From the leaks/rumors we have now, all games made for PS4 have to be compatible with Neo and vice versa, its likely that Microsoft will have a similar policy. If that is the case than power is no excuse for 3rd parties to exclude NX if it is somewhere around XBO/PS4 level of power.

Yep on that point you would be correct. But seeing that doing a PS4Neo and X1Scorpio version would only need a small scale down to fit on compatible PS4 and X1 instead of a compleate new version to run on NX that could make it a difficult step for NX. And from Iwata talk some months ago there is even the possibility that NX is weaker than PS4, and the difference is that it's a lot harder to ignore the market leader that puts a lot of 3rd party sales than to the newcomer from a platform that struggles to sell 3rd party.

wouldnt that same hold true if NX were as powerful as Neo/Scorpio?

Simple scale up/down from/to PS4/XBO & Neo/Scorpio being compared to completely new version for NX.

You were saying that NX being less powerful than Neo/Scorpio would be a problem for 3rd parties but are now agreeing that 3rd parties likely wont give strong support regardless so power really is not the issue.
