If the same games are playable on both hardware then whats the point of getting both or more accurately one of their hardware offerings will suffer in sales for this, unlike the current situation where you can get both and have different experiences.
Also if nintendo games are tailored to the the hardware then all those different hardware or whatever will essentially have to offer the same experiences, if there is a wiiU situation and people do not accept or generally just do not like what they have offered hardware wise and thier games on it, like the current wiiU tablet, then they will be in very dangerous situation.
Again a very bad business decision.

They are not in the business of selling hardware, they are in the business of selling software.
Also, there will be no issue of rejection because the future consoles will allow multiple forms of input much like the U is doing today. The concern is invalid.

Yes they are in the business of selling software and that is my point, if the hardware is unappealing like the wiiU gamepad and the games are made around the hardware then the software would not sell anyway.
You use the U to back up your case but the WiiU is a perfect example of consumers rejecting the hardware and the software around it. Also you cannot have multiple input methods into a unified system it would not work. For example if a game input method is the wiimote and its strengths how would you play that on the go on another platform?
You cannot just dismiss these concerns as invalid because you would like it to be invalid.
This is a very serious move for nintendo and I think people are underestimating the impact of this if it goes wrong.

No, your point was "bu bu bu if they sell one console but not the other!"
The U was about options, not about sales. Sales have nothing to do with this because the options aren't what made the U fail, it's the lack of software, which the joint architecture is there to address.

You are so confused in your own reality that you are not even seeing my point.
Each point I made was to address a different scenario that nintendo could make, if its one single handheld/home console hybrid or if they are different platforms with the same games.
If you believe that lack of software alone are the only problems wiiU have then you are seriously deluded, the wiiU is failing because nobody cares to play games with the gamepad whether the games are there or not consumers by and large do not care to be playing those games with the gamepad so they are not going to buy the wiiU.
The sooner nintendo realizes this the better, however you can go on believing whatever you would like.
