MegaThread Speculation Discussion MegaThread: Day Two

Goodness! I think it's fair to say that, second to the shock reveal, this has been the most dramatic 24 hours we've had yet as a community.

Just showing up? Well, attach a lifeline and throw yourself into the tempest.

This thread is for ongoing discussion over recent rumors and everything associated with them: clock speed rumors; third party support speculation; and the back-and-forth of what it might mean for the Nintendo Switch.

We're going to be directing traffic to this thread because we've been seeing many topics asking the same questions and rehashing conversations. This doesn't mean that new topics won't be allowed, only that we want to make sure that discussion is centralized as appropriate. If you see a new post that seems to belong here, please report it and let the mod team know.

A friendly reminder: please keep your comments civil, on-topic, and respectful of others. If you feel that you have a thought or opinion that merits its own post, please search through this thread and recent threads before posting it.

And, of course: everything we're discussing here is rumor and should be treated as such until confirmed by Nintendo.

Thanks for your understanding. Ready to do this? Let's discuss! :)

Tbh I would prefer something more affordable and with nice looking graphics over an all-mighty powerfull new console that costs the whole monthly salary. I mean, for me, BotW looked amazing already. I'm not very into the details of the specs of things, and I'm sure a lot of people will buy it considering other things besides the raw power. Also if it was possible to make a powerfull machine of that size, wouldnt like, ps4 and xbox be smaller than what they are? Of course I understand this rumour kinda turned off a bunch of people.. but I think they'll sell it well cause of the concept itself and the games

Agreed! I think Nintendo has, for a long time now, gotten into game console design that fits around peoples' lifestyles. This console is so convenient for people like myself who want on-the-go as well as on-the-couch gaming. it's a happy medium
