@Ryu_Niiyama yes, it can, 3ds can use AR but lacked location GPS services... the next handheld will Attempt to harmonize the mobile market...

@Chibiterasu not like this....

@electrolite77 Not really, its too short sighted, Nintendo needs to turn these phenomena into a long term strategy... that's why pokemania was persistent up to Gen III

@Ralizah don't worry, the idea is to make money through giving casuals the taste of the forbidden elixir

@King_Boo correction: major IP, Miitomo sold well, but its nothing compared to candy crush, let alone Pokémon GO

@rjejr its past 31 Billon in net worth...

@MGray the handheld patent filed by Nintendo has in built GPS and sim integration. dedicated handhelds will benefit from this AR.

@CTMike put it this way, Nintendo stock has given Kimishima a safety blanket for Wii U's expected losses. 3ds is also getting runoff sales as well.

@SMW basically, revolutionizing the AR game and firmly cementing its impact for the long haul.

I'm open to what wb can provide me.

@WindWakerLink its ok, its been a while since I was on this site.

@remag considering Australia is apart of the commonwealth... we want our own independence as well...

@Dark-Link73 actually, it happens in the Aonuma interview (basically, Bill playing the timed demo whoops...)

well, this game is seriously killing it worldwide, it basically overtook EVERYONE on the App store, and that's no lie, I'm enjoying playing Pokémon GO, n.n Australia was one of the first areas rolled out and I am almost LV 5, Team Instinct, and I come to RIDE THE LIGHTNING!!!

@remag I'm sorry, we cant do that, there is a thing called the "global marketplace" and no matter how isolationist your countries policies will be, there is no denying that what you did impacted the ASX in my country...
saying otherwise is blind and niave at this point... we are all connected... if the pound drops, so to does the Australian dollar, I'm sorry if your ignorance with my country prevented you from seeing that what the brexit did sent economic shockwaves world wide and if I was to worry about my country in this regard, well done for crashing the ASX... bravo... you just made the Australian dollar more unstable.

@remag I do find that example to be rather simplistic to the ramifications and the decades of rebuilding to replace what was once there in the 1970s...

I am aware of thatchernomics and other "free market profiteering" that pilfered your country dry... I am rather confused as to what this means for the Commonwealth i.e Australia.

but your example is shortsighted in the mass scale of immigration, you can build a wall 10 meteres high, place guard towers around it... but there would be suspicions of "control" on a mass scale to not just let people in but to not let them out.

naturally, a wall is unfeasible with the migration problem, but i'd like to suggest a total breakup of the UK as a possibility and an inevitability.

Scotland, Ireland and wales could decide to leave the UK and make England a country that would be easy to be invaded by Russia... likely Germany and France feel like the EU cannot sustain itself with its debt ridden books... but as they say
Currency war > Trade war > world war.

@freaksloan YOU ARE JOKING RIGHT??

the UN is not like the EU, it is like the league of nations...

UN doesn't "own" anything...

@Angelic_Lapras_King Nintendo already has an UK branch, you are fine.

@GravyThief UK has an Nintendo of UK, you are fine for the most part.

@Blastcorp64 Nintendo already has an Nintendo of UK, they will be fine, remember, Nintendo has their jobs at stake, we don't.

@Dezzy actually, this is more like the NX announcement stifling the growth of wii U, Nintendo wasn't the only company hit, and I bet Nintendo UK has been at battle stations.

NOJ didn't like this uncertainty but its the stock market. just look at Sony's stock....

@Olivierke uhh, why not 3ds? like Phoenix wright?

@LemonSlice NX handheld?

@shadowmouse09 why wii U? can I ask as to why?

@Shy_Guy this system was what made me what I am today.... an avid gamer and Nintendo fangirl, and in 1998 Australian shores this arrived and Pokémon Stadium and Pokémon snap is what I got for my Christmas.

i'll never forget my N64 and I still have it to this day, and I know it wont die.... I just know...

@BaffleBlend you do understand this was when Nintendo threw that thinking out the window, the Nintendo 64 was more powerful than the playstation, what actually got them was a lack of RPGs like the wii U, only Japan is swimming in wii U rpgs.

the Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2.

little fact, the Sega Master system was stronger than the Nintendo Entertainment System, yes, times are tough, but this is a company that went from making playing cards to Sex hotels, Taxi services, TV channel and instant ramen. then after thw Disney contract they made the very first console (not home console with carts) it was a pong machine like Atari's and it won the first Generation of consoles with the color TV game.
during the 2nd gen, Microvision was released then in 1981 the Game and Watch was released and battered the microvision into the same abyss the Vectrex lives in.

some history on Nintendo's foray into console gamming.

@PlywoodStick but definitely possible with Nintendo, as they aren't into photorealism,

@azelf if is using carts it using the same media format, the OS is to emulate and port NX games from handheld to home console and vice versa. like apple.

they are unifying the architecture, and if there is chips that blow the wii U out of the water then i'll believe Zelda breath of the wild on the go. this just sounds like a emulation layer, like PC low-medium to high.

Nintendo had trouble getting the 3DS and wii U to cooperate with each other and the merger of the two teams was so that when developing console handheld they all know the specifications, share the same format and can target the specs to handle ports of Console titles to handheld titles.

@mariovslink62 512 GB SD card
you are clearly mistaken

@RedeadLink its actually cheaper to make than normal SD cards, and digital downloading is very popular amongst modern gamers nowadays and 100GB or 64GB are good options because they are SDXC which supports 4K content.

