Nintendo NX is rumored to be a handheld device with detachable controllers. Moreover, it is stated that it is less powerful than PlayStation 4.
Based on the reports, the Nintendo NX is system is a high-powered handheld console. It has its own screen. However, it also has a docking station which helps the user to play it on TV. It is stated that this is less powerful than PlayStation 4. However, fans are eager to see the Nintendo NX for themselves and judge its capabilities.
There is a twist in the way the console should be used. It actually works in a way the other consoles do. The players can play the console as they would any other handheld system but it will feature two detachable controllers on either side of it. The screen will also be set up to allow multiplayer facility even on the go. Is this the mystery "idea" Shigeru Miyamoto was talking about? Is this the feature that he did not want the competition to steal?
The Nintendo NX can be played anywhere. All the processing of the console is inside the handheld device. What are the loopholes in this design? Since all the controls and processing is jacked into the handheld device and it is portable too, Nintendo has had to overlook the power capabilities of the device. This is the reason why sources claim that Nintendo NX is less powerful than PlayStation 4, reported Game Rant.
Will the console use cartridges? Owing to the fact that Nintendo NX has designed the device's processing with the handheld device, this information might be true. There are reports which state that Nintendo NX's cartridges will be 32GB. The console will support digital downloads which ensures that larger games can be released on the platform.
All that rumors about Nintendo NX cannot be confirmed till the console is revealed. It is also rumored that Nintendo NX will be unveiled in September. This is like a sneak peek before its actual release in March 2017, reported Euro Gamer.
There are statements that Nintendo will use the idea "playing games on the go" as the main selling point for NX. Will it be enough to lure the skeptical lot?
Based on the information that is leaked it sounds like Nintendo NX is an experimental console. IN the recent years, fans were not too happy with Nintendo's experimental consoles. The gamble could pay off if Nintendo has enough quality software available on NX. This is not the first time that Nintendo has defied the odds.
Nintendo NX will be released in March 2017.
