Quote"We do not plan on talking specifics about the the NX until 2016," Iwata said again during the investors meeting. Explaining why the announcement was made so early, Iwata said he didn't want people to think the smart device collaboration with DeNA meant that Nintendo was abandoning home gaming systems.


"Presently, we cannot talk about the time period when it [the NX] will go on sale or what it's like," Iwata said. "Because we are calling it a 'new concept,' we are not thinking of this as a 'simple replacement' for the 3DS or the Wii U."

no way is it a home console. its the 3DS successor. 3DS came out in early 2011, this comes out at the earliest in late 2016.  a 5 and half year life cycle for 3DS is natural. not a 3 year one for WiiU.

"abandoning home gaming systems."

I'd agree if he didn't just say the opposite.

i agree with banana here.  the "abandoning home gaming systems." is a lose in translation i think because the last time i saw that exact quote it said "dedicated gaming consoles."
