Hope it's not the "Nintendo 3DWiiu" and it is some serious powered-up, non-family, non-fitness, coherent, no bs, non-useless-tablet, straight up BD game console...

It's about time they open their eyes...

I think it's too soon for a new Nintendo system. The 3DS is doing exceptionally and it seems like above average games are now being released for the Wii U. Any other system release from the company may warrant in failure or even further loss in sales.

Waaaaay too soon for a new Console. If they want to completely kill their home console market its by making the Wii U redundant and pissing off all the adopters. The Wii U has plenty of potential and power under the hood. Nintendo just has to get developers on board to take advantage.

Maybe a Wii U side-grade of some kind? I might believe.

I hope they don't plan on releasing a new handheld anytime soon. I just got my 3DS a few months ago and do NOT plan on buying another console anytime soon.

Hopefully it'll be a new model for the wii U or some crap like that.

A new 3DS doesn't seem likely either as it just rolled out the 2DS and are still moving a ton of units every month. When that tappers off in a year or two (Christmas 2016?), then expect a new handheld.

They've rolled out a new model DS/3DS every year since the DSi. It could be either a 2DS XL or even an all new model with extra bells and whistles like the DSi was to the original DS models.

It's a new Handheld/Mobile device codenamed "Gameboy Fusion". Its 3DS' successor. Nintendo plans on mergering with Panasonic and will appoint Yamauchi's son Hideki as its new CEO. The Yamauchi family has been secretly planning and developing since 2010.

Meanwhile. just less than 2 weeks ago, SEGA filed a new Trademark for Mobile technology and mini electronics called "Tokio Technology" :

Indicating that they are planning on entering the mobile market, and of course, it gets ignored.

Except the WiiU is actually a fantastic console that's already starting to build steam. So yeah.

The Wii U won't be in production after 2015.

Also, Iwata will soon be deposed as CEO.


Besides, Nintendo UK just confirmed the new console rumor as false. PureNintendo, was already dismissing it.
The. GBF project won't be unveiled until this summer.


Meanwhile, Sega can prepar their major business shift. Hopefully, AFTER the Golden Week Business Holiday, they'll REVEAL everything.

God it never ends with you. You've been saying this since 2011 and everything it's "this is when they'll reveal everything!" and then they don't because it's not happening.
