I mean, you're welcome to your opinion and all but I mean...
Yikes.
No, because those that are savvy with electronic tech and know what is currently available, mass producible and cheap enough will understand we haven't had any of those ideas that fit those criteria since Wii remote / VR. And VR is not exactly cheap.
Rösti;208525476 said:The SCDs I find the most reasonable, but with Nintendo you'll never know so it could be something really exotic like a system focused on TEPS or big data, or a console with a powerful FPGA. That's only suggestions of course. In one way or another, SCDs very much seem like something that would go well with Nintendo's image.
The SCD patent describes this.
Maybe the rumor about Nintendo adding VR is true?
That may very well be true, but that patent will most likely be issued (full) this month. I've spoken to the inventor, and he's very excited about it.Patents don't get implemented in products for years if at all.

While I don't expect any greater news from that I do expect shareholders to ask quite a few questions about NX. If Mr. Kimishima is going to continue with vague answers, I cannot imagine a very cheerful meeting. Hopefully we get some kind of NX news, but Mr. Miyamoto's comments don't exactly fill me with joy.
Human Amiibo.

Im betting on AR. It could be pretty amazing. As i said in my postWell I imagine "We're going to hold an event in September where we'll detail NX" would probably be a decent amount of info.
Also what about the puck patent with the projector and camera and the patent to map touch to real objects and stuff? Really wonder if they'll got for some form of AR.
This one is a bit more out there but:
Advanced AR
Some kind of advance in AR in a way which makes it affordable and fun, like NX mobile platform comes with glasses which give you an augmented view. I imagine playing pokemon and actually seeing the pokemon in real life battle would be pretty amazing. Or Yugioh or something and having an actual card battle, but a Magic: the Gathering game where you see the battle taking place in real time. Maybe even allow people with said AR glasses or NX portable to also watch these battles, then it can bring back table top gaming/social interaction in a huge way, which we know Nintendo is keen on. And for the console AR glasses could do something as simple as display communication chatter or something or a small hud which comes up if you glance at it, or any number of things.
Its something which could also work outside of just gaming, like a google glasses done right, in a more mainstream, simple direction ala Nintendo.
remember people, this is the guy that was keeping double dash a secret because he thought other devs were gonna copy it because the double car seat was so brilliant.
this is the NX controllerI hope when they unveil the NX this fall through a live press conference, they reveal it's an empty glass case because it's purely an idea.
This is the only Nintendo E3 keynote I had ever attended. Everyone in the room was confused.
BELIEVE
Puu?I hope we get another weird name like Wii out of this.
What company per chance....?I know people literally let go from a Nitendo-affiliated studio because Nintendo didn't want contract employees to know what NX was. The game they were working on wasn't even done.
Nintendo don't play.
"We have not been able to launch it as a commercial product because we could not get it to work as we expected and it was of narrower application than we had originally thought," he told investors. According to Iwata's estimates, approximately 90 out of 100 people were able to use the Vitality Sensor without a hitch, though he (thankfully) requires that it work with "1,000 of 1,000 people." However, he admitted "but [since we use the living body signal with individual differences] it is a little bit of a stretch to make it applicable to every single person." He'd still love to make the Vitality Sensor a reality "if technology enhancements" allow, but thus far, testing renders it "insufficient as a commercial product."
YOu asked what hasn't been invented for gaming yet.
You didn't say there hasn't been any big inventions lately besides the wiimote and VR.
But I would also disagree with the latter statement because, in between those, Nintendo brought glasses-free 3d to gaming. It brought off-tv play for a games console with lag-free wireless streaming of games to a touchscreen on a game controller that also had an NFC reader, camera, stereo speakers and tv remote etc on it.
I just hope western publishers aren't in the same boat.
One of Nintendo's patents (Eye Tracking Enabling 3D Viewing on Conventional 2D Display) incorporates that: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=848738Smell production?

Breath of the Wild, a game that is shaping up to be perhaps one of Nintendo's biggest AAA games ever, uses neither. If that's not proof Nintendo's modern gimmicks have failed to catch on, I don't know what is.

Rösti;208526100 said:Also, the SCDs don't have to be ready day one, they can be released sometimes after launch once the initial hype has deflated. The SCDs are in my opinion a clever way to rather easily upgrade a console.
Wait, doesn't Breath of the Wild actually use both?

I am betting the farm on one of two things, or both combined.
Supplemental Computing Device (SCD)
Perhaps theyve perfected it and then it makes complete sense to sell a system as weak as Xbone for 199 because you can give gamers the options of enhancing their own experience by as much as they want. Perhaps using PC like settings to determine the fidelity of your game based on what kind of SCD youre using. Then all the rumors would make sense. Even the handheld could possibly offset some physics/AI and other things to servers/ PnP as they stated, Id imagine having fully animated, semi interactive sky boxes with hundreds of things going on, or a really intricate night time or day time sky, more intricate weather systems etc.
Thatd be a real revolution and it could work for both. Could be why some leaks have said its pretty impressive, and others have said not so much.
It's weird when people still call Nintendo controllers/consoles gimmicks when they're the ONLY ONES trying to do something fresh. Like there's no scale from mundane to interesting features in the industry anymore, it's just "controller with 4 color buttons and some sticks" or "GIMMICK."
Let'shope the surprise isn't as terrible as the gamepad.Nice, so there are still surprises left
Bring it on Nintendo!
It's 2 wii u's duct taped together isn't it?

Probably some software OS ideasThey're still working on ideas with less than nine months until launch? Yeah, I don't see this thing launching in March.
