Nintendo NX gets a brand new name and a release date

Nintendo’s upcoming console has been the talk of the town for quite some time now. With a lot of speculations doing rounds throughout the web, the specs of the console, nicknamed ‘NX’ cannot be deciphered clearly, yet.

Nintendo’s previous console, Wii U didn’t manage to excite the fans and somewhat faded with almost no galore in sale numbers. So, NX would be an absolute redemption attempt for the company. From E3, it was pretty clear that The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild would definitely be one of the games in NX. Now, some of the other games have been revealed that will launch with the console.

Now, according to 4chan, titles including The Legend Of Zelda: Breath Of The Wild, Super Smash Bros., Super Smash Bros. Melee, F-Zero^2, Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver will be integrated in the console. However, their official announcement will be made on 21 September, this year. Apart from this, five other game titles will have launch windows with the release of the game, namely Super Mario Focus, Animal Crossing Election Year, Pikmin 4 Pokemon Sun and Moon and Pileow. Dragon Quest 11 has been confirmed for NX.

The report also suggested the console will not be named Nintendo NX but Nintendo Focus and would be launched on 10 March, 2017.

While the reports from the anonymous source are nothing concrete, we’ll have to wait for Nintendo’s official statement to get something to look forward to.
