NX won't be just one piece of hardware. It will be as many as 4 IMO.

I can see a tablet, handheld, family console (cheap), higher spec console. Iwata made a quote with a unified software ecosystem they'll be able to have many more hardware form factors. Buy which ever one suits your needs, the same way Apple doesn't just make one freaking Mac for everyone, there are choices depending on what you need (Macbook Air, Macbook, Macbook Pro, etc.).

The handheld version will launch next year in some form (tablet or handheld) and the console versions may roll out 8-12 months later. That's how I see it. 

The traditional market rules don't work for Nintendo ... so why keep adhereing to them?
