Analysts: Nintendo could launch NX console as early as October this year

What an admission that the Wii U is a failure and a gimmick that would be!

im betting its a return to cartridges.


for nintendos sake!

I can't see Nintendo going back to cartridges for a standard console. (Mobile consoles like the Gameboy and DS are a different story.) There is no reason to switch back.

While it's possible to match the capacity of an optical disc with some sort of cartridge, the cost differential is significant. Costs for optical discs are measured in cents. Costs for cartridges are measured in dollars.

I actually like the Wii U. It's a shame developers and fanboys of the other consoles slam it. There's enough original first party content to merit having this system. I can't say that's the case with the PS4 or Xbox One, where they are nearly clones of each other.

I agree with SProdigy. The Wii U is a great system for children and adults. The system also has multiplayer games you can online or with your family at home.
