Because if the NX was solely a handheld only it'd have BC and be able to play the 3DS version next year on launch, they wouldn't need another version.

the next handheld doesn't necessarily need to be BC, but could still use assets from the 3DS version, making it still very cost effective. just an upgraded version would be enough to differenciate it from the old 3ds version


The'd be no point because a handheld would play the 3DS version anyway, much like how some games on N3DS have upgrades when run on the newer hardware they could implement that and save a tonne of money that way. An NX version indicates a console like platform as DQX is also being moved over to NX along with a PS4 version, this indicates they want to migrate Nintendo console owners as NX replacing Wii U would mean the biggest following for XI would be left behind.
