I would be a little more concerned if it indeed was part of the direct. Why would Nintendo pull this out? It could also be observed (albeit shrewdly) that Nintendo has cancelled its spring direct - it's been so long!
with all the news the last day or so I didn't acknowledge the fact that the NX is rumored to be tablet size. I hope that it is of the small tablet size. The best thing about mobile gaming and the 3ds is its ability to fit into a pocket. I really hope they nail the form factor.
I agree with everything this article said. I think Reggie basically stated it in his initial comments during the direct - "We have new hardware, which we will talk about next year". He could have followed that up with "Here's everything we have left in the production pipe until then".
I feel really jaded from the idea that the Wii U will not get BIG support past next year. I think it would be smart if Nintendo made the NX backwards compatible with the Wii U and eshop. I will bite the bullet and buy the NX if I don't have to repurchase Wii U games.
Perhaps the NX will be slightly more powerful than the Wii U and we will see simultaneous releases on several games not just the next Zelda.
@Sylverstone Not to mention, Mass Effect 3 released at the same time as the Mass Effect Trilogy was available for other consoles - albeit at a cheaper price.

Re: Super Mario Bros. Movie Voice Actor Keegan-Michael Key To Appear At The Game Awards
I predict the only presence Nintendo has at the game awards will be the Mario movie - no other reveals
Re: Random: GAME Mentions Non-Existent Nintendo Direct, Quickly Removes All Evidence

Re: Talking Point: Nintendo NX Deal Is A Vindication Of Nvidia's Shield Program
with all the news the last day or so I didn't acknowledge the fact that the NX is rumored to be tablet size. I hope that it is of the small tablet size. The best thing about mobile gaming and the 3ds is its ability to fit into a pocket. I really hope they nail the form factor.
Re: Talking Point: Considering the Angles of a Portable and Dynamic Nintendo NX
Can someone explain the whole "dev kits use an X1 chip with fans" thing and how that equates to an X2 chip in the final product?

Re: Nintendo Confirms Smash Bros., 3D Mario and Mario Kart for E3 Nintendo Direct
@HeatBombastic unless of course one of those games is Retro's game. I just hope there are some unannounced surprises.
Re: Nintendo Confirms Smash Bros., 3D Mario and Mario Kart for E3 Nintendo Direct
I'm sort of worried that these will be the only games shown before, at, or around E3.
