Why do any of you think the next generation will be on the NX/Switch?

3DS
\
Switch
/
WiiU

>Literally what gives you the idea the next true instalment a.k.a Gen 8, will be on it?

Well Nintendo's handhelds find it harder and harder to compete with phones.

If the NX portable console flops, it's Nintendo goes mobile time.

>>29318070
Game Freak in particular will be developing.

>>29318070
The fact nintendo has merged their handheld and home console system and said that the switch came to replace both the wii u and the 3ds

Nintendo CEO Tatsumi Kimishima: "The NX won't simply replace the WiiU or the 3DS"

>>29318070
That's a man with a May wig isn't it?

>>29318134
literally said the opposite, they said it won't replace them.

>>29318135
Because its not replacing one of them,its replacing both

>>29318135
When it was only known as the NX. A tweet from six months ago.

You think Nintendo can afford support for three different systems? No fucking way. They're struggling as it is.

>>29318179
He would surely start some bullshit about,evolution and merging instead of replacement,but we know well what the switch is,you might not like it but it is the next handheld and home console from nintendo and generation 8 will be on it

>>29318070
Because it's the next Nintendo handheld console.You must be delusional if you think gen 8 will be in the 3ds

I could see the DS possibly living on as a periphrial. But that's a "Best case scenario for DS line" situation, and involves it becoming a shell of itself, mostly just a second controller so families can get all their kids their own "system", and that would only be if the switch is absurdly expensive

So either way, yeah, we'll be making the Switch
