You mean dock? It will cloud sync, same as wii u gamepad.
LOL!! Sorry, was being dumb about the duck thing. Cloud docking sounds awesome!

In a world filled with a bajillion different tablet devices, how are they going to sell this to people?
If Nintendo pushes this thing as a decent tablet replacement I think the audience for it will definitely come.
If it is a handheld first and foremost, I'm worried it will only appeal to Japan. Who outside of Japan is really eager to buy a handheld gaming device with 50-60 euro games? I think that audience is gone completely.
There's a significant amount of console players that don't want anything to do with handheld gaming, and vice-versa (moreso in Japan for the latter).You act as if all console players are console-only, and vice versa. That's not true. Plus, if it's cheap enough, why not?
No, I mean when one of the kids decides to undock the NX and go play it somewhere by themselves.You mean like the Wii U pad? Because that's exactly what this would be. The main power console would have a screen and the controllers that connect wirelessly wouldn't. Same thing.
I hope we get a 4G Antenna in it too. For true mobile gaming.
Just see it as their new handheld first and foremost. Only this handheld has a TV out feature to appease the console gamers that feel shafted. Nintendo is likely done with the console race.
So what type of nm process does Tegra X1 have?
Okay day one....unless the controller's that detach from the handheld only have one thumbstick each.
I can't play games with one thumbstick anymore. My only gripe about the 3ds. Can't do it again.

USB type-C seems the most likely.I wonder if this thing will have USB 3.0 slots and a SD card slot. Really doubt they will launch with 128GB of internal storage.
I actually have thought about that too.. If Nintendo becomes ambitious enough to not go after PS4 / XB1 but iPhone / Android phones instead then that'd be amazing.

So NX should be compared to handhelds and not consoles? From my understanding, NX is suppose to be a hybrid, but I feel like the console side will be severely lacking. As a handheld, NX will "dominate" as its only competing with mobile.

Guys, guys.
I know what the SCD is!
I know what Nintendo will use for their cloud!
X1 is 20nm. X2 would be 16nm
The only problem to me, is that Nintendo is often very invested in creating experiences they believe to be better suited to the hardware they're developing for. The thing is, I enjoy playing "console level" games on handhelds, but I don't think I'd want to play games specifically designed for handhelds on a tv. I love handhelds and have owned almost every Nintendo handheld system, but I'd prefer they focus on a console approach.
The best example I can think of off the top of my head is Luigi's Mansion 2. Bringing that to the 3DS meant making the game more suitable for a pick up and play style of gameplay. On this alleged console, I'd want them to commit to the TV-using console aspect more than the handheld aspect.
If this rumor is true, Nintendo will basically be combining their Wii U and 3DS resources into one platform, and I would imagine the developers who make games on 3DS and Vita currently would transition to this platform, honestly, this system as it is could get a TON of exclusive games if you think about it, and it's not a pipe dream to think so. It would basically mean the platform would be the next PS2 in terms of exclusive titles, but yeah it wouldn't play nice with a lot of devs.
Some detective work there
I'm pretty pessimistic about this. Hopefully the second screen stuff doesn't cause it to be too expensive for what you get. No BC is pretty much a deal breaker, as well
A nintendo platform can never be the PS2 when it comes to exclusives software .
This going to get most of the Japanese games but they will never drop PS4 support for just NX.
I think it's possible for NX to pull it off now without it being a detriment. It was harder for Vita to do it back when it came out.I hope we get a 4G Antenna in it too. For true mobile gaming.
Okay, you guys are getting carried away now
Taking on Android and iPhones phones? Yeeeesh
How is this thing going to do multiplayer when you are out and about. The vita had a version that worked on cell networks how did that work out? You think people are going to add this to their plan and pay more money on a bill they already want to be cheaper? Unlikely so multiplayer when you are out is probably going to be limited at best.
Media Create tells me that the PS4 often has trouble keeping up with a Nintendo handheld from 2011.
I'm OK with the idea, but there are still a lot of missing links here. Still not completely convinced this is true.
Imagine Nintendo purposely spreading false info as leaks and surprise everyone come reveal.
I think people are really underestimating the potential allure of this. I don't have any particular ideas, but I bet it's the type of idea Nintendo could run and make a killer app with. The new Wii Sports. Not to mention the possibility of having a third player using the touch screen (which sounds cumbersome, but not impossible).They weren't talking about online multiplayer. Local multiplayer, anywhere basically. Detachable controllers.
