It Is, In Fact, a Home/Mobile Hybrid Console
One of the biggest details that circled around the NX over the past few months was the fact that it was a home/mobile hybrid console. That means you can take it with you when you’re out and about, but then dock it (or something of that nature) so you could enjoy true home gaming. It sounded a bit far-fetched, but the Pokemon Company recently confirmed it.
According to the company’s CEO, Tsunekazu Ishihara, “The NX is trying to change the concept of what it means to be a home console device or a handheld device.” At the same time, Ishihara confirmed that The Pokemon Company is indeed working on a game for the console, adding credence to a report from just a month earlier. It’s not clear if it will be a full-fledged Pokemon game in the vein of, say, Sun and Moon, but that’s exciting news for fans who have been crying out for a console game in that universe.
