Latest credible NX rumours:
-"Interact with your game on the go" is on an NX poster
-Mario game on launch
-At least four games on launch
-Demo units hit retail stores in February 2017
-Base model price is $299.99
-There will be a bundle SKU which is currently aiming at $399.99
-Branding colouring is blue and white
-4K streaming support for things like Netflix (not gameplay)
-Console aiming 1080p at 60fps
Most of these seem like a no-brainer. At least four launch games? Even the Virtual Boy had four games at launch. Mario game at launch? Necessary if they want to interest casuals and Nintendo fans. Price is $300 or $400? Sounds competitive.
Anyway, the one that really jumps out at me is the blue and white color. Chronologically, it has been grey, grey again, black, purple and black, white, white or black. I could see blue and white if it's like the SNES, where it's mostly gray with purple switches.
Feb '17 seems like a bad time, though. Typically, companies do well when launching consoles near Christmas. I couldn't imagine waiting six months after the demo is released before launching the console.
Shit, idk. Besides, there is no final product yet. There's still time for Nintendo to change their own plans/decisions.
