What're your Nintendo NX predictions regarding it's likely failure?; No bias

Let's get jiggy with it -- the NX will be out in a year or two, and everyone's asking how it'll preform. Throw out a prediction, will ya!


The Device

The device will be similar to an Apple TV, or Amazon Fire TV. The controller will be a handheld system, as powerful as the Wii U, and will have the ability to stream to the TV device either locally, or through Wifi.

The Games

Assuming it'll release in 2016, a new 3D Mario should arrive on launch. Since Galaxy, a new one has been put forward every 3 years, so it's release seems likely. Also, to win over the older audience, too, Nintendo will release Metroid Prime 5. They skip MP 4 because MP 4 was trash, just like Nintendo. Many of fan will be upset. The game will be multiplayer focused, like Halo, and will do very well in the MLG FPS community. After that, the obvious: Smash 5, Mario Kart 9, Mario Party: Who Cares Anymore, Splatoon: Sperm Whale, Pikmin 4: Too Late, and then a port of Super Mario Sunshine, but with inverted colors.

The Sales

It'll obviously fail and Nintendo will go third party.

I'm still confused, unless you just love Nintendo to spite Matt on VGO.
If it has the games I want I'll buy it, that's my prediction. Have they even shown what it is yet? I kinda wish they'd support the Wii U a bit longer since there's a very minuscule amount of games for it even if the ones worth owning are top quality stuff.

I do love Nintendo. Never said I didn't. I do think they'd be much better as a third party developer, though.

I do try to upset Matt -- he's opinions are often made on either misinformation, or biased assumptions.

Criticise Nintendo... no matter how relevant your points are... you're a hater.

So is this just another one of your "criticisms"? I'll be honest, I've gotten really tired of reading your constant anti-Nintendo propaganda. We get it, you curse Nintendo every night before you go to bed and you beat all kids who play their 3DSs with your cane. You're not changing anyone's opinion on here, you're just dragging down the atmosphere with your constant negativity which consists of just re-phrasing the same things over and over again. I do think that criticism in general can be good but you just sound like a broken record at this point.

As for the NX, I have zero interest in it. I no longer feel that I am in the target demographic for Nintendo products. Perhaps I'll change my mind once they unveil the 3rd party games that will be released for it but I'm highly skeptical.

No doubt there will be "innovation" and a "new way to interact with games". Just a guess, anyway.

I would like to see, as always, some way of playing DS games on a TV without having to invest money into their eShop. This is a pipe dream at this point and they have totally missed the boat on this, but I'm still unrealistically hopeful that it will happen one day.

I think the best thing it could be at this point is a game service rather than actual hardware, I've gone off of buying dedicated hardware to play a small selection of games that only mildly interest me. I certainly cannot be bothered using handheld to play certain games that would do very well elsewhere. I just want them to focus on getting games out and not spend too much time focusing on trying to push their latest lacklustre hardware on us.

What will actually happen is another box no one wants, a meager library of worthwhile exclusives and all the semi interesting games being released on yet another handheld device. To expect anything else may be ever so slightly naive on our part. :/

I know Nintendo will be integrating the handheld and console devices in some way, and my prediction/hope is that they'll be straight up interchangeable, and even better a pack in device with both so you don't need to buy several devices separately. Perhaps have it so that playing either home or remotely has extra functionality(?). As for games, I don't think you have the wrong idea, AnnoyingNavi, or will be far off in terms of game line up. I'm sure we'll see some new IPs or odd ideas thrown out, but not more than 1-2 big budget games, we'll likely see a few odd (or innovative) ideas as smaller budgeted games. I think at this point we can't expect the next Mario platformer to be too big of a departure from the steady progression the current team has been making, and I'm sure it'll be fun, full of content and challenges. I'm expecting there to be as close to a Super Smash Kart with the NX as well, even if it's run under the guise of another MK game, MK8 could've possibly been the rite to that next step. Besides that, I don't really expect any real surprises, just your standard hand a first party franchise to a third party dev, get another Xenoblade in the works, bring out an onslaught of Mario Sports after you've put out some of your bigger staple franchises, tease Zelda with another twist, etc, etc.. Even though I don't expect any huge surprises, I can't discount there being a new CEO, so who knows? Maybe they'll aggressively take on acquisitions or development of other companies into consideration?

Anyways, personally, I've grown accustomed how Nintendo operates, I don't need them to be the monolith that they were before, and that's perfectly fine as long as they can release a few games I can enjoy hours on end. And for me, the Wii U delivered on this front, even if it might be 1 or 2 blips within the year. I do hope Nintendo is able to flip a profit whatever their endeavor may be, and whatever change they might take, I'm sure they'll retain some semblance of their identity. Also on a bit of a random note, RIP Konami.

The thing is, when you or Cole, or anyone else for that matter, joke half-seriously with you guy's provocative antics. It can be hard to draw the line, especially for people who haven't gauged on your mannerisms, and what they should stay attentive to, and what should be taken in fine jest. Especially for people who don't know you on that level unless they talk to you in person, tune in to your podcast or even chat with you 1 on 1. It just seems like shitposting.

Also, even given that I know Andsy's loves for trolling, of Nintendo fans in particular, there are also many times where he seems to be fairly serious, and as such wants his points to be taken seriously. That ordinarily wouldn't be an unreasonable thing to want, but I don't know how or why you should expect someone to take you seriously half the time and then completely disregard your statements for the other half. No one should have to pick out the bits of truth and sincerity from the BS in every post.

To be fair, some of his statements are obvious as day as to whether he's being silly or not. Sometimes, it takes a bit of 'knowing' him, which I'm sure most people do around here since at this point we're a smaller community? But if PGRF were to ever to garner new members again (likely no at this point), I could see how people could either take his response seriously in its entirety, or dismiss any legitimate comments he makes due to his tendency for being cheeky.

Nintendo fans wouldnt even take legit criticisms, so many of my well constructed opinions were dismissed regardless.

If i can take the sentiment that Nintendo sell a tired, low quality product... and condense that thought into a single sentence (which will be dismissed anyway)... then I'ma do it.

Besides. Dont be mad that some fat nerd on the internet doesnt like your favourite hentai love pillow or whatever. Just set me to ignore and move on. ;)

@AndsyRR Glad to hear that it was just a silly misunderstanding. I honestly can't tell which one of your posts are serious and which ones aren't (perhaps it would help if I listened to the podcast). At first I thought that they were all jokes but I later found some that were borderline/completely serious so I just assumed that they were all serious from that point onward. My bad.

@Tr3vor LOL. I have to admit that I find this slightly more unsettling though --> https://www.change.org/p/the-oxford-english-corpus-make-the-word-ponut-an-official-english-word-definition-a-word-used-in-brony-culture-to-describe-a-pony-rectum-it-is-a-combination-of-pony-and-donut

@Cole tsk tsk, that was obvious troll :P

I heard some rumors about a possible FFVII HD remake for the NX now with Cloud being announced for Smash.

Also, Mr. Pachter has given us his thoughts on the NX:
http://www.nintendo-insider.com/2015/11/16/nintendo-nx-doomed-before-it-launches-without-key-third-party-support/

I have a feeling that I might skip on the NX but regardless, I'm curious to see what Nintendo comes up with.

Not a fan of Pachter either, to be honest. It should just be a simple sentence; If Nintendo doesn't start making things people want, instead of what they want, then their hardware will be in for a tough time.

I don't know anything about this NX thing, but if it has games like ds and 3ds I'll enjoy it, if it doesn't, I probably won't.

No Metroid=I am not buying it. Metroid is suppose to be one of Nintendo's games in the back pocket...but it seems like they hate the series themselves.
