What If There Are More Than 2 NX Hardware Variants?

What exactly would the the difference between the family & pro skus?

1-1.2 TFLOP processor the "Family Console" with emphasis on a new wacky/non-traditional controller. $249.99 price point. Smaller console. 

3+ TFLOP for the Pro Console, highest end graphics, better than PS4 graphics, comes with a standard pro controller and perhaps the "wacky pad" can be included too. $349.99 price point. Somewhat larger console. 

I'm not opposed to the idea bit I'm not sure if it is necessary. We both agree that Nintendo needs to start making all games available on all their devices in the future, would a 3+ TFLOPS console and a 500 GFLOP handheld/tablet be able to share a library or is that power gap too big?

To me that seems like extra power for the sake of extra power that probably won't get used. If the standard console is already playing games like Mario 3D World 2/Galaxy 3, DKC Returns 3, Pikmin 4, Mario Kart 9, Smash Bros 5 at 1080p/60fps than I don't really see the need for a console 3x as powerful unless it has exclusives that take advantage of the hardware but that's kinda going against the whole idea of making NX a unified family.
