Always wanting a challenge they will go with the Nintendo Do. To be called the 'dead as a doDo' and dog Do by the haters.

Right Pee-U or Poo-U could be onto a winner, ha ha...

Actually really liked the NEX one - not a million miles away from NES, and people familiar with gaming have already heard of NX in the press....

Anyone know was it all nonsense about the dock integrating with other stuff around your home to make it more powerful?

I.E via "the cloud" which seemed pie in the sky but did raise my eyebrows...

If you could buy 2 docks and double the power of the unit that would be amazing, but I imagine that to be a developer nightmare also... :P

Apparently, Nintendo NY, the store, will be closed on Oct 1 for a private event...

What about the NES T? Or NEST? It carries all your eggs games in one basket nest. Like a nest, you fit (an object or objects) inside a larger one. When the portable sits in the middle of the dock it looks like a nest. And it'll have several branches that all intertwine to make a whole. The NES was their original cartridge system, and they're using them again, so it could be like returning home to where it all began. Now, what would the T stand for? I have some ideas but none that I completely like.

Edit: Maybe NES Ten. Which can be written as X in Roman numerals. It is ten when you discount Virtual Boy.

Someone said on neogaf said its been rented out before for like a wedding or some rubbish, I wouldn't get too excited.

Yokai watch launch event apparently.

At this stage I'm focused on more important things
Work
Family
Sega....

So the chance of a September reveal is gone. Wonder if that eurogamer leak was true or fake or if plans changed.

Lifetime ban?

Only if it isn't actually revealed on Friday like he said.

Iseedeadpixels

Sorry guys

Ah we all know if the reveal date isn't posted here by Sligeach then it's a fake.

Banjo

I can't believe no one has figured it out yet. Sligeach IS the NX. Or at least the revolutionary social interaction platform that's going to replace Miiverse. The longer he has to keep his true identity secret the more it feeds back into his grumpiness algorithm.

Damnit, Banjo's been on CiDeRmAn'S keyboard again...

I was sure we'd see the reveal in September. C'mon Ninty, you've two days left before I look like a fool!!! :pac:

CastorTroy

None more so than now

I'm not pointing any fingers here. But I think Ciderman's virtual boy obsession has caused Nintendo to not only delay the NX, but also delay the NX reveal. Just a theory I'm putting out there.

Banjo

I had a virtual boy once, but then that feckin' blue fairy came along and ruined everything...

The only VB I love is my own, and I confess to emailing Nintendo about releasing a pack of 1st party VB games on the 3DS, seemed like a good fit and a natural thing tbh.
I got a response as well, and the writer gushed about the VB too, but they couldn't take submissions for 3DS game release ideas

Besides, Shigsy and Reggie assured me, on Iwata's ghost, that the NX wouldn't be delayed any further, when they were over drinking cider with me the other evening.
Oddly, they only appeared after the first 3 ltr of Linden Village was drank, and were gone by the time I came to.
Strange that....

They were probably struck by White Lightning... Which having matured in the time since it was removed from the market, became extra potent!
