The Nintendo NX is Nintendo's next console release. The system utilizes pairing of both a Nintendo-developed console and a mobile phone which, during gameplay, acts as a controller. The phone is the first of its kind, with a 3-dimensional screen similar to Nintendo's handheld gaming system, the 3DS. Nintendo partnered with mobile platforming company DeNA to create the operating system for the mobile device.
The mobile device features apps for Games, Music, Video Chat (which functions similar to Wii U Chat), texting, phonecalls, and the eShop, which has been expanded to include games, music, movies & TV shows, and apps. The system comes with a headgear functioning similarly to Oculus Rift in that game experiences are surround-view.
Currently, eight games have been announced for the system.
