some nx news and rumors have arrived...

Nintendo is working on a new account service called My Nintendo, which will hopefully work a lot more like Sony and Microsoft’s respective services that tie purchases to an online account, rather than a hardware console. Anyone who has had their Wii U or Nintendo 3DS fail or need to be sent in for repairs knows how time-consuming it is to be on the phone with Nintendo to get the transfers going.
It makes sense that Nintendo is developing a platform that can work in tandem with the mobile apps they’re developing, but the fact that it’s possible Nintendo’s latest console could also work with the PlayStation 4 in some manner means Microsoft should be especially worried.
The best indication we have of this is Square Enix’s willingness to port Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn to Nintendo’s console. Currently the game is PC and PS4 compatible and PC and PS4 players regularly play together on the same server. Adding Nintendo to the mix would mean Microsoft is the odd man out in such relationships going forward. source
