If you've somehow fallen behind with the flurry of Nintendo NX rumours that have been circulating the internet lately, well, frankly this reporter envies you. Nevertheless it's our duty to report them when there's some credibility to them, and so we've once more taken all that's happened in the past week (rumours and all) and condensed it all down into video form.
This week we look at the wild array of Nintendo NX Rumours, some software that allows you to stream 3DS footage directly to a computer, and the usual selection of releases and reviews.

The streaming to PC need to be an official feature. I'd even buy a new 3ds xl same day the firmware is released. Needs to be a feature for all Nintendo handhelds even if its an optional HDMI dongle. O hope we see something official on nx soon. I'm not sold on vr yet so I'll probably be Nintendo only next console round.
The face where Miyamoto is like ???? in the preview for this vid is literally me anytime someones like NX RUMORS!!!!! Nintendolife aka Rumorlife.
Can tell what time it is by the rate of rumors- E3 is getting closer. And this is gonna be a great E3. Get to see VR and what it brings to the table, get to see NX and how Nintendo plans to bring it for a new generation, get to see Zelda U/NX, The Last Guardian and the lead-up to the FFXV launch. Gonna have all kinds of awesome new announcements for NX, for 3DS, for PS4 and X1 (Vita I've lost all hope for- nothing ever gets announced for it at E3).
But uh, ya. Exciting times.
Wow you can stream on 3DS? Must look into this. Do you need to mod?
More rumors just means less articles for me to click since I stopped caring about them last year lol.
Honestly, I'm impressed. I remember the Wii and Wii U rumor mill like it was yesterday (and a little bit of Gamecube). I remember most of the information starting out very positive for both, and then devolving into "this system isn't very powerful". I don't see that happening with this system, and that's really promising. All of the rumors have been pretty awesome. By now, I would have expected to see "this console isn't very powerful" from some random person. This is really promising.
A great Nintendo Life Weekly!
And thank you for showing the comedic stylings of the late Rik Mayall
@Iggly
But you did click this rumor just to come here and tell us you haven't cared about rumors for year...Seems contradictory..just saying..
@zeldazero Not really, I came here for the usual Nintendo Life Weekly.
I got a new NX rumor
It plays games, it uses electricity, it has plastic and a circuit board.
The wait is long and full of rumours.
NO! How could you, Alex?! The poor Yarn Yoshi...
First item of business: haircut!
@Solid_Stannis Way to kill your own daughter, Stannis.
Keep the rumours coming,report them all.Love reading the comments sections under them haha.
@Clownshoes Yep,Galaxy and Pikmin were terrible ideas,whatever was he thinking! Honestly comments like yours do my head in.
You hit Yoshi!
@Cesium06
It seems you only visit this Nintendo site if you would have NOT heard the usual "this system isn't powerful enough" being thrown around about the NX.
Not long ago "NX can only do 900p" was the buzz on the game sites.
Like you I remember the Wii and Wii U rumours, especially the Wii u rumours. What I remember most is developers saying "how powerful it was" before launch. I remember the same devs saying "how rubbish it was" after it was released.
Unlike you I don't believe the NX would be any different. Nintendo are Nintendo. They no longer do powerful consoles. They do gimmicks.
It's the gimmick that excites me, not it's power, or should I say, it's lack of power.
As you watch this, the New 3DS streaming NTR 3.4 hack has already been updated with improved frame rates in the Preview 2 version.
As for Luigi's Mansion 3 on NX. Don"t think so.
I recall it took three years to get Luigi's Mansion 2 out for the 3DS.
@Hotfusion But we know the source of the NX can only do 900p rumors. We know it was from a leaked questionnaire sent out to groups of people for marketing, and we know it was not produced by Nintendo. During the Wii U rumor period, there were a lot of rumors about how powerful the system was and a few rumors saying how weak the console was. I really don't see that same kind of attitude from developers regarding the power of the system. They are the ones that usually leak how strong or weak the system is.
And I think we will see 900p, but streaming to the handheld. Why else would a maximum resolution be stated? It doesn't really make any sense to state a maximum resolution since developers are free to have a higher resolution and lower polygon/shader count. However, a screen can certainly can have a cap, and I believe that 900p we heard about is the cap of streaming.
Of course, it's all speculation. I'm pretty impartial. I've grown up, and I've come to accept companies as they are. I also have a computer science degree, and I understand a bit of the tech. However, with the passing of Iwata-san, I believe we will see a new era of Nintendo. I think they realize that the only way to really stay in this industry is competing with their rivals.
We will see what happens in about 2 months .
@Cesium06
That is it right there. The Iwata factor. This is what we discussed a while back - maybe it was another forum.
This is the difference this time around. No Iwata. But...
Is it really an Iwata or Nintendo factor?
I argued it is a Nintendo factor and nothing will change. Others believe with Iwata's passing things will be different.
I hope you and the others are right and I am wrong.
@Cesium06 this just in:
NX not very powerful.
jk
@Peterocity Haha, this is certainly a possible outcome
@Cesium06 sadly now i believe it
