I think portable NX will launch in 2016.

Console NX variant in 2017. 

Game development is already well underway too I would guess.

However, I think people are going to have to reframe the way they look at hardware, they will based on a central NX network that unifies everything, and then the hardware will simply just be up to the consumer as to which flavor of hardware you want. 

More similar to iOS/Steam than the dated 1980s model of game consoles. 

Home Console - 2017/2018     Handheld - 2018

LIke I said 2016 is not going to happen

Why on earth would Nintendo, who have no other divisions to fall back on as opposed to Sony and MS, try to keep two irrelevant consoles on the market at the same time (they will both be highly irrelvant before those time windows you're proposing are up)? That's a one-way ticket to obscurity and a near surefire way to drop ouf of the hardware business completely; they simply cannot afford to do this and it would be a historically stupid move of them.
