Question about x86 and PowePC:
Consoles for the last generation of consoles all were PPC. Did "everybody" in the industry see it as a natural progression to take the step to x86?
Did Nintendo miss signs of the time that all others could see?
Did something change during the time from WiiU final arcitechure to Spring 2013 when MS and Sony finalized their new consoles?

Probably

No. They wanted to make weaker hardware because It's cheaper.

IDK

Is x86 a more expensive hardware? 

As all last generation consoles (X360, PS4 and Wii) were PowerPC, development of games software should not be such a big factor either.
