Nintendo NX leaks, rumors: Controller features reveal it's a console's extension, but as powerful as PS4

Nintendo Co., Ltd. is a Japanese multinational consumer electronics and software company headquartered in Kyoto, Japan.

Nintendo NX rumored eaked online photos has made a number of fans excited. However, a Reddit source disallowed both of the supposed Nintendo NX renders, and instead showed another set of details regarding the forthcoming console.

A Nintendo NX information was revealed in the Reddit post from user stimpak_vendor. The user claims to be an AAA developer who actually works with a NX development kit. According to him, he continued to conduct an AMA regarding the Nintendo NX. With all these Nintendo NX related rumors, the largest hint would be the detail that the upcoming console is going to be powerful like the PS4.

According to the source of both of the leaked images, which were later disallowed, the two items were less elliptical in their shape. It was more like the NES controller, although it appeared to have the touch screen interface. However, an additional information hinted that the controller was not intended to play whole games by itself. Rather, the Nintendo NX controller was made to  be the console's extension, just like the second screen of the 3DS and DS.

Considering that the source of these rumors could not give anything more specific about Nintendo NX, it is reportedly best not to take these rumors seriously. In fact, there are even some details that appear to be contradicting, like the  information about the 1080p controller screen which, if true, would make the Nintendo NX too expensive for a console.

Another contradicting key factor is the rumor that the processor manufacturer AMD is currently developing a console this year. Because the Xbox One and PS4 consoles that use an AMD processor have already been in the world of gaming, it only points to the likelihood that the AMD is collaborating with Nintendo. The fact only means, if luck comes to this, a new console will be arriving before this year ends from the Japanese company, Screen Rant reported.

Nintendo NX, reportedly, may not even be named as such when that release event comes, but it has been deemed safe to assume that Nintendo is developing something that could bring some radical changes to the way the games are played, just like when Wii turned its focus to the active play in 2000.
