I don't. If they have a good enough launch line-up plus the home console+portable form factor I could still see it taking off at 300+

To some, the hybrid form factor would be a reason they'd say "all this extra money for shit I'm not gonna use?" just as they did with the Wii U and Kinect on the Xbox one. Sure people will still buy the system, but it won't be a smash hit if the price is too high.

 

[brandonh83]

I'll be shocked if it's over $299.

I feel like it'll be $299, I mean PS4 Pro is only $100 more. $349 as a bundle with Castlevania V or Chrono Trigger 3 would work. But I think $299 will be the base price.

 

[Dagobert Duck]

Get hyped!

A scrubs gif with Nintendo??? Give this man an award!

 

[GinoFelino]

Right now I'm almost as happy Emily Rogers no longer has assholes on Twitter screaming at her as I am for the thing finally being revealed.

In a 3mn video?

The trailer is 3 minutes long. Don't do this to yourself.

Why not throwing Half-Life 3 into the mix?

Man, the amount of people not getting sarcasm/a joke

Yeah this seems about right.

 

[Captain Europe]

I just hope it's not held back by a stupid gimmick that adds nothing to gameplay and inflates the cost

If it does have a stupid gimmick for the love of god let it be optional

Yeah, the only time I found it really useful was in Xenoblade X. Otherwise, I always play with the pro controller, unless that isn't an option.

Speaking of, I hope you can use the pro controller on the NX, it's my favourite controller, its buttons are pretty much perfectly placed, and the battery lasts forfrickinever.

 

[mugwhump]

Just give me 10 seconds of new zelda footage

please nintendo

 

[Painguy]

In a 3mn video?

>7.5 seconds of reggie introducing topic of NX
>5.5 second bites of 30 games flashing 1 after another
>4 seconds of off center shots of NX (we dont have a full view)
>1.5 seconds of entire device
>fades to 1 second of the actual name and logo

 

[AmyS]

Give me a full blown (retail) follow-up to SUB WARS and take my money.

 

[takriel]

Just give me 10 seconds of new zelda footage

please nintendo

you'll get 9.5 seconds and you'll like it

 

[MoonFrog]

Well, going to bed. Alarm is set . Starting the day with NX news and capping it with playing Civ VI. Tomorrow will be cool.

 

[Krowley]

I didn't see this posted:



https://twitter.com/tomphillipsEG/status/788993470702743552

So a glimpse at new Mario is on the books cards.

It wasn't posted I don't think. Nice find, and fits with what I was thinking.

Based on this and Laura Kate Dale's tweets, seems like we will see Zelda and Mario. And I hope that's true.

They can't just show zelda because it will just make the system seem like a portable Wii-U. Zelda isn't new. Zelda is a known quantity.

You only get one chance to make a first impression, and they need to show a new game here. Mario would be perfect.

 

[Morfeo]

Why not throwing Half-Life 3 into the mix?

It was just too obvious to list!

 

[brandonh83]

Speaking of, I hope you can use the pro controller on the NX, it's my favourite controller, its buttons are pretty much perfectly placed, and the battery lasts forfrickinever.

Man I wish I could agree. It's a nice controller but my thumb naturally rests on its X/A buttons rather than Y/B which is what I prefer for jump/attack. I have to reach my right thumb in a bit further than normally to rest it on the Pro controller's Y/B. Other than that it's damned nice.

 

[Jonneh3003]

you'll get 9.5 seconds and you'll like it

I would analyse the crap out of that, heck we've done it before with that small reveal at the end of the Twilight Princess HD trailer

 

[evanmisha]

Right now I'm almost as happy Emily Rogers no longer has assholes on Twitter screaming at her as I am for the thing finally being revealed.

I expect their return at 10:03 AM EST

 

[marmoka]

Fairly certain they are joking.

Man, the amount of people not getting sarcasm/a joke

Just in case, hahaha. Some people have irrealistic expectations and disappointment comes.

 

[brandonh83]

Even if I got 3 seconds of a new major Mario title I would absolutely lose it. Lose it lost.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

I don't. If they have a good enough launch line-up plus the home console+portable form factor I could still see it taking off at 300+

what's a good launch lineup? Mario and Zelda? those are massive franchises and I'm sure will cause pockets of the internet like on GAF to go ape shit, but I'm not sure they move the needle with the mass market like they used to. If they have the next Wii Sports (not literally Wii Sports 2, but the equivalent for this hardware) then that's another story.

 

[wbEMX]

Man, the amount of people not getting sarcasm/a joke

Ummmm, I was in on the joke. Sorry if I didn't use a "" or "" emoticon.

 

[crushy]

Best thing I see in this is that FINALLY some NDA's will be lifted and we get away from the rumour fase

 

[Tregard]

The #NX inclusion in the tweet makes me think they're just going with NX as the system name? Seems odd to include NX rather than "Nintendo's next system" or something like that, given how that could cause brand confusion

 

[Hermii]

It wasn't posted I don't think. Nice find, and fits with what I was thinking.

