I don't think it was the casuals who came to forums to talk about how graphics don't matter.

That rhetoric never left. Graphics don't matter. Gameplay does. Talking about how the NX needs high specs only referenced 3rd party support, not game quality, which is what that rhetoric addresses.

Well I addressed that in a post I made before the one you quoted from me:

Matching the current consoles would be helpful for Nintendo in gaining some third party ports, unless the lack of 3rd party games goes deeper with other issues, which may be the case. There is the "how easy is to develop for NX" thing to consider as well.

If the issue is releasing an underpowered console for next generation by Nintendo (becoming soon obsolete once Micro and Sony release their next consoles) I'd say this problem Nintendo may face will be more due to their own choice of releasing too early instead of waiting a while longer when hardware will be cheaper and able to reduce cost for a more powerful console.
