At what point are phones gonna be too thin?  I would honestly prefer it if Apple would just make a thicker model that maybe has more battery or something.

If they went and did that how would they force you to upgrade every couple of years though?

If I recall my NWR/PGC history, I think linking or promoting a GameFaqs game battle tournament used to be a bannable offense. Ah, how times have changed.

I like the way you think. If every website followed that practice maybe that, "site," would have died years ago.

So if rumors of shortages are true I doubt a price cut is likely to happen anytime soon.

Nintendo Gaming / Re: We've only had 14 seconds of Zelda Wii U gameplay in a year!

« on: December 08, 2015, 01:13:12 PM »

what if they do like Twilight Princess and release the game on both consoles but they change art styles Wii U gets the cartooney Zelda to go along with Wind waker and the whole Wii U theme, and NX gets the real, hard core Zelda that will convince gamers NX is the real deal and they are withholding new footage to avoid a repeat of Wind Waker's original reveal.

I figure it would be a lot of work to make the two games look different. But then it would make it more enticing for people to double-dip.  If the NX is backwards compatible then NX owners might buy both if they're both distinct enough.  I figure it would just be like Twilight Princess though.  Or worst case scenario is that Miyamoto up-ended the tea table because he wants more forced Amiibo or touchscreen usage or some dumb gimmick like that.

This is such a cash grab idea but what if Nintendo did the MGSV route and had a smaller Zelda for the Wii U as a "prologue" and then the full Zelda later for the NX?

How hard would it be to change a few textures really? I was half-kidding though. Honestly I am worried this game is going to be too big.

I lost interest in the game when I heard they were revamping the battle system. Episodic on the other hand isn't a big deal because the game was like that already in a way, it spanned 3 discs and each disc had it's own portion of the story, playing it that way might be the only way to relive the retro feel of this game.

If they do anything special with the controls I want touch stylus support, that alone makes this versions superior to all the rest. Even better than offtv play which is perfect for freeing up my PS4 to do more important things.

I am excited and I already own it for PS4. I don't care if it has online because I don't currently play online anyways. What I want is offtv play, mentioned, and custom Nintendo skins, mentioned, and touch/stylus controls, not mentioned but hopefully still in the works.

I already have the PS4 edition but I wanted this just for Off-Tv play and the Nintendo skins. I DO care if they require Amiibo to unlock though because I am not at all interested in Amiibo. I would rather just buy the content that I want.

They just revealed a patent for a detachable computing device. You all can live in denial all you want NX is going to be unified machine, handheld and console, all signs point to that being the case. It makes sense they would have been so vehemently against it vocally they were trying to cover up their plans. makes sense to me, so whatever. Even if its not  full on hybrid they will be connected and whatever is coming next year is NOT going to be the handheld. That is all I am saying you can believe whatever you want.

corporate name dropping aside, nothing you said disproves that this could be a single machine in two form factors or two interconnected machines. There is nothing that suggests this is the same handheld-console format they have stuck with, the Wii U is indicative of the fact they are trying to tie their mobile and console divisions, is it so hard to imagine a Wii U  like console that lets the gamepad detach and be used as a mobile device? Or that they release two versions of the game but you only have to buy just one, I never said it had to be a TRUE hybrid, or whatever that even means, but that if it combines console and mobile gaming it will be huge, and EVERYTHING suggests that it does that, YOU guys are the ones throwing out the word hybrid as if that is the ONLY way to marry the two which it is not. This is GOING to be ONE thing, they have gone on record saying as such, we do not know if it will be JUST a console and handheld is sold in same package, if it is a tablet, or if it is something else or if its just cross-buy for every game we don't know YOU don't know I don't know nobody knows.



BUT it is most certainly NOT just a handheld launching this year whatever it is WILL replace Wii U that much is all but certain.

So looks like cheaping out and buying a Windows Phone was actually a stupid move. I am probably going to see about getting an Android phone maybe a Galaxy, with my Christmas bonus this year, if I don't spend it all on an Xbox One.

Except quoting Iwata means squat, the man is worm food, his opinions are no longer valid. Also There have been ample evidence surfacing that they could be working on either a hybrid, or some other type of unified console. The Wii U was almost that anyways and it is the ONE thing Nintendo can do in this current market to regain true relevance.

I browse the web on my phone and i play mobile game as like as Oceanhorn , 3DS. I love lot of playing mobile game.

I need to get back to Oceanhorn! The problem with these inexpensive mobile games is that my backlog grows even more! Can't complain about having too many games to play, as that's a problem I don't mind!

I would say join the club man, but from what I can tell I think it is safe to say we are all in the same boat.

How do you know? I thought it was supposed to be a single device or a single operating system that works on both devices, those are the two prevailing theories. Beyond that nobody knows for sure hence why I said it "has potential" if that is what it is. Right now we don't know that it isn't that either. Nobody does so you can't be so sure of yourself either.

I like Miyamoto and all but that guy needs to retire already, he has been the public face of Nintendo my whole life and he is getting stale. They should also fire Reggie and replace him with someone that plays video games.

I love the Wii U to death but to pretend it still has real life in it is completely delusional.

NX has potential to unite the fanbase, a single machine that is both a console and a handheld that will sell millions. If it gets the same support as the handheld's currently it will be vastly better than the consoles have been in years, so yeah it is reasonable to assume people will be hyped for this thing, if they deliver on the promises and wild speculation we have blown out of proportion in our minds. I mean there is a new Star Wars movie launching in a few short weeks, some of use are just in ultra hype mode for that and anything else is going to get spill over from that.

They just launched a new handheld last year, there is no way they replace that so soon. They Wii U is dead, they need to sweep it under the rug and this timeline makes good sense, it will be just right to get in on the current gen without taking too much away from PS4 and Xbox One since there are still millions of users sticking to last gen, which many consider Wii U to be anyways.


There is nothing discounting this from being a true dedicated "gaming tablet" either, which might be why 3rd parties were so excited for it, a gaming tablet with Nintendo's expertise and it is scaleable that would excite most companies.

But there is still nothing saying this is a console or a handheld either way. It's all speculation at this point.
