If the NX runs on the merged platform concept that it seems to be, then most of their problems go away right away. That's double the output on one console/handheld rather than split development time to support each. And if the console runs on specs easily transferable from PS4 hardware, third parties won't NOT port games, so long as there's a fanbase to sell to. That's the key: Nintendo's fans need to be willing to buy third party games even if they're just ports. I understand not supporting gimped ports, but if the NX is at PS4 level or higher there's no reason to keep with this exclusive club mentality. That and that alone will determine Nintendo's success with the next console; everything else seems to be leaning their way because of changes they've made since 2014. Not in the sense that they'll take off, mind you, I'm just saying that they're evolving their online architecture to be easy to shift into a PSN/XBL clone should they want to, they're releasing games that can strain servers, etc. They just need to actually put in the effort on the hardware and they'll be fine, and rumors seem to be indicating they're looking at the way the twins did it this time around, so that's a safe bet.
You should check out my YouTube channel, The Golden Bolt! I review all types of video games, both classic and modern, and I also give short flyover reviews of the free games each month on PlayStation Plus to tell you if they're worth downloading. After all, the games may be free, but your time is valuable!
