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


There's no way a new Mario Kart is coming out that soon. Same with Smash. The more likely thing is that both will be offered on the NX as though they were NX games because they will be playable anyway. MK8 and Smash 4 are the NX's MK8 and Smash Bros NX. They might rerelease the games on NX with all DLC included and call them "Smash Bros. for NX" and "Mario Kart 8: NX," and continue to update the software afterwards, but that's it for a long time. Definitely not within the next two years.

In other words, the NX isn't just a unified library between the NX systems, but with the Wii U as well. And maybe the 3DS.
