Perfect if it's just the handheld this year.
...No Panasonic.
Panasonic provided both the discs and disc drives for the GC, Wii, and Wii U. I believe they also provided the HDMI controller on Wii U as well.

Yes. No disc drive.
I mean, if we're talking about the handheld element, there's really nothing surprising at all about that.

Yes. No disc drive.
Info is NX launching "this year", as some thought it would be a 2017 release.

My 64 GB microSD costed me 18. And, obviously, that's not the actual cost to manufacture it.
Re: Pixart
This is one of the most interesting suppliers to me, as they provide the IR camera in the Wii Remote and also provide a wide variety of optical and laser sensors for everything from gesture tracking to pulse detection.
Don't tease me with the vitality sensor...
Hmm... any idea if the n3DS uses them for head tracking?Re: Pixart

Maybe you can download games on your console, then put them on a cartridge so you can play on your handheld.
I wonder how the "hardcore" crowd will react to cartridge based console games?
I'm sure many will assume cartridge=bad

Could just be the handheld unit, but cartridges are rumored to come back based on the patents...No Panasonic.

Do any of the patents have anything involving discs at all?Could just be the handheld unit, but cartridges are rumored to come back based on the patents
Hmm. Not sure. That's just done with a normal (low res) camera. There's no component information on the part itself.

I know that patents aren't representative of the final product but the one that shows a system without an optical drive seems like good enough evidence that console cartridges will return.

What I'd like to see (Not that I'm interested in handhelds) is make the console take cartridges also. Buy one game, play on both. With digital downloads, can download to either system to play.
so much for the people who think it is coming out in 2017.
Some believe the "home console" will be launch in 2017 and this still could be the case.Eh... I thought it was always rumored to launch in 2016. So I didn't think that was any kind of new info.
3rd parties would revolt in face of cartridges though. Nintendo with their ~5 or less GB games wouldn't care as much, but it would categorically block stuff like the next Watch Dogs (as low of chances as Nintendo has getting stuff like that off the bat anyway)
