When will Wii U owners be satisfied enough to accept a new console?

Nintendo should release a new one in 2,5 years from now, on 2016 Holidays.
It should be on par with PS4/XBONE or even more powerfull as the components that we have on those will be much cheaper in 2 years.
Also it should be backwards compatible with WiiU.
This way you could have third party companies back since the development would be the same for SOny/Microsoft and we still would have amazing first party games from Nintendo.

The problem with this idea is said console will be stuck in the same predicament the Wii U is ... no one wants a Wii U because they already have a PS3/360.

By fall 2016 most people will own a PS4 or XBox One, and not only that but both systems will have hundreds of games available for them whereas the hypothetical Nintendo console will be starting with like 12-16 games at best. 

In other words, it won't be any different from whats happening with the Wii U, only the most die-hard Nintendo fans will buy it. 

No one will care about Wii U backwards compatibility either, lol. 

You had me until that last line, which is quite presumptuous.  If anything, WiiU software deserves more exposure than it will likely receive on the console.  This conversation here is very interesting regarding WiiU's successor and backwards compatibility:
