Nintendo needs to release NX same year as the competition.

Your way of thinking is the worst, srry.

That argument doesn't make any sense.

WiiU is already well behind their competition in terms of power and developer support. Leaving it to trickle on for the next few years would not be a smart business move and only result in continued brand irrelavency.

Putting out a new gaming platform in 2016 is actually a smart business move for Nintendo.

releasing a console in the mid of a generation doesnt make sense. that basically means they have to do catch up which is the worst case scenario if you want to sell something.. i dont see 3rd party support either if they do what you propose also the lifespan of NX will be very short because new consoles from microsoft and sony are on the horizon. releasing a consoles ahead of the competition didnt do good for nintendo (Wii U)

logical step: do it from scratch. do it when it actually matters same way as they did with Wii.
