I heard the NX was basically an Ouya??

I heard the NX was basically an Ouya??

From my understanding it's suppose to be a device that bridges together gaming/membership accounts among tablets, smartphones, PCs, Wii U, and the 3DS. The only thing we don't know is if the NX is a console, a portable handheld, or a hybrid of both. We're not gonna get a clear answer until sometime next year anyway.

It'll certainly be interesting to see what their new console is.  Hopefully they'll have learned some lessons from the WiiU, too.  Granted, it doesn't have to be another Xbox or PlayStation - they have their niches, and Nintendo can have its own, too... but they need to figure out what that niche is first... before they come out with yet another console.

This isn't about video games, but since it is related to Nintendo (sad news unfortunately) I figured I would post it here anyway. Nintendo President Satoru Iwata died this weekend from cancer (bile duct). He was 55 years old.

55 is young! That's so sad.

I have a ambiio "Gold Mario"  NIB.

[toxictwister00]

I traded in my Xbox One this past Friday to Gamestop for store credit which I used to pay 2/3 of the cost toward a Playstation 4 instead. I really liked the Xbox One, but I didn't love it. Ah well, I took a risk/chance since I never played/owned any Xbox system prior it just didn't pay off for me unfortunately.

I don't have a complete list... but here's just a few games that I can think of. I have older systems as well, but I'd have to dig out the cartridges to list them (SNES and Sega Genesis... sorry guys, the Genesis is better in my opinion ). I also have an original fat version of the PS2 from when it launched. Still works great, just lost all of my games except for Grand Theft Auto Vice City.

Xbox 360:
-Grand Theft Auto IV
-Grand Theft Auto V
-Fallout New Vegas
-Portal 2 (LOVE LOVE LOVE this game. Hope a Portal 3 comes out!)
-Halo 3
-NHL 13 (Controls suck... as they did in NHL 2015 imo)
-FIFA 13 (Sold... didn't enjoy it at all)
-Doom II: Hell On Earth (I don't own this, but my buddy and I always play this on his house and is a fun port from the old PC version)
-Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare

Xbox One:
-Destiny (All DLCs... LOVE!!)
-Halo Master Collection (Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3 ODST, Halo 4)
-Mortal Kombat X
-Assassins Creed IV: Black Flag
-Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition
-Watchdogs (I personally hate the physics engine so I don't play it much at all)

On my list of games to buy...
-Fallout 4 (Xbox One)
-Halo 5 Guardians (Xbox One... obviously as it's an exclusive )
-Borderlands Handsome Edition (Xbox One)

[curtjr4]

Well, I bought Halo 5: Guardians last night for my Xbox One (as it's an exclusive). I'm very impressed... there's some great additions to the game since Halo 4 and the frame rate is substantially better, and I can tell just from playing. If anyone has an Xbox One on here and is contemplating buying it... I say go for it. It's a lot of fun

I bought digital download of "Dead Island" complete edition PS3.  It's, okay.  Not impressed.

Did you recently just get a Wii U? I don't think the Splatoon bundle has been out that long. Speaking of Splatoon, is it good? I've been on the fence about getting this game since it came out. Splatoon may be the first and only Wii U game where I haven't heard any negative reviews (so far). It's great to see a new first party IP from Nintendo doing so well, hopefully they're experiment with more new IPs. Also half of your Wii U games I've been on the fence about. (Super Mario Maker, Yoshi's Wolly World, DKC: Tropical Freeze, Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker) The only one I think I can guarantee I'll get is Super Mario Maker.

I purchased the Wii U Splatoon bundle at Best Buy on the day it was released. Splatoon is a great and fun game but you need good internet access to enjoy the game as it is mostly an online game. Super Mario Maker is also a fun game as you can spend multiple hours creating levels and playing other people's levels.
