What if the NX is just a traditional handheld?

I really can't see it being a console. Why? Because they barely had the manpower to make games for the Wii U. Being forced to learn much more complicated systems in a short period of time will frustrate some developers.

It could just as well be that Nintendo's seen the WiiU ship sinking for a long time and has transitioned dev tools and resources to a new platform for at least the last year.

The fact we know close to nothing about what Retro Studios and EAD have in flight for 2016-2017 is really interesting.

WiiU 3rd party support could actually be lacking for this reason also : developers are already spending more time learning about the NX capabilities than bother with the WiiU at all.

Why bother learning NX capabilities? It's not as if they would actually use it to it's full potential.
