Nintendo NX: 8 Rumours That Would Dominate Xbox One & PS4

5. It's Backwards Compatible With The Wii U

The Wii U's problem was never its games. Over the course of its relatively brief three-year lifespan, the Wii U has released a massive host of critically acclaimed titles, including Bayonetta 2, Super Smash Bros Wii U, Mario Kart 8, The Legend Of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD, Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, Splatoon €“ and that's honestly just the beginning.

If rumours are to be believed (and Nintendo's usual trend is followed) the NX will be fully backwards compatible with the Wii U, meaning those who were on the fence about buying a Wii U in the first place will be able to reap the benefits of a fantastic back catalogue. It's practically like buying two consoles for the price of one.
