It will launch around March of 2017. More than likely after the launch of the PS4K.

Dead on arrival.

The only way I can be convinced to get this is either a Kid Icarus or Hyrule Warriors game

No one realizes that if this comes out aftern then PS4K ,, it will more than likely not sell well due to what could be a lack of hardware

Nintendo fucking up all over again

The PS4K has little to no influence on it. Nintendo's issue isn't centered upon rendering capabilities. It's an embarrassment, but the issue is the fact that the consoles are centered on gimmicky hardware (motion controls, giant TV gamepads, etc...) that no one outside (and likely some inside) Nintendo can and wants to develop for. In terms of consumers, it's like the Kinect: it was neat and gained some initial popularity for being different, but no one (on a large scale) wants it in the long run.

Is this like the Wii-U 2.0? Or is it a brand new console altogether?

If it ain't up to par with Sony's machine, you can bet 3rd part devs will leave it alone again.

Completely new concept. Not an extension of the Wii, Wii U, or DS.

TBH Can anyone tell me what's so bad about this other than the system coming next year?

Literally nothing coming out this year.

Colosseum remake when?

Why is a visually upgraded PS4 that so many people won't care about the NX killer?

I personally hope Nintendo avoids gimmicks but I don't count them out until they show what they've been working on. And coming out next year isn't bad either.

Also not true. Where are you getting your information?
It has to be on par with the original PS4. Devs can't release any game for PS4 that doesn't conform to the oldest version of the console's hardware. The PS4K has seriously no impact on anything.

Inb4 a dust bowl of an exclusives library for 2 years after release because they focused on starting 9th gen early without studios getting used to the architecture

It wont be, the NX is going to be its own killer.

Hardware aside, what does Nintendo have to release with it? We already know the answer to this, the same shit they've been cooking up for forty years, and now people are finally waking up and realizing this. Pokemon? That title's home will always be on mobile so unless the NX is nothing BUT gimmicks, fat chance. Smash? Wow because that's not a sinking ship at all. Mario/Zelda/Metroid? The latter two might be reasonable depending on what they do with them, but considering the face of Nintendo is a forty year old game series that has no place in modern times, they wont drop their plumber as fast as they should.

The NX will be shit for the same reason the Wii-U was until last year: Nothing worth playing. The Wii-U's only saving grace was Xenoblade Chronicles, weeab trash. All those remakes and remasters of classic games are pointless since Nintendrones would probably rather bust out their N64 they've kept in pristine condition and play the originals instead.