Based on this and Laura Kate Dale's tweets, seems like we will see Zelda and Mario. And I hope that's true.

You only get one chance to make a first impression, and they need to show a new game here. Mario would be perfect.

I disagree. If they show Zelda they will drive the point home that its a portable system that can play full on console games. If they have a clip of someone playing infinate warfare or something in portable mode as well, that would be even better.

 

[KHlover]

How am I supposed to work today with all the hype around? At least I do not have to lose my sleep over it as US guys might do right now.

I feel you. 9:30am here and I already can't concentrate properly anymore. 6 hours of work left and then another 50min until I'm home.

 

[SkywardBeam]

There's been a lot of back and forth over this, whether it was going to be a souped up handheld you can play on your TV or vice-versa. It sounds like it's going to be the latter.

So if it IS be the latter, wouldn't this mean we'll get a proper successor to the 3DS in the (near) future?

 

[Iriscomeback]

you'll get 9.5 seconds and you'll like it

Get ready for that 3 hour GameXplain video!

 

[Metalmarc]

They wont even show the console perhaps they will tease a blurred image like the ps4?

And announce the date of the actual direct at the end of the video, montaged with clips of old games, with only footage of the new zelda.

 

[Morfeo]

Even Nintendo woudnt disapoint this much. Way to conservative list.

Yeah, well trying to keep my expectations in check having been burned before!

I don't see EU:Rome 2 on that list. So it's fake.

This is not a leak, just a minimum list of what to be expected. Rome 2 is another reasonable choice for sure.

You forgot the console exclusive version of Half Life 3.

It was just too obvious to mention.

 

[Bishop89]

lets see if nintendo + retailers feel like screwing us (aus) again..

wii u is still selling launch rrp here..........................................................................................................

 

[Aleh]

NX is a good name so I wouldn't mind. Just hoping they don't come up with ugly things like Wii U or new Nintendo 3DS XL.

 

[AzaK]

I think the discussion about price is too early given that we know nothing about the device still.

But considering the climate for gaming hardware, I don't see it going more than $300. It'll be a hard sell if it goes above that, and especially now that both PS4/XBO are on that price ball park currently, the NX needs to be at a competitive selling price even if it's a new thing because the other devices are still pretty much on their prime.

$299 for a "home console" isn't crazy though, but given how the gaming community judges prices based on processing power nowadays, we'll just have to wait and see.

As they should. If you don't get the tech then you shouldn't carry the price.

 

[Durante]

Somehow I expect this to be the part I predicted where Nintendo announces the NX and we still don't really know what hardware is in it.

(Surprise me Nintendo)

 

[seph1roth]

Ok so...Emily, my apologizes.

Right now Emily will be in her home like Maradona:

"Que la chupen, que la sigan chupando!"

 

[KingSnake]

I expect their return at 10:03 AM EST

Why?

You forgot the console exclusive version of Half Life 3.

That game is never coming out.

Spoiler

NX gets Half-Life 4 at launch!

 

[flipping_heck]

Awesome! I am currently off work and will be ready for this!

Come on Nintendo!

Apart from Super Mario and Metroid that's one hell of a depressing list.

 

[oni-link]

The #NX inclusion in the tweet makes me think they're just going with NX as the system name? Seems odd to include NX rather than "Nintendo's next system" or something like that, given how that could cause brand confusion

Nintendo LOVE brand confusion

They have a DS, a DSi, a 3DS, a 2DS and a New 3DS, no 2DS games, 3DS games that don't work on a DS, DS games that work on 2DS and 3DS, and 3DS games that only work on New 3DS

It will be a miracle if this isn't called the New Super Wii U Pro Cube 64

If they go with NX as the final name it will be a blessed relief

 

[Morfeo]

No Kirby Air ride sequel? Morfel pls.

No need to list the obvious, right?

 

[iFirez]

3pm in the UK right? Exciting times.

 

[Castef]

Sooo... they decided to launch the teaser the very same day the most anticipated trailer of the year hits Internet, and they announce this during the most important TV event of the year?

Off to a good start, Nintendo!

 

[DieNgamers]

It's been nice, guys! The internet will be stormy today

I'm not expecting a console in the classic sense but I am open to whatever they're up to!!

 

[AmyS]

i hope M2 & SEGA are busy behind the scenes, working on Model 3 games for NX like Daytona USA 2 and Sega Super GT

I'll buy 2 of the most expensive NX SKUs if that happens. Not like we'd find out for many months though. Maybe even a year.

 

[Iacobellis]

Something about announcing the announcement of a new console less than a day away via a tweet feels off. Like, it doesn't drum up enough hype to get the media outlets and public at least fully aware of it happening.
