Nintendo NX price and other information might have just leaked

While Nintendo remains mum about the NX, details and rumours keep popping up nearly every day.

The latest rumour comes from the Nintendo NX subreddit. The page has information about the price, bundles, launch titles, and more.

Marketing
“Interact with your game on the go.” phrase seen on a poster.
Strong co-branding effort with a Mario launch title on many posters.
Console is currently set to launch with least 4 titles on deck.
Stores should be receiving demo units around February.
Base price point seems to be sitting at $299.99

Bundle
The NX is currently set to have a bundle option.
The contents of this bundle is currently unknown.
Bundle price is currently sitting at $399.99

Packaging
The packaging for the NX will be slightly larger than the Wii U’s packaging.
The packaging is relatively clean and simple and is similar to the Wii U in terms of package design.
The color scheme for the packaging is white and blue (compared to the Wii U’s blue and black).
The packaging still says “NX” however there is still no indication if this is a placeholder or the final name.
The areas of the packaging that would usually depict the hardware were blurred and redacted by Nintendo in attempt to keep it hidden.

Apparently the console will be marketed with 1080p 60fps for gameplay and 4K streaming for apps like Netflix. More information is available on the Reddit post. Nintendo is expected to release the Nintendo NX in March 2017.
