NX Thread!!! Now you Playing with Power ????

[Legend]

system is too big to be portable.
controllers are too small to be comfortable as a home console.

I'm thinking iPad mini size.

Wouldn't be surprised if it's foldable or something

Remember those phones you used to be able to fold and twist?

Yeah so if the eurogamer rumour is correct
Its portable
Attachable controllers
Powered by Tegra
And some other things

Kinda figured this deserved its own thread, from MCV:

 The same sources tell MCV that Nintendo is determined that NX will not suffer the same slow starts as Wii U or 3DS, and that [/font][/size]Eurogamer's report last week[/size][/color][/b] [/font][/size]that NX is a portable machine with a breakaway controller that can be plugged into a TV is accurate. Graphics are said to be 'somewhere between PS3 and PS4.'[/font][/size]

 "It's a nice bit of kit, a bit of a novelty, but a good one," one executive that went hands-on with the machine told MCV. "It won't appeal to PS4 fans. Nintendo seems set on trying to upgrade smartphone gamers. That's going to be a big job for the marketing department."[/font][/size]

 My guess is a Pascal Tegra X2 based custom chip that's in the range of 700 GFLOPS-1 TFLOP when plugged into a wall. Which for a portable would be very kick dog. My other guess is the "TV dock" that's included is basically like a "cooling bay" for the chip which cools it and lets it run at full power at home with an active fan. When it's portable, it downclocks to 300-400 GFLOPS and is passively cooled. Just a guess though. [/font][/size]
