Rumor: NX to have some motion controller support.
wiimote may work with it as well.

Of course. Its me.
Devil May Cry is 15 years old today!!!
One of the most revolutionary games ever. Masterpiece.
I only played the first game.
I remember the commercial for it. Some guy was playing Devil May Cry and ended up destroying the room in his house because he was using Dante's sword.
SUPER MARIO MAKER LEVELS:
Happy 15th anniversary Devil May Cry. Hopefully we'll see a new one soon.
I wish they would have let Ninja Theory do another one. They were on the right path with the reboot.
I'm just going to copy paste that Xbox Onesie article here, because it's just too good not to:
First there was Xbox One. Now, there's Xbox Onesie.
Sure, you can play games on your Xbox One. But does it have pockets? Does it have a hood? Can it keep you warm? (Actually, yes my Xbox can get pretty warm but you'd have to hug it and it has kind of sharp corners so this probably isn't a great idea).
Enter the Xbox Onesie.
Microsoft has created this official branded all-in-one outfit just for you - yes you - to lounge on your sofa and eat pizza in. Or, if you're one of the models below, to stand/sit/pretend to play games in an absolutely realistic way.
Here's the rundown of all the special features: large pockets for your Xbox pad and Media Remote, arm pouch for your mobile, rollable arms/legs if things get sweaty, "forearm grips", extra-large hood to hide your shame.
You can even get your Gamertag embroidered on, for the unlikely situation where more than one person in a household has one and you need to tell the difference from something other than the stains.
Microsoft has so far only announced the Xbox Onesie in Australia (thanks, Press-Start) but we're hoping to hear about a UK release soon.
Your move, Sony.
I don't think I'd go that far. It was a really good Castlevania meets Resident Evil inspired adventure game. But one of the most revolutionary games ever? Maybe its just me but there was at least 15 games on the PS2 alone around that time I enjoyed more. I do need to get around to vthe HD version though.
Regarding NX. So the Hot Chips show, had the Tegra 2 and PX2 system on display. A little more info, it can scale up to 8 teraflops (confirmed) but that is 2 Pascal GPUs plus 2 Tegra 2s.
The Parker chip itsel has the same number of cuda cores as the X1. It's main performance improvements are a doubling in memory bandwidth and energy efficiency. There was a German article saying in terms of flops it has a 50% gain over the X1.
So at this point it depends on whether Nvidia would use FP 16 or FP32.
FP16 could push the Parker chip to 1.25 eraflops. But if it's FP32 it could be half that. Of course these are made for car navigation autonomous driving. Nvidia did say it potentially had gaming applications too, especially regarding VR and AR.
Nintendo would likely use a custom chip anyway. Worst case scenario is an X1, still several times more powerful than Wii U.
So a BBC Live reporter was doing an Olympics news piece live to camera when there were two people behind him on the beach having sex:

I read the article. No way Nintendo is using this for the portable part of the NX. Have you seen the size of the silicon?
Something very interesting concerning X1, X2 compatability: apparently the X2 uses 256 Cuda cores, which would mean the build of the chip is neigh identical to the X1, which would make changing out an X1 for an X2 as easy as plug and play. In the comments the NX was touched upon as a reason for this, instead of upping the core count to 382.
Just read that the Splatoon Testfire is back. So anyone with a WiiU can play Turfwars for free up to September the 1st.
Is this you, Supreme?

You sure thats not the PX2 motherboard with 2 GPUs + 2 Tegras on it?
If the fabrication method is smaller the X2 should be a similar or smaller size than the X1 chip.
Lol, no. I don't do NeoGaf. And if I would, I'd go by SupremeAC, not some poor substitute like that. I'm also lucky that my best friend still games a lot, even if it's on PC.
The reply from that Krang fellow cracked me up though: 'Don't ask us. We don't play games, either. '
Yeah, you're right. it's the PX2 motherboard, you can even spot the 2 CPU's.
NX event Sept 13th?
September 13th, 2006: Wii event (note it was 9PM EST on the 13th when it the event was in Japan)
September 13th, 2011: 3DS event
September 13th, 2012: Wii U event
I hope they have something like that on September 13th.
I would probably miss it as I would be on vacation at the time so no wifi.

Are you out in the woods? What about 3g/4g?
I don't want to waste my data.
Also I would be at the beach the whole time so I might not be interested.
