It'll definetely be interesting to see how a unified Nintendo system stacks up and how much it'll sell. If it only sells to the Nintendo fan base, then I think we can subtract all the 3DS sales...

Why would we subtract the 3DS sales? What would happen to make them not move forward?

Like I said, if this thing ONLY speaks to the Nintendo fans, the loyalists, then it stands to reason that it won't fare any better than Wii U; 95% of people that's bought the Wii U are the fans, and it goes to show how big that fan base is, thus, why would we expect the Fusion to sell better if only fans bought it? I don't know if I make any sense, but do you understand what I'm trying to say?

This thing needs to sell to as many people as possible, that's all I'm trying to say.

I just don't get why u are throwing 3DS sales out of the equation, these new devices will essentially be Nintendo's next gen handheld plus a TV version of it that share a library. 3DS and every previous Nintendo handheld has gotten solid 3rd party support, mostly niche Japanese titles along with child-friendly licensed games. With this formula 3DS has been able to sell 50 million in just under 4 years and will go on to sell something like 65m or so. If Nintendo releases these devices at the right price with the right marketing and the right games then there is no reason to believe they will only sell 15m combined, it just doesnt make sense.
