@blaisedinsd what are you trying to say? Super gameboy advance? Is this a joke I'm not getting.

That's the vibe I am getting from the rumors. A single screen portable device (like Gameboy) with more power than Wii U but less than current gen. NX will be the first 9th generation console right? I expect the price to be closer to Wii U than 3DS.

From what I've read, it should be on par with current gen consoles. If it's a hybrid, I would think they have more than enough titles lined up since they are expanding their library for portability and home console gaming.

What I wonder is how this could effect the next handheld console.

Don't get your hopes up. If it's Nvidia's X1 or X2, it still won't be on par with the Xbox One in terms of raw power. FFXV won't run on that system.

Yeah, if the Eurogamer leaks are true then the NX will be powerful as a handheld but very weak as a home console. Hence the normal 3rd parties will abandon it early on unless it becomes a major hit like the Wii.

One thing I don't understand is the whole portable aspect. We have a good handheld console as it is with plenty of games. If the NX is a portable/ home console hybrid then I assume most of their resources would go into developing games to fit both formats, and no 3DS successor anytime soon.

@retropunky I don't think there will be a 3DS successor if the NX will act as both a home console and a handheld console.

I could definitely see Super Mario Galaxy 3 being a game announced alongside the NX reveal. It just seems like a no brainer. I could also see it being like Twilight Princess or Breath of the Wild, in that it will launch for both the older system and the newer.

@retropunky I really don't understand that either. I feel like Nintendo is going to run into trouble not simply focusing the NX strictly as a home console.
