New console's name is actually Currant.

Nintendo's E3 Conference:
-Miyamoto comes up on stage and presents a bowl full of currant berries.
-Audience is baffled.


Microsoft and Sony manage to find a knock-off bowl of berries several years after the run-off success of Currant. "Hardcore" gamers upset.

I think Miyamoto will be dressed as a currant berry.

No fucking way. Im just saying. R700, high end? tri-core 3.6GHZ, 1080P native titles, Pokemon MMO, 1.5GB ram, and to top off the crazy, better online system than current XBL?

Thats some downright damn near perfect execution right there, they would get ports from even the PS4 and XB720 as it would at least be within range of them for playable multiplats, and it would have a killer app to add to Smash, Mario and oh yea...GTAV?


Fuck outta here. Cmon now. Its a wishlist. I dont doubt some of it is real but there is some serious embellishing going on. Nintendo aint never been that smart in their lives.

- Uses a custom IBM triple-core CPU running at 3.6GHz per core
- The development kit contains 1gb RAM, but Nintendo have hinted that the console will actually have 1.5gb
- Nintendo will be releasing games that will run 1080p natively. Sources say that with Nintendo’s art style and the poewer the system, the games look ‘stunning’.
- The system does run on AMD R700 card, but the architecture is slightly different and the clock speeds are much higher.

The problem I have with the Cactus rumors btw, as I mentioned in the other thread, is that all the games he would have seen in a reel would have been labeled on screen. So it doesn't make much sense that he seemingly cant tell certain games apart.

The Cactus rumours really don't sound all that outrageous at all. What makes me slightly dubious is that he doesn't talk at all about how the screen is used in games or whatever. Surely a digest reel would highlight that stuff to a certain extent, but he offers no examples.

The 360 is a tri core 3.2 GHz with 512mb of RAM. A high end R700 series card, 400Mhz boost on the CPU and extra GB of RAM is not even close to an "out there" prediction. The stuff he said about touch screen haptics and the game stuff is why you should be questioning it.

Well the arm cannon sounds about right but does he have a sword attack? Haven't play them in awhile.

Clearly the Smash universe is in "Paradise" after the defeat of Tabuu and they can fight in peace now. Makes sense...right? Okay not really but that's how I would see it.

I'm thinking the spiritual successor to Wii Resort will be Nintendo Paradise. And SSB will take place there. Yeah, that's it.

That SMW3 rumor kind of excites me but other than that, exhausted ideas being recycled and nothing that really intrigues me. All rumors of course and will probably be refuted. For all we know it could just be a very well-played troll.

Not that I'm believing in Cactus' rumors but Wii for example had many pre-launch trailers where the games weren't labeled. You know, those trailers with people having fun with some quick cuts of the games thrown in.

...Paradise?

Doubtful but interesting choice.

No seriously what kind of theme would you have to run with for that kind of title?

Metal Gear sounds pretty out there to me as far as the rumors go, since Konami has implied they're not showing anything from Kojima Productions at E3.

Well, except the KojiPort titles that is.

I talked to some friends about the possibilities of an open world Mario a few years ago. I thought it would never come true....

Now, what would you say to an open world online multiplayer Mario?

I don't know why people get excited about some of these third-party "reveals." Pretty obvious that third-party titles are going to be ported to whatever can handle them. N6 will get Resident Evil, GTA, etc., but they're not going to be exclusive, and Nintendo's not going to pay for any exclusive content, which would be timed anyway.

or maybe he's just looking at footage that's going to be used in a reel and not the final edited version.

Still don't believe. There are just too many games. Too good.

But more seriously, I just know that these rumours are going to be so far from the eventual truth I just want to avoid getting disappointed. Safer to write them off now.

These are the kinds of lists we all wish were true but it really reads nothing more than a fanboy wishlist.

Now if by some billion to one odds it actually ends up being true, well.....

Same here. One of my favorite ideas that Mario could implement. You guys don't know how much I'm having to suppress the hype for this rumor.

Please, no more Mario games for two years. I am so sick of Mario.

Nintendo needs to use their energy to rebuild their other franchises.

I'm certainly not saying that it will happen, but i'm not going to be surprised if it does. KojiPro's E3 vid is what got me thinking about it again. This popping up seemed so random

I will never have a current iteration of Crystalis, will I?

Anyway, much of those rumour lists seem to be well-thought out wish lists. Some of the stuff is reasonable, but other stuff is a little out there.
