So Nintendo really has given up. They're going full portable here. Third party developers will likely continue to ignore them or give them table scraps. This is too different from what the rest of the industry is doing. A Nintendo console at this point can't be a device that demands special attention and resources from developers because as we saw with the Wii U they won't dedicate that to a Nintendo console.

Remember when I said that Nintendo already showed the NX controller in plain sight and no one noticed?
Where are the quotes from, GAF?
powered by Tegra.
No individual console and handheld device. You get both in one here. Official unveiling in September apparently.
Nintendo's upcoming NX will be a portable, handheld console with detachable controllers, a number of sources have confirmed to Eurogamer.
On the move, NX will function as a high-powered handheld console with its own display. So far so normal - but here's the twist: we've heard the screen is bookended by two controller sections on either side, which can be attached or detached as required.
Then, when you get home, the system can connect to your TV for gaming on the big screen.
A base unit, or dock station, is used to connect the brain of the NX - within the controller - to display on your TV.
NX will use game cartridges as its choice of physical media, multiple sources have also told us.
Considering NX's basis as a handheld first and foremost, the choice may not come as too much of a surprise - although we have heard the suggestionNintendo recommends a 32GB cartridge
Inside the NX, as stated above, the system will harness Nvidia's powerful mobile processor Tegra. Graphical comparisons with current consoles are difficult due to the vastly different nature of the device - but once again we've heard Nintendo is not chasing graphical parity. Quite the opposite, it is sacrificing power to ensure it can squeeze all of this technology into a handheld, something which also tallies with earlier reports.

I wish I could dap undap one star and neg Nintendo.
Eurogamer has an article out. It's a Tegra powered portable that can dock and be played on a TV.
A hand held with 2 controllers attached to it? That sounds like it's going to be pretty big.
This will likely be the first Nintendo console I don't get at launch since the NES.
I called it being a handheld/console hybrid a long ass time ago.
If this is indeed true
If this is indeed true
Parents aren't buying this with multiple $500 tablets with free games laying around the house
We'll see. I continually have my hopes let down by Nintendo and I give them a hard time for it.
