If I took every NX rumor with a grain of salt, I'd be dead of dehydration. The temptation is high, but it's best to avoid overdosing on delicious salt.

Meanwhile, I'm debating whether it's worth watching the upcoming Dragon Quest stream to see if Square "accidentally" leaks any more news. Or if not, then just to enjoy footage of the system's first announced single player game.

Probably not, because if there are any slips, it will be all over the Nintendo news sites when you wake up.

Don't ever trust Square Enix to deliver. I knew that and was still disappointed.

Oh, and DQ XI probably isn't coming out until 2017. So scratch that off probable launch titles.

...Why would you expect info on a port(that was denied after and said to be them hoping to have it on the system after PS 4/3DS launch) of a game that we were told before hand wouldn't have a major presence on the stream? This is the year of FFXV to SE with all marketing focus being on selling PS 4's for future games+minor titles like the western release of BS and other games. Next year is the year of KH 3, FFVIIR and what looks to be the launch of DQXI(for PS 4 and 3DS unless that version gets cancelled)and DQHII. Unless SE are hiding a ton of games by never before seen studios and directors they have nothing planned for Wii U/3DS/NX outside of what they've announced.

I actually had a (mild) nightmare that the NX portable's real name was revealed and that it was the Master New Nintendo 3DS XL.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was the MEW(Master Entertainment Window)what with the pokémon anniversary.

I still think the best console that can ever be announced is the Super Playstation. Imagine Sony and Nintendo finally joining forces to save consoles in Japan and what an amazing library that console would have.

I only now realized that the X in "NX" could stand for "cross", no wonder that the handheld-home console-hybrid theory is the most popular.

No, it stands for Nintendo X-Box.

[up][up]Seeing how the logo for Monster Hunter X apparently is supposed to be read as "Monster Hunter Cross" that makes it a possibility.

Also Japan seems to like those kinds of names.

I didn't expect news, but I expected the stream to have new something, anything.

[up][up] And Xenoblade Chronicles X is called Xenoblade Chronicles Cross in Japan.

Digmon Xwars is pronounced Digimon "Cross" Wars as well.

Honestly, how would anybody know that X would be pronounced "cross?" Unless they put cross in the fine print in the title? That'd be like if I made a game called Super Kid G, but the G was supposed to be pronounced as "Banana." Would you be able to make that guess?

Whatever X-ing signs exist in America and the X is pronounced "cross" there. It's not completely unfounded like your example.

At this point, it's also an accepted quirk of Japanese naming conventions.

Not to mention that a cross is a shape that literally is defined as "two lines crossing each other"

Now what letter is two lines crossing each other?
