HyperCube won't be the name of the next system considering the unceremonious sales figures of the GameCube. Nintendo Hyper maybe ("we're hyped for Hyper!" =/).
I really like the name NX and I'm sure that many here agree, but I doubt that it will be the final name of the system. I really hope that it will be though.

Just call it the Nintendo. If it is truly a hybrid, when parents are looking for a game they just look for the games with the big N and grab it just like that.

They need a name that lets the people know the machine can do spectacular things but it is also accessible to the working classes:
Nintendo Magic Brick
it's a wonderful name. Also, it shouldn't come in a box but wrapped in newspaper with a rubber band around it. Or two rubber bands criss-crossing?! You can get really fancy with the packaging these days.

Really, if the NX is a home console, then Ultra NES is arguably a perfect name for it. Straight to the point, and less mocking. Or Wii 3. Makes sense.
I just saw another suggestion on this very page: Nintendo Magic Brick. Really? REALLY? That won't work. It just sounds silly.
The NX is going to be delayed to Holiday 2017 you heard it here first, also It should be pretty obvious what my favorite game of all time is cough Skyward Sword cough

It's a great name. It's a thing of beauty, really. Pink Floyd made a whole record around bricks and nobody thought it was silly.
Another ace name is Nintendo Disco 2000. That's really special.
You can add as many latin/greek adverbs and adjectives (Mega, Ultra, Hyper, Proto, Scroto, Super, Duplex etc) and it still sounds like a plastic toy for children. But if you add "2000" at the end, it sounds like something that comes from the future and shoots lasers while a theremin plays in the background.

The NX should be named based on it's defining features.
If it's really fast: Nintendo SuperSonic
If it's really powerful: Nintendo PowerHouse
If Nintendo is making this their last console: Nintendo Finale
etc.
And if not, Nintendo OverDrive.

Assuming the NX is a home console, how about Nintendo goes back to the basics: The Ultra Nintendo Entertainment Console, or the UNEC (pronounced ooh-nec, not you-nec). If it's a handheld on the other hand, then maybe I'll be fine with the 4DS or HDS. If it's a hybrid, then Nintendo should call it "The Ultra Nintendo Cross System,* or the UNXC.
