I like the idea of Home being used somehow. My thinking is that if NX is an infrastructure of sorts that can be used for consoles and handhelds, they could maybe hark back to Nintendo Revolution and call them Revo Home and Revo Go.

I like these names why reminds me the beauty and simplicity of Achient Greece and sounds better than numbers, acronyms, 'wii' brand names and retro consoles rehashes. Also i inspired from codename beta windows versions like Chicago (Windows 95), Whistler (Windows XP), Longhorn (Windows Vista), Vienna (Windows 7), Threshold (Windows 10)
I like this name, though they would have to go back to making better games as if they were still in their prime.

After all the hate Nintendo has been suffering, they will release the Nintendo X. Nintendo X will preach hatred and violence to all other consoles in retaliation for all the years of suffering until eventually finding Islam and believing all consoles deserve the right to exist and thrive without fear or prejudice.

Each time Nintendo made a console, it was describing itself. FamiCom (or NES) was rather self-explanatory. Same with the Super FamiCom (or SNES). 64 bit processor? N64. Why not! The console is shaped like a cube? Gamecube! Great. The Gameboy... a little more unique, but serves its purpose. The DS made sense: dual screen.
Wii was a rather unique step. Instead of describing itself, it aligned with the slogan: Wii would like to play. Local multiplayer. Wii U... I still have no clue.
I think it'd be good for the console to not be named something "epic" but something relevant. Nintendo X would make sense if it is a hybrid. But don't call it the NIntendo NX. That's replicating the name.
Whatever its called, it should make sense. Having class in the name would only be icing on the cake.
When some people refer to a console, they refer to them as either a Playstation, Xboxe or Nintendo. I am sure you know who I mean. "Hey are you playing on your Nintendo?" "Actually its a playstation". It's cool people refer to a console as a company name. It reminds me of those folk who refer to vacuum cleaners as Hoovers. So, maybe they would be best served calling their next systems the Nintendo Home and Nintendo GO as opposed to trying to coin a groovy catchy title like Playbox or XStation.

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.
"The Nintendo OverDrive. We weren't able to make a machine fast or strong enough to be named anything else. But it will work in OverDrive to play those stripped down ports of Ni No Kuni and GTA Vice City that we're bringing to you not a moment too late. Coming Christmas 2016!"
If they keep the NX abrivation, my money is on Nintendo Experience (as it is supposed to be the ultimate Nintendo Experience with a large VC library of all past Nintendo consoles and handhelds (NES, SNES, N64, GC, Wii, WiiU, GB(C), GBA, DS, 3DS (minus 3D of course, unless you have a 3D tv), Smartphone integration (maybe functions as a controller?) and all around My Nintendo and Miiverse focus. Compability with Gamepad, Wiimotes, Wii accessories (Wii Balance Board etc.) and a plug-in for GameCube controllers.
Or how about Nintendo Cross, provided it is a hybrid between handheld and home console.

Here's my response for any thread coming up with Nintendo NX Names/Colors/whatever:
How about we wait and see what the NX IS before we come up with names/Colors/whatever else?
P.S. Wouldn't it be funny if it was just called Nintendo NX?
