The controller itself is said to include a 6" single touch screen, d-pad, "L and R," two triggers, and "others." The functionality of the Wii's sensor bar has now been integrated into the controller, which would mean that you'd just use your controller as a sensor bar for Wiimote gameplay. It would a sport a front facing camera.
Also, because it's Nintendo we're talking about here, the cost of this controller is said to be "modest" and we shouldn't expect iPad levels of power or performance here. They call it an "iPad with buttons" for lack of a better term. 01net's source also elaborated on the hardware specs of the console itself.

Η σειρά "4" αντίθετα έβαζε φωτιά στις κάρτες γιατί ήταν καυτή από μόνη της. Βέβαια συγκρινόμενη με την GPU του 360 που είναι αντίστοιχη της σειράς "1" (1900ΧΤ ή κάτι παρόμοιο) θα είναι εξαιρετικά γρήγορη. Φυσικά, όταν στα pcs σε λίγους μήνες περιμένουμε τη σειρά "7" αυτό λέει αυτόματα ότι η Ninty θα πάρει τις 4 γενιές κάρτες σχεδόν τσάμπα. Για μείωση του κόστους είναι μια χαρά.Wally είπε:Παντως αν η GPU του, στηριζεται στις Radeon 4000HD (οπως λενε οι φημες) δεν βλεπω να βαζει φωτια στις επιδοσεις. Πολυ συντηρητικη επιλογη την βρισκω για να πας στην 8η γενια...
http://gonintendo.com/viewstory.php?id=156124- Rockstar has a dev kit
- working on GTA V (which is sure to hit PS3/360 as well)
- hoping to have it available at launch
- system still looking at a late 2012 launch (June in Japan is last we heard)
- expect tech demos and some games shown at E3
According to sources with knowledge of the project, Nintendo's next console could have a retail price of anywhere between $350 and $400 based on manufacturing costs, and will ship from Taiwanese manufacturer, Foxconn, this October, putting the earliest possible retail release anywhere between mid-October and early November.
However, Nintendo could also opt to build up a sizable supply of the system and allocate more time for software and games development by launching in early 2012. Similarly, Nintendo could attempt to lower the retail price of the system with lower profit margins to make the price more alluring.
Since the manufacturing is taking place in Taiwan, the earthquakes and tsunami that hit Japan last month will not impact the console hardware as previously expected.
Additionally, IGN has learned that the system will be based on a revamped version of AMD's R700 GPU architecture, not AMD's Fusion technology as previously believed, which will, as previously reported, out perform the PlayStation 3's NVIDIA 7800GTX-based processor. Like the Xbox 360, the system's CPU will be a custom-built triple-core IBM PowerPC chipset, but the clocking speeds will be faster. The system will support 1080p output with the potential for stereoscopic 3D as well, though it has not been determined whether that will be a staple feature.
Δηλαδη οι φημες μιλανε για ενα κουτι που θα μοιαζει με SNES και ουσιαστικα θα ειναι ενα overclocked 360 (triple-core IBM PowerPC και AMD GPU του 2008 ) στα 350 με 400 δολλαρια (ευρω). Σιγουρα θα κανει ζημια στις πωλησεις των αλλων δυο ανταγωνιστων και θα τους κινητοποιησει αλλα θα περιμενα κατι πιο "future-proof"In terms of the design of the console itself, the overall size will be comparable to that of the original Xbox 360 and the system is likely to resemble a modernized version of the Super Nintendo Entertainment System (SNES).
Παντως δεν φαινεται να χρησιμοποιειται ουτε το Cafe ουτε το NES6. Στο διαδικτυο λενε οτι το ονομα του νεου κονσολικου θα ειναι Stream.-Tentative release date of June 2012.-Controller screen resolution of 800x500.
-Can play games, watch movies, and more without turning on the TV by just streaming them to the controllers. Can stream to multiple controllers at once.
