If the NX doesn't come out in 2016, where will the "Nintendo-like" profits come from?

I seriously can't believe people hates Nintendo so much to expect their next console until 2017-2018. Wii U forecast for this FY is what? 3M? What are you expecting for 2016 and 2017? 1 Million? Do you think is healthy for the company to keep those low sales? And don't come here saying but mobile and amiibos! because that's not going to cover the profits of great hardware sales that generates great software sales.

Actually 3.4m for Wii U and 7.6 for 3DS, if they hit targets Wii U will be on same level like in 2014. but they expecting 1.1m less for 3DS.

2016. will be probably 2-3m for Wii U and around 5-6m for 3DS. So yes, they need new hardware in 2016/2017.
