This is a good idea, but the question is: why bother? Nintendo doesn't really *need* more horsepower than they have right now to make their games. Sure, some games like Xenoblade X would be better for it, but is it really going to change how the games are made? Doubt it.
So then one would suggest that the only need parity for the other platforms to get third party multiplats. But then the question comes as why anyone would buy this hypothetical console that gets the multiplats, when you have a Wii-U level handheld that has a large library of Nintendo games.
What Nintendo wants above all else is to be able to make 1 game rather than 2. No more Mario Kart 7 and Mario Kart 8. It's redundant and a strain on resources, when you could make Mario Kart 9 and Animal Crossing, instead of having to make Mario Kart 9 and 10 and no Animal Crossing (while the former draws in more diverse crowd)
