The highly anticipated reboot of the Nintendo gaming console, which is being named the Nintendo NX, could easily reach 30 million installs after its release, according to a famous gaming analyst.
Michael Pachter, an industry expert who has made various predictions and analyses, says that the Nintendo NX could see a 60 percent chance of success and will easily sell 30 million installs right away, according to Gaming Bolt.
A big factor to Nintendo NX's success would be on account of its 'convergence device' status as reports have indicated that the gaming console is to be a hybrid of home and mobile devices. When launched, the NX will offer an experience completely different from what Xbox One and PS4, which gives it an edge considering it's been two years since the launch of Microsoft and Sony's latest consoles, and they are completely identical.
According to Yibada, Nintendo has also dropped clues that they will not be replacing any of the 3DS and Wii U when NX is unboxed, but the plan is to create a machine device that will overpower competitors.
Per Crossmap, Nintendo is currently working with the chipmakers to develop a chip that adheres to the x86 and ARM standard.
Youth Health Magazine also adds, that along with the launching of the Nintendo NX console will be games such as "Call of Duty," "FIFA" and "Grand Theft Auto." It is still unknown if Nintendo can win over the support of EA and Capcom, who lost faith in Nintendo after the Wii failed to match their expectations. The Wii U did not feature GTA and FIFA, and analysts are hoping to see it come into the NX picture lest Nintendo wants to 'fail expectations' once more.
Nintendo has continued to stay silent about any direct news pertaining to specs, features, titles and release date of the NX. Although there is much reason to believe that Nintendo will be launching the console before 2016 ends, to catch up with the sales figures that the Wii U could not reach.
