What has been code-named NX for some time now, the new Nintendo console will be officially revealed this June, Tokyo financial group Nomura Securities revealed (via Barron’s Asia). The smart money on this reveal would be this year’s E3 Expo in Los Angeles, set to kick off June 14.
Nomura Securities also revealed that the console’s “concept” is expected to be revealed during the spring, between March and May, with its official launch set to be either in October or November of this year. The firm does note that they believe the console will “cannibalize” existing sales of both the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U consoles, the latter of which was first released in 2012, making the gap between consoles just four years.
Previously revealed patents filed by Nintendo have shown off potentially interesting details about the console, such as: a controller with an LCD screen like the Wii U; a round tablet-like controller; and even a console without an optical disc drive and only a memory card slot. |

| It's honestly about time Nintendo makes a console as powerful as the current generation of consoles. |

| Considering I just bought a PS4, this can hold on for a few years. |

| It's apparently the controller that was sent out with the Dev Kit, so it may not be the final design. Still pretty ugly. |

| Isn't their controller supposed to replace the 3DS as their next portable console as well? If so that looks like a step in the wrong direction. Doesn't look like a good controller either. |

| It's an interesting concept and I think it looks pretty cool. I'm just not sure I like the idea of no actual buttons. |

| I guess the buttons are going to be on the touch screen That sounds like a neat idea but sounds horrible if you want to button mash. |

| It's ugly as all hell and I HATE the idea of no physical buttons. Fuck this shit, it's stupid. I'm going to have to get one anyway |
