Eurogamer reports that the Nintendo NX will be a portable powerhouse

Eurogamer yesterday threw down a ton of info on the upcoming Nintendo NX system. Many things mentioned have been rumored for a while, but we won't know if this report will be accurate until Nintendo comes out with their official unveiling.

For starters, the system would be like the Razer Edge where it's a screen with controllers on each side. The controllers would be detachable and it would be powered by the mobile chipset, Tegra from NVIDIA.

The NX is also going to be using cartridges, a step back it would seem from something like a DVD. The rumor is Nintendo is looking at 32GB cartridges for the games with support for digital downloads. And you can probably forget about backwards compatibility on this one as well.

It sounds like Nintendo's banking on portability rather than another home dedicated console, although you can plug the NX into your TV if you want to play on the big screen.

We might get word on the system in September, so we'll have to wait and see if what Eurogamer reporting is accurate.
