Rumor Mill Breath Of The Wild Lists Cartridges As Medium Confirms Nx Rumor The Legend Of Zelda Breath Of The Wild

While we know for a fact that “downloadable” and “video game discs” are likely referring to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’s Wii U version, what we don’t know is what “video game cartridges” and “video game memory cards” references. It could be very well possible that these reference the Nintendo NX, a console already rumored to have cartridges - and is confirmed by GameStop as having a physical medium.

Further evidence supporting the idea that the NX (and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild by extension) will have cartridge media is that the patent for Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE does not have it listed. However, one counter argument to this patent is that Ever Oasis also lists “video game discs” (see below) as a medium for the game, despite being a 3DS title.

Remember, as always these are simply rumors until confirmed. While a US patent seems like a legitimate source, their text-based format can be forged. Until a source directly links to the patents themselves, these images are to be taken with a grain of salt.
