When Mario walks in on you having "alone" time...

Nintendo really needs to improve their sizzle reel making ability since this

THANK GOD!

 

[maxcriden]

lol hope so

I've grown attached to it

"development code name" is in parentheses after NX in the JP tweet, so I guess that's probably not the one.

 

[Dark_AnNiaLatOr]

OMG OMG OMG YES, FINALLY!!!

This is the most heldback load ever for gaf, EVER!!!

FINALLY!

 

[icespide]

Zelda + Beyond Good and Evil are shown I bet

 

[phanphare]

Dude the name is going to leak an hour before reveal LOL

and no one will believe it

 

[Padawan of Windu]

FINALLLLY!!! Praise be to Nintendo!!!! Can't waiiiiitttttt aiiieeeeeee!!!!

 

[Toxi]

Oh thank God. I'm sure it'll be replaced by other nonsense, but at least the long "when will NX be unveiled?" nightmare will be over.

Some mean part of me was hoping it wouldn't be revealed until November.

 

[RareFantasy64]

I dont get it.

A console from nintendo is revealed in a 3 minute trailer? WTF? do they not have confidence in it? seems like a complete minimal way to advertise it. If it was ground breaking an event would be held. It seems they are not trying to embarrasses themselves by showing it in a faceless video.

I believe this is the teaser that will give a date for the proper unveiling

 

[Starchasing]

Oh god, I know we have been waiting forever, but it still hasn't hit me how hype this is gonna be. Considering they branded this as a preview, does that mean it will not go all in on new game announcements meaning we will have to wait even longer for that to happen?

This was wii first video

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1HlhFeRY1gs

Expect something like that

 

[paragonpro]

REVEAL DATE: 1 0 2 0 1 6

REMOVE THE ZEROES: 1 2 1 6

REMOVE THE ONES: 2 6

REMOVE THE 2: 6

6 DIFFERENT REMAKES OF KID ICARUS UPRISING ON NX CONFIRMED

This is it! Its all been leading to this! How were we so oblivious this whole time!?

 

[Etzer]

lol Where are all the people who said Nintendo would NEVER just put a trailer online with a day's notice?

 

[atbigelow]

I dont get it.

The Classic NES was shown off in a short video and people went god damn crazy. It can work fine.

 

[CharminUltra]

Of course Wii is not in the title.

It's gonna be the Nintendo iiW

 

[?oe?oe]

Please don't name it Wii NX

Don't worry, Mii NX here we come!

 

[Cbajd5]

Prepare for disappointment!

 

[Enduin]

Oh thank God. I'm sure it'll be replaced by other nonsense, but at least the long "when will NX be unveiled?" nightmare will be over.

When will Price/Date/Launch lineup/etc be announced.

Hopefully they'll announce when they'll have a full fledged press event to showcase more. But I suspect we'll see some montage footage of the device at home, on the go, some BotW and the name and that's it.

 

[Ashodin]

NINTENDO GOMO

GO MOBILE WITH THE CONSO

I can't wait for the new name!

 

[Twenty7KVN]

WII BRANDING IS DEAD

Thank fucking god.

 

[alr1ght]

Zelda NX to be shown too, apparently

https://twitter.com/LaurakBuzz/status/788903182168690688

Unless it looks vastly superior (or has a great gimmick) to the WiiU version, that seems to be a mistake.

 

[Succinct Verbosity]

Imagine if it's all just 3 minutes of nothing that gives us an indication of what the NX actually is.

Just imagine.

Watch it just be three minutes of giving us the official name and nothing else lol

 

[GregLombardi]

Holy shit. Really?

Is this real life?

The trauma of the rumors will finally end?

HOLY SHIT.

 

[Juanfp]

Finally.

 

[-Horizon-]

Did emily talk about NX specs? I don't remember.

 

[Ashby]

I hope it either starts or ends with a Iwata tribute.

 

[RootCause]

"alongside the look of the device."

Don't like that she used the word device.
I don't want it to be handheld, please...

why not? We need a nintendo handheld.

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

Wish it wasn't just a preview, but I guess its better than nothing.

 

[karma2578]

me tomorrow

 

[BitStyle]

NOTHING CAN STOP ME I'M ALL THE WAY UP



OHHH SHITTTTTTTTTTTTT

Nice! I can live with that

 

[TheChits]

He will never appear again

 

[Spiral Insanity]

Oh my god i made a strange sound when I read the header!

 

[Jerm411]

Well any semblance of good sleep I was banking on just went right out the window....

Haven't been this hyped for something video game related in a long time and now that we're getting tangible info...just can't believe it!!

 

[Mushroomer25]

Does this mean NX might be the final name?

Hard to say. I think Nintendo MIGHT be semi-locked into "NX" from a branding angle at this point. Too much talk, speculation, and official acknowledgement from Nintendo to call it much else. The fact it's a solid console name doesn't hurt either. Being this close to launch makes a branding campaign very tricky.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Why are people surprised by its not using the Wii name?

 

[Ricky Ricardo]

FINAL-FREAKING-LY

WE IN THERE MEN

 

[NESpowerhouse]

When Mario walks in on you having "alone" time...

When Mario walk in on you pleasuring yourself to a console reveal.

 

[Kouriozan]

I'm actually laughing at all the craziness we had to endure until now.
Oh and it's 3 AM now and no way I'll be able to sleep, thanks Nintendo.

[PMS341]

I love Nintendo, and I'm very excited for tomorrow, but I'm crossing my fingers for a good name for the damn thing.

 

[hipsterpants]

wew lads

 

[Cheesehead302]

OH MY GOD GAF GAF I SPEND SOOOOOOOOO MUCH TIMES ON THESE THREADS AND THE ONE TIME I'M RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A COMPETITIVE GAME OVERWATCH WITH MY FRIEND HE TELLS ME ITS HAPPENING. OF COURSE I THOUGHT HE WAS LYING BUT IT'S FINALLY HAPPENING FOR CHRIST SAKE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH AND TOMORROW OH MY GOD

Time to analyze this photo because just right behind Mario, I can sort of see a reflection of something there.

 

[Experien]

ayassssssssssssssssss

I am okay with this.

 

[maxcriden]

They won't ever give specs anyway so this isn't surprising. Let's just hope we see what it is and how it's used, as opposed to just showing games coming for it

Laura said on Twitter:

Hardware specs will not be part of the NX announcement trailer tomorrow but WILL come via press release soon after, 100% before month ends.

-

I don't know what the extent of info they'd give about specs is.

 

[mstevens]

I love Playstation and have no negative feelings about Xbox, but Nintendo reveals are so much more exciting because it could literally be anything. Cannot wait.

 

[Plinko]

What are the odds Zelda looks identical on NX and that is what makes people angry?

 

[DjRalford]

https://twitter.com/nintendo/status/788900045089181696

Video will be 3 minutes long.

11PM JST is 13.5 hours after this post.

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooo

If this is around 14:30 UK time i'll be picking someone up from the airport...DAMMIT!

 

[Armadilo]

tease tomorrow and something bigger for Friday as Friday seemed something was going to go down that day from insiders but not sure

 

[SinCityAssassin]

Wish it wasn't just a preview, but I guess its better than nothing.

You fool. There's news next week too.
