From the Associated Press:

"In terms of NX, there's an idea that we're working on," said "Super Mario" and "Donkey Kong" creator Shigeru Miyamoto through a Japanese translator. "That's why we can't share anything at this point, and I don't want to comment on the other companies. If it was just a matter of following advancements in technology, things would be coming out a lot quicker."

 

[dragonzdogma]

Nice, so there are still surprises left
Bring it on Nintendo!

 

[Oni Link 666]

Holograms.

 

[……forgetit]

Terrifying

 

[Calm Mind]

Holograms

EDIT: Damn it Oni Link 666

 

[Zalman]

I'm shocked they are working on an idea.

 

[DrWong]

Gimme teh gimmick!

:]

 

[Sandfox]

I'm ready for real life Pokemon.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Sounds more like a matter of negotiations and non disclosure agreements. Might be some partnerships and acquisitions going on.

 

[Josh5890]

I remember Iwata mentioning something about not wanting to announce it too early and give their competitors a chance to match it.

 

[Enduin]

It's happening.

[MilkBeard]

Maybe the rumor about Nintendo adding VR is true?

 

[TheCongressman1]

Of course, gamepad needs another screen. Should have seen it the first time around.

 

[James Scott]

I've liked gyro, touch, and their previous innovations.
Hope this works out for them and consumers

 

[Brian_FETO]

A hologram with a touchscreen in the middle

 

[SOR5]

Miyamoto and idea in the same sentence is more if a wildcard these days then a guarantee of quality

Hope its good or at least isn't convoluted

 

[Kurdel]

I hope we get another weird name like Wii out of this.

 

[CanUKlehead]

Props to NCL for beimg a company that can still keep things a secret, even if I have low expectations.

 

[thuway]

Please don't let this be related to any sort of Amiibo figurines or "quality of life" or Cell phone integration. I'll be there day 1 for 1080p Zelda .

 

[aBarreras]

NX are something you inject on your veins confirmed

 

[sixteen-bit]

Gimme teh gimmick!

:]

Sunsoft's Gimmick 2 for launch

 

[liquidtmd]

In terms of NX, there's an idea

I don't know why but after the day I've had, I physically laughed out loud hard when I read this

 

[PSqueak]

This sounds like they don't want to spoil what the gimmick is going to be, and also sounds like the gimmick is pretty significant in defining the console.

This could go either way.

 

[MilkBeard]

Let us introduce, the Nintendo PiiU. It accurately reproduces the smells for what is on screen.

Comes packed with Poopy Mario Bros.

 

[captain_skyhawk]

Proper online network incoming

Edit: 64 digit friend codes for increase secruity

Mii's will have a full range of eye expressions like link in wind waker.

 

[Neoxon]

At this point, I'm just tired of speculating. Hopefully we'll get a date for the reveal in the near future.

 

[Sou Da]

The NX isn't real mate, it never was. You're chasing butterflies.

 

[Kal-El814]

This will be about as exciting as the Gamecube controller's digital shoulder click.

 

[Sandfox]

Miyamoto and idea in the same sentence is more if a wildcard these days then a guarantee of quality

Hope its good or at least isn't convoluted

I really doubt the it's his idea.

 

[God Dayumm]

Hopefully NX is an operating system that I can install on my PC and other devices

 

[BD1]

Who the hell knows at this point. I still think there may be some AR type stuff built into the console, but we're all guessing

 

[FZZ]

The surprise is gonna be dumb

People might love it

But I bet it'll be dumb

 

[orioto]

i damn hope they're not still "working on it" .. It sounds liek they're not sure yet it will work lol..

 

[yoonshik]

Maybe the rumor about Nintendo adding VR is true?

VR is a known idea.

 

[Salty Rice]

Cant wait for the next garbage gimmick Miyamoto tries to invent the wheel again.

 

[fhqwhgads]

Can't wait to find out what it is so I can live through 5 years of people complaining about how useless it is and how the console will be better off without it

 

[TI82]

"we weren't prepared for a second round of console updates so we are scrambling to keep up, again"

 

[Alienous]

If it were going to be anyone they'd be the ones to somehow do holograms. There's already a way people have achieved that effect using a regular phone.

 

[randomengine]

Hopefully NX is an operating system that I can install on my PC and other devices

Smells like port-begging

 

[Ivan 3414]

The surprise is gonna be dumb

People might love it

But I bet it'll be dumb

Just like dual screens were dumb and motion controls were dumb

 

[quackamole]

Ehhh yeah. Good luck with that gimmick.

 

[MilkBeard]

Maybe they panicked when they caught wind of the rumors of updated systems.

 

[Reverend Funk]

shoe controllers

 

[JMY86]

Proper online network incoming

Now that would be a novel idea for Nintendo.

 

[Boney]

I'm so ready

 

[Rodin]

Cant wait for the next garbage gimmick Miyamoto tries to invent the wheel again.

Miyamoto isn't involved with the NX development.

 

[73V3N]

QoL

 

[The Silver]

Controller with no ubttons is real, Miyamoto gained

 

[randomengine]

Maybe they panicked when they caught wind of the rumors of updated systems.

I highly, highly doubt it.

 

[outunderthestars]

Gaming executive working on stuff. Truly shocking stuff there.
