Wait, what's happening?

Well, for the first time in a very long time, someone has meet our requirements and provided what we feel to be sufficient proof.
We have done our best to confirm this individual's identity and we feel pretty confident about it. However, someone who is determined enough can fake damn near anything as evidenced by that 3D printed controller hoax from a while back. As always, make sure to take everything we're about to post with a grain of salt.

Marketing

• “Interact with your game on the go.” phrase seen on a poster.
  
• Strong co-branding effort with a Mario launch title on many posters.
  
• Console is currently set to launch with least 4 Nintendo titles on deck.
  
• Stores should be receiving demo units around February.
  
• Base price point seems to be sitting at $299.99
  

Bundle

• The NX is currently set to have a bundle option.
  
• The contents of this bundle is currently unknown.
  
• Bundle price is currently sitting at $399.99
  

Packaging

• The packaging for the NX will be slightly larger than the Wii U’s packaging.
  
• The packaging is relatively clean and simple and is similar to the Wii U in terms of package design.
  
• The color scheme for the packaging is white and blue (compared to the Wii U’s blue and black).
  
• The packaging still says “NX” however there is still no indication if this is a placeholder or the final name.
  
• The areas of the packaging that would usually depict the hardware were blurred and redacted by Nintendo in attempt to keep it hidden.
  

Features and Specs

• Games will be on cartridges
  
• 4k streaming has been mentioned. – What this likely means is playback of content such as Netflix, etc. Not gameplay.
  
• 1080p and 60fps are being used by the marketing teams in relation to gameplay on to the console portion. I’ve heard unconfirmed rumblings of 900p for the infamous hybrid part of the device.
  

Fuente

Se toman demasiadas molestias para hacer ver que el rumor viene de una fuente creíble y que han de proteger... A mi me suena a cuento chino.


Eso sí, como lo del Bundle de la consola por 400 pavardos se refiera a consola + base de casa, me voy a cagar en todo. 300 por todo sí que pagaría, pero 400 ni de coña.

Te la van a regalar si quieres @chente

El "Nintendo lo ha vuelto a hacer" se paga.

Con la cantidad de mierda que está saliendo en los rumores antes de la salida de la consola, me parece sensacional que se tomen todas las molestias del mundo en verificar la fuente. Además que parte de la noticia original está eliminada por que otra fuente que tenían han visto que era falsa.

Y lo de protegerla, con los acuerdos de confidencialidad que deben haber firmado esta vez las empresas implicadas, no me extraña nada viendo que nadie suelta prenda de nada concreto, cuando otras veces ya se sabría hasta el color de los calzoncillos de Mario (si es que los lleva).

Que finalmente sea cierto o no o que te creas los rumores es otra cosa. Yo sigo excéptico con todo lo que sale, aunque veo bastante lógico lo que dicen aquí, el precio parece que, al igual que en Tesco, tiene pinta de no ser el definitivo o que no se ha aclarado, al igual que el nombre.

Independientemente del rumor, que la nueva consola de Nintendo pueda valer 400€ es para hacerselo mirar, espero que hayan aprendido de 3DS y WiiU, su mercado no está dispuesto a pagar tanto dinero.

Daría para debate la verdad, yo tengo intención de pillarla si aprenden de los errores cometidos con el hardware y software de 3DS y WiiU (insisto que no me refiero a la potencia), pero 400€ sería una barrera por la que no pasaría, principalmente porque esa barrera podría convertirla en una WiiU 2.0 y ya sabemos de sobra como ha avanzado WiiU para saber como actuar en consecuencia.
