Nintendo patents ideas for an upgradeable console
Let’s face it: the NX and anything having to do with Nintendo’s next console has got everyone on edge these days. We’re all eager for more information, or even a name drop, but Nintendo has done a great job keeping its lips sealed about the upcoming project. However, that doesn’t mean that no information is getting out there!
In the form of patents, fans of developers can be given possible insights to these companies’ futures, and while a patent is by no means a reliable source for what’s to come, it does allow for speculation. Recently, Nintendo has patented a console that can be upgraded with a supplemental computing device, meaning an external device that connects to the console, effectively allowing it to process information faster, run faster, or run at a higher resolution.

New Nintendo patent surfaces with freeform display
Hot off the heels of the last patent reveal that showed what could be shared computing for consoles, a new patent from Nintendo seems to suggest a controller-like device with a display that’s free-floating within it.
While it’s impossible to say if either of these two new patents that have surfaced over the last weeks are related to the Nintendo NX, it remains a possibility. However, fans should realize that Nintendo is still working on their Quality of Live initiative originally announced by Satoru Iwata, so we could be seeing handheld devices that are related to that.
