"We do not plan on talking specifics about the the NX until 2016," Iwata said (via IGN).

"Presently, we cannot talk about the time period when it will go on sale or what it's like. Because we are calling it a 'new concept', we are not thinking of this as a 'simple replacement' for the 3DS or the Wii U."

He added: "Incidentally, we're getting various questions for this year's E3, like 'Won't there be a NX announcement?' 'Will there be a presentation on smart devices?' or 'Will there be more on the quality of life platform?'

"However, since we understand that E3 is an event for dedicated video game machines, we do not intend to discuss the smart devices as well as quality of life."

What to Read Next

Instead, the company will focus on software and content for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS during the upcoming expo, which is due to be held between June 16-18.

Iwata recently suggested that Nintendo is looking to scrap region-locking for NX.
