Not going to happen. Doing that is like killing the device since launch. They need to be at most retailers as they can, like Wii and DS.

So maybe NX is not a console but just a digital platform then? How else can they offer through a Nintendo like solution. If it's a console that is being sold to retailers then what is there to offer through a Nintendo solution?

He's mostly refering to the software solution. Having a steady stream of games since launch and sharing most of the library between devices will help.

For example, taking in count 3DS and Wii U software, NX will have in ist first year NSMBU+Nintendo Land+Ocarina of Time 3D+Star Fox 64+Super Mario 3D World+Mario Kart 7+The Wind Waker HD+Pikmin 3+The Wonderful 101+Kid Icarus Uprising.

But I'm expecting NX to have in it's first year Zelda HD+3D Mario+Mario Kart+Animal Crossing.

1 year = 12 months
