MindFreak Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Totally unfair to announce it in the middle of the night! But good news that it's finally coming, and don't underestimate how much you can say with a video and talk for 3 minutes. We should probably just not expect hardware details (power, etc.) and games but aside from that we should have a pretty good idea of what the system is about. Also, "home gaming system" could refer to a system in particular. Components that work together and such.
Serebii Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Ah good, as the week was going on I was fearing that I had been trolled again and was ready to backhand someone Hype hype
Phube Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Interestingly the FaceBook post is still calling it the NX. Offial name?
liger05 Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Interestingly the FaceBook post is still calling it the NX. Offial name? Really hope its official name is NX
Dcubed Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 At last! The pitch black nothingness is over!!!! We can finally have some sort of conversation about it! 3 minutes seems strikingly short for a brand new reveal though. Not much time to make an impression, so hopefully that means that they're confident that the message is simple enough to get across and not confusing...
Blade Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Finally they are going to show it! I'll have to sneak off at work to watch it haha! 180 seconds isn't that long though. Will be interested to see what is shown.
Glen-i Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) Wait, it's actually happening!? As in, something concrete? And it's happening tonight? Right on the day when I've got no more work for the rest of the week? Sometimes it pays to have Ninty spying on you. They totally jumped the gun though, it was meant to happen when @S\.C\.G reached Hunter Rank 64.5 in MonHun Generations! Maybe we'll finally go 3 days without yet another rumour popping up here now.

Not much time to make an impression, so hopefully that means that they're confident that the message is simple enough to get across and not confusing... I think it's just going to be a teaser with a full reveal date at the end. I've said this for a while now, they needed to get something out before their investors meeting next week because they will not remain silent if they were still hush hush. My guess is that it will be something similar to how the Wii's controller was revealed, lots of shots of people 'playing' something and then the main distinguishing feature of the console shown at the end.
Serebii Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 I imagine the main reveal won't be too far away though. In the next two weeks.
liger05 Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 3 mins to not leave any confusion. That shouldn't be difficult. Laura Kate Dale @LaurakBuzz 6 Std.Vor 6 StundenNX not using Wii line branding. Yay!!!
Serebii Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 3 mins to not leave any confusion. That shouldn't be difficult. Yay!!! Well yeah. Kimishima confirmed that ages ago
James Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 This and red dead trailer today, maybe it will be released for the NX......or not.
Serebii Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 This and red dead trailer today, maybe it will be released for the NX......or not. Don't the heads of Rockstar hate Nintendo?
Hero-of-Time Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 I imagine the main reveal won't be too far away though. In the next two weeks. I hope so. While I'm excited to finally get to see the NX, I was hoping for a full blown reveal, with games and montages all over the place. Instead it seems we are only getting a taste. I wonder if they are going to drip feed us stuff until the thing actually launches.

Ronnie Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 180 glorious seconds, I wonder if a "perfectly running" Mario NX will be the (only?) game they show off...
liger05 Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 180 glorious seconds, I wonder if a "perfectly running" Mario NX will be the (only?) game they show off... Very shocked if Zelda isn't shown.
Ronnie Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 First console reveal with no Iwata, feels weird man. Very shocked if Zelda isn't shown. I'm not expecting a software lineup to be shown till the full reveal, including Zelda, but who knows.
Shorty Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Wait, it's actually happening!? As in, something concrete? And it's happening tonight? Right on the day when I've got no more work for the rest of the week? Sometimes it pays to have Ninty spying on you. Not tonight, 3pm unless I'm misreading.
Serebii Posted October 20, 2016 Author Posted October 20, 2016 Not tonight, 3pm unless I'm misreading. You're not
liger05 Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 I'm not expecting a software lineup to be shown till the full reveal, including Zelda, but who knows. Hi resolution footage of what the NX looks like, some Zelda footage and a Mario tease would do me fine.
Ashley Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 Don't the heads of Rockstar hate Nintendo? I think they just question Nintendo and some people interpret that as hating them. Least I'm working at home today so I can cover this thing.
Rummy Posted October 20, 2016 Posted October 20, 2016 I actually have no idea who she is barring all of her speculative/insider knowledge posts, posted in this thread. She's been a video games journalist for quite a while - wrote a number of pretty comprehensive good read articles on Not Enough Shaders(NES) then went off to do her own thing on what I thought was her own site(Dromble) either before or after trying to leave video games journalism to help indies or something(obvs didn't work out as she came back to writing). Not sure who she writes for now(think just her own WP blog), but her articles were as I said usually quite a good read for some of Nintendo's histories. Given the nature of her articles and having seen her about a few times I give her a bit more credence than most other speculators - but I still take it all with a rather large pinch of salt. I much prefer when she sticks to writing stuff. I hope so. While I'm excited to finally get to see the NX, I was hoping for a full blown reveal, with games and montages all over the place. Instead it seems we are only getting a taste. I wonder if they are going to drip feed us stuff until the thing actually launches. Same - wondering if this might just be a quick teaser trailer for a more official/fuller reveal and they're doing it to get some hype and awareness up and out there - many people may have stopped caring by this point and they'll wanna try and build that back up a bit if so.
