I agree. They are commiting the same mistake SEGA did and pissing off fans/consumers in the age of the internet is a very dumb thing to do. They need to forget this NX thing and announce one more wave of software for the Wii U. They wont make much money but they will retain consumer trust going into the next cycle along with great praise. By dropping the Wii U, they lose the trust, the fandom and have no one to fall back on.
They will simply take their gamble at a casuals and atemp to strike gold again. Failing that,they got mobiles.

lol what the hell are you talking about? NINTENDO DOESN'T HAVE ANY CONSOLE ANNOUNCED. they are going to announce one next year and it might as well be the 3ds sucessor. even on the remote possibility that it's the wii u successor and releases in 2016, that's still 4 years of support for wii u. it's the same amount of time the first xbox had, but with much more games in wii u's case. and of course there's another wave of titles for 2016 that we'll hear more about later.

So the notes are:

Nintendo does have a new console announced. Its the NX and its beeing revealed next year.

The original Xbox didnt come off a sucessful system. Everyone expected the original Xbox to tank. Managing to have some worthwhile exclusives and penetrating the market was enough for the OG Xbox. Every other outside in the market before it failed to survive. If the OG Xbox came after the 360 it would be seen as a huge failure.
