Barring Delays, NX Currently has the Least Time Between Reveal and Launch of any Nintendo Console
Posted on September 23 2016 by Darrin W. Harr
Here’s an interesting Nintendo NX tidbit for you. The system currently has the least time between reveal and launch of any Nintendo console, as pointed out by NeoGAF user Empyrean Heaven. This would change if it were to be delayed, however. NX is scheduled to launch in March—that much we know. Let us assume it will, at the latest, launch on March 31st. If NX is revealed, at the earliest, tomorrow on the 24th of September, there would be a gap of six 6 months and 7 days. The Nintendo DS was revealed on May 11, 2004 at Nintendo’s E3 2004 conference, and later launched on November 21, 2004. That’s a 6 month and 10 day gap.
While this doesn’t particularly mean anything other than Nintendo is being very secretive, it is a fun factoid for those interested. Hopefully we’ll be hearing official NX news soon. After all, Nintendo said they would be revealing it in the fall, and yesterday was the first day of the season. Anyways, let us know what you think of this fact in the comments below.
