is what you're good at Nintendo, it's when you've been your most successful and critically acclaimed (Wind Waker, Galaxy, Metroid Prime, the Wii, Wario Ware etc.). Whilst some of you might say these creations leant on the past, yes they did, but only very slightly. The success of the 3DS became far too paint by numbers in all of their franchises contemporary iterations (except perhaps SM3DL...).
That sounds a bit strange. Of course, Kimishima wasn't going to share what NX details he's going to share in an interview before the official announcement
If it's launching this year, there's a decent chance he'll confirm it at the Q3 results briefing in early February.
And Kimishima's end-of-year letter talked about NX, but didn't mention either Wii U or 3DS at all. That seems to be the case here as well, and while not a smoking-gun confirmation, it seems pretty telling.
I sure hope details means...a release date as well. Would be pretty damn shitty if it turns out it's not coming at all this year. Which would surprise me.
I'll believe it when I see it. Show me you havent lost your ideas and ambitions Nintendo. Impress me again.
I
Ah, good point. That letter is the proverbial smoking arm cannon, and we are all Metroids waiting to be temporarily frozen from excitement.
If somehow NX won't launch in 2016 then formally announcing it last year was quite a big mistake.
Also E3 2015 is even worse in hindsight.
Worried seeing the words "details" and "NX" pretty close of each other. We don't need details, we need a blowout of information, a megaton of it!!... Freaking NX will not release this year isn'it?? How is Nintendo gonna survive then?
They would have announced their big fall 2016 releases at E3 if there weren't something brewing. They had no problem showing off Mario Maker or Zelda in 2014 and Smash in 2013.
I'm sure they at least planned to release NX this year, but there's always the possibility that their incompetent R&D can't keep up with the plans. Nintendo's become the masters of delaying in the last few years after all. The new account system was delayed too last minute (so a 2017 release would also mean that you mustn't expect too much betterment from Nintendo on the NX). Starfox might be a strategical delay now, after they found out they had to delay NX internally and are now left with another year of nothingness that has to be filled somehow. In particular in July even less people would care about that trash heap Starfox Zero, if an NX blowout happened at E3 in June.
Fire Emblem anime confirmed, you know it.
Mario Maker was originally scheduled for 2015 prior to E3. So that one was within the "we want to mainly show software launching within one year" rule.
They never even specified that it would come out this year, just that they were going to talk about it. I don't get why people expected the NX to be suddenly out or something. Saw a lot of posts arguing that buying a Wii U despite wanting the games on it was pointless because the NX would be out very soon. Which is a different argument from yours that also makes no sense to me.
I think they are very cautious about saying anything related to NX this early in the year. Many (ok, probably not that many) people just got Wii U this holiday season. They will be quite sad.
But this is Nintendo. It could easily slip into next year.
But it was always going to come out in the fall (September) because it was the 30th anniversary game.
Since 1996.Nintendo anime confirmed
What a time to be alive
