There has been a lot of speculation going on about Nintendo's new console, the Nintendo NX. Nintendo has been pretty tightlipped about any and all details, but they might have just given fans a clue ... from Amiibo?

According to Twinfinite, a Reddit fan noticed that Nintendo UK and Nintendo France's websites listed three Amiibo from Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Amiibo is usually available on or soon after the release of their game.

From there, it wasn't long before fans started to speculate that the console will likely be released with the new game. If their guess is right, the new console should be out by March 2017.

However, this still is just a guess, and is not anything concrete. According to DailyStar, the earliest we may hear any actual confirmed details might be in October.

There's been a lot of hype for Nintendo's new console, and for good reason. There have been several leaks and hints dropped online which have gotten fans genuinely excited to use the console.

According to Express UK, a patent leaked online for the NX suggests that it could have customizable buttons layouts. It's also been said that the NX will have the ability to run smartphone games, and even have an augmented reality feature.

It's speculated that the NX will combine the best of both worlds between home consoles and handhelds consoles. They say that players will be able to detach controllers from the handheld screen, then plug it into their television.

As you can see, there are a lot of rumors, really more rumors than anyone can count, about the new console. If anything, would this mean that Nintendo's NX will be able to evenly match the Playstation 4 Pro and the Xbox One Scorpio? It will probably depend on whether the fans think it is worth all the hype the came before it.
