I'll be back from work just in time to watch.

Can't wait for all the tears. Some people's expectations are too unrealistic.

Worst case scenario: it's a phone. Otherwise I'll try to keep my expectations low.

 

[metalslimer]

God the wiiu reveal was horrible. Glad that version of Nintendo is gone.

 

[what-ok]

Just got off of work. Has anyone analyzed this yet?

-what are the circled areas on the left pic?
-the items circled on the right ones are power and volume buttons, right?
-it's the same shaped power input as the Wii U, right?
-I really dig the game cart slot. It's larger than a 3DS slot.
-funny that we have a nunchuck/classic controller port on this thing. It's the same as the new NES pads for the NES mini, yes?
-the only thing I call bullshit on is that LAN port. The last 2 Nintendo systems were Wifi only. Did their devkits have LAN ports as well?
-and what's the two shiny things at the end? They look like Coax numbs...

Looks like a power and volume to me. ????

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

Damn I wonder what would happen to GAF if they named it SNES 64...

On a Serious note would it be possible they name it after one of the older consoles.

GAF will mostly hate even if the system name is Nintendo GAF

 

[Aostia]

Kinda feels unreal to see this thing finally happening, lol

The preview nature of the trailer still doesnt reassure me that is finally happening

 

[Persona7]

Still laughing at this sequence I found on twitter earlier

 

[Peterc]

Yes yes yes. Thanks to Emily, because she was right

 

[Milly Osworth]

What the!!!!!! I wake up to this 🙀🙀🙀🙀🙀

Im at work then damnit!

 

[MulderYuffie]

 

[Memento]

So what are we expecting?

Some "concept introdution" like video? Like the WiiU introduction trailer?

 

[GregLombardi]

The preview nature of the trailer still doesnt reassure me that is finally happening

If Nintendo pulled an FF7 remake (Square December Conference) on the internet, it would burn them to the ground on which Satan walks.

 

[Krowley]

They have to announce a new Mario game, right?

Right?

I think they will.

I think we'll see both Zelda and Mario in the trailer. Maybe one more thing. I don't think they'll go with Zelda only unless the graphics are a massive upgrade over what we've already seen, or unless the gameplay is drastically different. I don't expect either of those to be true.

So we'll see Zelda. A new Mario in 3D, pushing the graphics. And maybe a glimpse of something else.

The WiiU's reveal had a similar length:

I just hope they focus on a single game instead of tech demo shit. Like, reveal this with Super Mario Universe and every-fucking-body will be soiling their pants.

Thanks for reminding me how badly Nintendo dug their own hole with the Wii U brand confusuon with this video.

"The new controller" "The new controller" "The new controller"

 

[abstract alien]

Damnit, I came back in. Ok, on blackout for real this time. See you all in the morning after the show.

If gaf is even up.

 

[Lutherian]

/dead ^o^

 

[Booki]

This better not be just another tablet with on screen buttons as a portable option... I swear to God Nintendo.

The Coax nubs might be debug ports? And the Ethernet port could also be a debug port.

Looks like Wii U devkits had Coax nubs, too.

Still think it's weird a promo-looking picture like that of a devkit would even exist, though.

 

[AdanVC]

No olvides Capitán Todd.

Hahaha! How could I forget it! El GOAT.

 

[SoulUnison]

watch it be named Wii U +

Spoiler

I'm hoping for "Nintendo NeXt" or "Nintendo eXperience."

 

[Bitch Pudding]

 

[Hermii]

People listing things they expect need to actually read the tweets because they tell what will and won't be in the teaser.

1) The final name
2) The physical hardware
3) Zelda

No sizzle reel of upcoming titles, no proof of concept demo game, no Mario, no specs, no price. They'll show off the system and the controllers and they'll show someone playing Zelda with it as a demonstration of 1) how it works and 2) any visual enhancements.

Shocking Alberto mentioned he and Emily were debating if it was gonna be Mario or Zelda shown but the other girl that helped blow the lid off of everything detailed pretty tidily what's gonna happen and she said just Zelda, so I'm gonna keep my expectations at the three things listed above and anything else will just be happy bonuses.

You should spoiler tag this entire post.

 

[Eldainorn]

Fuck yeah finally! Hype train is reaching its limit! CHOO CHOO!!!

 

[Avixph]

Where's this from?

This the first person to post the image here on GAF:

saw this on 4chan, what do you make of it.

 

[hipsterpants]

the only part I don't like about the timing of this reveal is that I have to study when I could just spend hours reading the insanity that's going to follow the reveal

 

[CrazedProfessional]

They would be stupid not to call it the duo.

It communicates their marketing angle perfectly.

 

[BoboBrazil]

Only expectation I have for Nintendo hardware is disappointment. Hope they can turn it around, but based on rumors nope.

 

[Graphics Horse]

They have to announce a new Mario game, right?

Right?

In the 3 minutes? Could imagine they show glimpses of new titles without naming them, like how Mario Kart was shown in the 3DS reveal.

 

[kevin1025]

So what are we expecting?

Some "concept introdution" like video? Like the WiiU introduction trailer?

I'm expecting a minute of introductions, a minute of what their goal with the NX is, and then a minute of teasing shots of the hardware and then a date for the full reveal.

 

[Jim_Cacher]

It's been so long...

 

[Memento]

METROID PRIME 4 IS HERE

 

[MCN]

I'm going to get home tonight after work to a Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer, and an NX trailer.

This is going to be a looooooooooooong day at work.

Also, I always believed in Emily.

 

[Milly Osworth]

I feel empty and numb now that its coming.

 

[Fevaweva]

God I hope the proper reveal is after 6pm or during the weekend. Otherwise I will be at work.

 

[DXB-KNIGHT]

METROID PRIME 4 IS HERE

Not chibi enough

 

[CharminUltra]

CAVE STORY NX CONFIRMED

 

[brandonh83]

And now, you're truly hype

Hear it. Feel it. Deal.

...that was a little too FFXIV

 

[Kathian]

I hope it's based on that Pokemon trailer.

 

[what-ok]

Now what?

 

[SalvaPot]

 

[Joey Ravn]

Day One for me

 

[Speely]

They would be stupid not to call it the duo.

It communicates their marketing angle perfectly.

But the TurboDuo though.

Maybe there's another feature that adds an effective third way of playing...

The Nintendo Tri.

The Nintendo Triforce.

 

[Rubixcuba]

Have we had a response here? I wanna see the receipts

 

[AmyS]

Gimmie MK9 that looks something like this CG artwork using Nintendo's new graphics engine / Vulkan API / Nvidia GPU.

drooooooooooooooooooool.

 

[Psychoward]

Holy shit it's happening

 

[Speely]

Goddamn

 

[ChrisD]

SETTING THE ALARM LET'S GOOOOOOO

oh gosh I'll have like four hours of sleep but it will be worth it just to get rid of all the wondering

 

[Pancake Mix]

Posting possible NX dev kit for new page:

The way that active cooling (?) fits the Wii U design....

This is totally something Nintendo would design. I have faith this is real.