@ThanosReXXX and SD ports are able to support 4K, Nintendo is using cards to break off from 4K Blu ray. NX may as well have 4K Netflix streaming. but the share OS make GBA and GCN level intergration possible, something that couldn't be done on Wii U and 3DS.

@SanderEvers so... the NX is a codename for a platform of devices running on a shared OS?

@gcunit that's not a hybrid, the retro duo and Supaboy are NES and SNES hybrids.

@Jolt yes, through the power of file compression.

think of this as a "card" rather than a cart...

essentially, 64 GB SD cards are cheaper than what they were during the lifecycle of the 3DS.
and don't forget that it costs less for a manufacturer to make it than to buy it off them, we call them "Wholesalers"
Macronix makes the chips for Nintendo, Nintendo give 3rd party a licence, reduced if on eshop...
the benefits of this is... no 2TB HDD (I'm fine with EXT) or a way to remove it like the PS4.
disc drives cost mad prices.
developers can code to the metal with Vulcan API (which Nintendo is apart of.)
no need to install from blu ray (think back to the patents)
no added fee of using Sony's proprietary format.

@azelf not necessarily, do you call the NES, SNES and N64 a "under the tv console hybrid"?

its pointing to a Console of some type and knowing Nintendo Macronix is involved.

@hYdeks agreed, it will still be a good experience but might need to be an anthology with Arkham asylum
they do that, i'll buy day one with Breath of the wild

@AlexSora89 i thought it was "cry like an anime fan on prom night"?

good to see the caped crusader back, enjoyed playing Arkham City armoured edition, I guess this is what Nintendo wanted the 2nd screen experience to be, display vitals while not breaking the flow of gameplay.

which Aonuma claimed was unavoidable with Breath of the wild.
so the gamepad feature is not on the NX...

@PlywoodStick but it does make sense for Nintendo to make a 4K console on similar specs to neo rather than Scorpio, not that they aren't thinking of just overclocking modified RX 480s to achieve upscaled 4K at 30fps (knowing Nintendo, they will target native 4k 60Fps with their artistic graphics rather than photorealism.) as was stated, if there's any company that can hit native 4k 60 consistently, its Nintendo...

the wii U hit native 1080p 60 with Bayonetta 2 and Super smash bros 4.
did you know the Zelda breath of the wild images by [email protected] were in 4K...

Nintendo's first 4K home entertainment console will deliver Nintendo content far beyond what they have ever made before.

@PlywoodStick if both neo and NX are using modified RX 480
they will be 5.6TF (with a 4TF gap) from 6TF which then can be overclocked over 1000mhz

both Neo and NX will have established install bases before Scorpio begins to sting the xbox one install base let alone the Neo or NX's

@PlywoodStick they were in he purple ocean with wii U and 3DS.

@rjejr if they did it to me i'd sent those hackers to court.
this is no different to counterfeiting (which is a crime)

and it makes modders look bad.

@HappyMaskedGuy absolutely because there is no precedent set by the courts, judge made law will rule this as piracy and counterfeiting, while they don't steal the data perse, they do counterfeit it (making a copy) and the fact if someone leaked my own demo that I had no intention making publically accessable to any one but beta testers. i'd haul the hackers ass to court for counterfeiting works in development (which is trespass) a tort I can use to claim the hacker broke into my digital property without permission.

@Henmii its not representative of the finished product, do you not get that?

@Benjelo it is theft, you don't steal prototypes of games and the e3 build is no exception, they breached Nintendo's own units and attempted to dump data not meant to be represented in the final product... like Valve found out... so to does Nintendo care a lot about hackers breaking into their property (this is their property even to the modding community, the demo is not on the eshop, secondly, the game has not even come out yet and people do not wish to be spoiled.)
this is straight up theft and counterfeiting.

@TTGlider they are Nintendo demo kits, they know all the workings of it. as the hackers found out, they were different wii Us to what we own.

@Nintenjoe64 the demo was for people to get used to an open world Zelda and they were very caring of Zelda fans ho did not wish to get spoiled as Nintendo told us their livestream.

that's why we didn't get a demo.

@happylittlepigs you watched it too? Etika, Etika I respect him but this IS THEFT...
they
Cracked a wii U owned by Nintendo
attempted to dump a game, in development (this is why I use paper books for my story writing and games.) it is Nintnedo's property, they are not sharing the game because they feel the e3 build is to get players used to an open world Zelda.

day one, they were using a sd card to dump the demo
when they tried again, they failed... Bill of NOA was alerted Dedsec was hacking their wii U's.

as a modder, I am disgusted with the livestream.

@Dark-Link73 heres your evidence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRysnFfh0Gk

I watched this livestream, they used a SD card.

@YouSeemFRAZZLED Etika's livestream ft NWplayer123
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRysnFfh0Gk

@Gridatttack yes they can, they attempted to use a CAT device (SD card) to get a dump from the unit itself, the demo was 16GB big and proof a hacking plot happened : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRysnFfh0Gk

twitch streamer Etika was watching Day 1 of the treehouse and hackers including NWplayer123 was in the chat, a group calling themselves "Dedsec" were trying to dump the demo build... but they found out the demo units were different to the retail WII Us.
its 5 hours of pure cringe and evidence that hacking was happening on the showfloor.
