Now there's so many rumors regarding NX lately (like way more than we normally see before a console reveal and we generally have tons of them) that I don't feel the need to post most, but this one caught my attention just because there seems to be so many others posting independently pretty similar info.
A supposed game dev working on a game for NX using Unreal Engine 4 has supposedly leaked some information about the console. This person says it is a home console, with at least 2 games being developed for it using Unreal Engine 4. (one of them being their game, one being a first party Nintendo title, and possibly others as well) They also said that it is using ARM architecture, not x86, and will be slightly more powerful than PS4. (with the CPU being about 30% more powerful, and GPU being about 50% more powerful, with 12GB of RAM, 9 of which being used for Nintendo OS, the console's operating system) The supposed leaker also stated that the console will be named "Nintendo Extra" shortened to "NEX."
So this is interesting. I honestly don't really believe it, but with how many people seem to be leaking this same information I figured it deserved a thread. Extra doesn't sound like a name Nintendo would use, but I actually kind of like it. It has a nice ring to it, same with it's abbreviation.
