"Nintendo has no reason to jump the gun again."

What? Nintendo has THE reason to "jump the gun, again." The Wii U is an anchor. The Wii U is actively losing Nintendo money. Whether people like it or not, the Wii U's out of here and fast, and the NX announcement is proof.

And aside from that, there's no way Nintendo is tethering their ambitious, hopefully successful, new handheld to the anvil that is the Wii U as its revolutionary new selling point. "Hello. This is Satoru Iwata, presenting to you the Nintendo NX. For the first time ever, we will blur the lines between console and handheld by allowing you to play our failed system no one wants anywhere you'd like! In fact, the Wii U is pivotal to this handheld."

Come on.
