your evidence doesn't support your claim.

sony also publicly stated they are working on their next console,.. that doesn't mean that ps4 is being replaced next year. R&D can span 3-6 years. stating that are working on a home console doesn't provide any evidence that NX is a home console.

 

edit: evidence your claim is baseless.

Checkmate.

I'm skeptical of you're claim spemanig why couldn't Prime director be talking about Metroid Prime on future 3DS successor? Isnt the 3DS a handheld CONSOLE? HAs Nintendo ever referred to a handheld as a console too? I'm sure that 3DS successor and Wii Us are 2 different  things but the fusion aspect is similar OS.http://www.cnet.com/news/miyamoto-were-on-to-the-3ds-successor/ this link in my view somewhat shows a hint of a distinct seperate device
