Nintendo NX release to come sooner than expected; latest updates on specs, price, and more

Nintendo, a Japanese tech company, is said to be releasing a new gaming console, Nintendo NX. As to the specs of the console release, Nintendo has remained silent and there is no clear information regarding its unveiling. As time passed with only silence, the anticipation of the fans has also been rising for the console.

Launch Rumors

Because of the lack of information regarding the specs of the Nintendo NX, theories are already formulated by some fans. There are even those who go too far to believe that next week is the launch.

According to Polygon, pizza delivery chain Papa John's posted a tweet of a pizza box shadow with a caption "Something Better is Coming. 10/10/16." Since Papa John's is a pizzeria, the tweet is most probably pizza related but some of those who commented on the post actually thought that it was related to the release of the NX. But as the news outlet pointed out, the food company wouldn't know anything about the Nintendo NX.

Nintendo Live has reported that Steven Williams, a popular Youtuber, may have shared something about the Nintendo NX. In Arlington, Texas, during a Q & A interview at the Retropalooza, Williams seems to have confirmed the NX is a hybrid console, as has been reported several times.

Williams relayed that the machine's programming is "really nice" and that "the concept is great", as he cited sources who have played with the console including a Ubisoft employee. In addition, Williams said, "Someone else I know who has played on NX for twenty minutes says it's as innovative as they'd hoped and [said] that 'we wish that we had done it.'"

What is currently known about the NX are the five confirmed game titles. The release date of the Nintendo NX is set to be in March 2017.
