Fuzzer1 Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Just saw an International Business Times article which said according to Japanese sources we may get info on October 21, the 5th anniversary of the very first Nintendo Direct. Take it with a grain of salt indeed. Kezay and DLurkster 2 Quote Link to comment

SuperNintendoPower Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 An NX rumor being true is about as likely as entering a loving relationship with a famous movie star. It could happen, but it won't. Quote Link to comment

Umlaut Mannerjee Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 I saw this appear in Twitter and it just oozed clickbait. I'm perfectly happy to sit back and chill until such time as Nintendo announce the unveiling themselves. Quote Link to comment
Xenocity Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 IBT should be taken with a huge grain of salt. They also called Splatoon "Baby's first shooter!" Quote Link to comment
DLurkster Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I forgot where I heard this, might of been another podcast about when the NX reveal announcement will take place but I recall that someone guessing that it makes sense for the shareholder to be the first to know what's going on with the NX, later this month. From there it is anyones guess if we'll shortly hear when the NX reveal will be. As most said, I believe when I see it. I'm tired of the waiting so whenever this this suppose to happen I'll be there can't gurantee the hype, (tho it is mentioned a lot why be hyped for something we know nothing about?) I guess I was hyped on the belief in change Nintendo taking their first step relevancy as whole in the gaming community but all this wait as dull me and whatever it is, I don't care at the moment. I'll be there but I can't say how I feel after what we me learn about NX. Quote Link to comment
Punchy Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I'm working on it... look at the security I have to deal with here... Why the 21st. Why not the 26th/27th? That's my guesstimate when I'll finally break through. luigitornado 1 Quote Link to comment

This is a company that is literally incapable of remembering anniversaries that aren't attached to Mario, Zelda, or Kirby. A company that has spent the better parts of years forgetting that Nintendo Directs exist. Do you really think that they'd consider a date for this particular reason? Quote Link to comment

Penance Fracture Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 That'd be disastrously funny if the NX straight up launched on 21 October. You get like, a one-hour video breaking it down, and then at the end: "Oh, by the way, this is available now. Good luck". Quote Link to comment
Iridium Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 21 minutes ago, Punchy said: FY Q2 2016 shareholders meeting? That's a perfectly viable reason, sure. That it might share a key anniversary with something Nintendo has continuously proven to care zero about would be purely coincidence, however. Quote Link to comment

Cryptic Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 This is like the crazies who try to predict the end of the world, and when it doesn't happen they just move on and predict another date that also doesn't happen. At this point I'm going to say if there is a rumor about the NX being revealed on X date, it's definitely not going to be that date. Quote Link to comment

Oh, well let's move on to another arbitrary date. Quote Link to comment
L'Arachel Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 NX news will happen when it happens. I stopped paying attention to the rumours ages ago myself. >_> Kezay 1 Quote Link to comment
Kezay Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 We'll see, I'm not holding my breath on it but here's hoping to being surprised in any case. Quote Link to comment
