In Time‘s recent article, 14 Things Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima Told Us, additional vague details about Nintendo’s forthcoming NX platform and what it means for Nintendo’s current platforms have come to light.  Unfortunately, there’s still no clear picture of exactly what the NX platform is going to be.

First Impressions of the Surface Pro 4 Type Cover and Pen Upgrades for Surface Pro 3

Oct 26, 2015
