If a Nintendo console becomes the PS2 of this generation (winning both hardcore and casual) then we might enjoy another golden era not seen since the SNES.

Yes.. first nintendo wii, now nintendo current.. their wii is much stronger now, creates a current.

I think that's the concept behind the brand, as there's a current of media being fed between the network, console and controller. Many quickly assume the name harkens to the current tense meaning of the word.

Another PS2/SNES isn't going to happen.

You know what would troll the other companies really bad?

Most companies now days try to not put numbers on their brands that suggest they are a generation behind the competition. Sony not naming the NGP as PSP2 because its going against the 3DS for example. Well... what if Nintendo says "hey, this is our 6th console, so lets name it the NES-6!" Sony would look at the PS4 blueprints and go "fuck..."

I dunno, the Wii sold pretty good, right?

(or did you mean across-the-board quality titles throughout its lifespan?)

A SNES/PS2 era = having a platform establish market dominance where 3rd party games flourish and enjoys legendary status 1st party support.

I want Ridge Racer 8 for Cafe, classic gameplay, incredible highly-detailed HD graphics.
1080p 60FPS like Ridge Racer 7 on PS3, but better. Launch game. Make it so, NAMCO.

The cactus stuff and rumors flying about are going to drive me mad. If things turn out favorably Nintendo may return to it's top dog status.

CANT HANDLE THIS ANYMORE!

Edit: This is really going overboard haha.

Well what do ya know, I was wrong!



I'm completely wrong, that last point sounds very much like what Cactus described. Nintendo's games reel supposedly includes Teen and Mature games, so the ESRB would have to review the video to make sure it wasn't trying to sell those specific games to little kids.

You're not wrong at all. They rate the games, and it's up to the publisher to ensure that *after that* the advertising, etc, is appropriately targeted.

They don't have to review every video or preview. Not only that, they are streamlining the process so that things are *self reviewed*. The likelihood of Nintendo sending their preview reel to the ESRB is zero.

ALSO IT'S CALLED STREAM.

I just don't see a lot of 3rd party developers will put resources on a nintendo console. The top ones will rather wait until the PS4 or X720.

The most we would get from 3rd party would be enhanced version of multiplat games. Even so people would still buy the 360 or PS4 version due to friends on Live or achievement or something.

It all depends on them being in the specs ballpark for PS4/720. Developers are not going to ignore a Hypothetical Cafe system that has a 15-20 million unit install base. If anything that 15-20 million install base will weigh heavily on developers

At what point do you know Metal Gear Solid but look at Raiden and go "Oh yeah, just gonna go ahead and say that's a woman."
Click to expand...

The point where she does naked cartwheels.

But given the Boss's horse shown off in the Fox engine, it's easy to put 2 and 2 together and say late 50's - early 60's Metal Gear.

The appearance of three different names(which are all probably wrong) says a lot about how good Nintendo is at hiding their secrets and building hype.

Doesn't Cactus disprove herself when she states that the prerelease title for the 25th anniversary collection is called Zelda Universe in her last post? Considering we already know that Zelda Universe is website that has been there for years...

Well, usually. Except in this case we knew a large amount of information about the console before Nintendo even announced they were working on it.

Especially after the reaction to the 3DS. They have to differentiate them.

So does anyone think they will release detailed tech specs at E3, and i mean detailed as in CPU cores,clock speeds, Gfx card capabilities, RAM size....etc,etc?

Or are we just going to get the usual Nintendo line of keeping this stuff to themselves, because they see releasing such information as a distraction.

We'll get a shot of the console, a code-name, and a video showing the faces of people enjoying it.

I assume that if the secret feature is important we won't see it at E3. Nintendo doesn't like the thought of the competition stealing ideas.
Click to expand...
They can't keep important things secret forever. The controller leaks are a prime example of this. Developers will need to be developing for it, and once that's happened the cat's out of the bag. The biggest revelation with Wii was the controller, and they showed that off 14 months prior to launch.

Well, not really good at hiding secrets.

Cafe *is* the development name, as found on the dev site. So, a leaked secret.

Stream *is* the current (lol) name, so that's not been very well hidden either. If your new machine's name is leaked by IGN, it's not much of a secret.

And Current is some fan idea possibly based on what it might be called if it's not called Stream.


Building hype, though. Sure. Masterful. But all Nintendo have to do is to stay quiet, and we (and 4Chan) do the rest.
