That "dev" might want to begin preparing a metal suppressor and a large dumpster. Or stop giving the team cardiac arrest. Good lord at this mess.

Ah so it is real.
 
Well now things are getting interesting again. A dev is having an AMA over on reddit and says it does not have an oval screen and does have physical buttons.

Does DDR5 even exist?

He said 8GB DDR5. And someone asks if he means GDDR5 and he says no DDR5.


I suspect he is just some random Nintendo fan.
 
If you want to disprove a very convincing fake by citing your own information, you need to at least provide even more convincing proof that your information is correct.

I'd rather this circus keep going than people make their minds up about assumptions/speculation/rumors before the console is even revealed.

I tend to throw out all but the most credible of info, so besides being little ideas to chew on, these "leaks" do nothing for me either way.

EDIT: HAHAHAHAHA They got us! Internet thirst trap claiims another victim. Hoaxes are so elaborate now, I'm surprised people are as accepting as they are.

EDIT 2: Well played Idriss. This dude was laughing at everyone.

I'm not going to comment on legitimacy of this, but doesn't the amount of ram a devkit has differ from what the device will actually have quite often?

Yes, and the actual consoles usually ends up having less than the devkits.

So, panic.

Being the size of the bottom half of a 3DS XL but thicker would be a good size for a controller with a screen on it. Some of it sounds believable. The screen being a companion app thing and not streaming the games like the Wii U seems weird to me, but it would free up some resources I presume.
