Knowing the big titles coming next year, do you still think the NX will be coming out holiday 2016?

Wii U and 3DS can't carry Nintendo financially for another year anyway.

3 million Wii Us/year and 3DS shipments going lower than 7 million would be the lowest in the modern history of Nintendo for hardware shipments.

New hardware is very obviously coming.

There will be a minority portion of the Nintendo fanbase that will kick, scream, stomp their legs at this but then they'll see Mario on NX and shut up about it. 

New portable then? Maybe both if Ninty feels they shouldn't give an edge to NX portable by releasing first. Thats the way I see it, either both or portable only.

If it's a similar architecture, just scaled up, then Nintendo can easily release both at the same time no problem. 

It's like saying Apple can't release a new iPad in the same quarter as a new iPhone ... sure they can. It's basically the same technology just scaled up or down running the same software.

If the the portable + console/dock run the same games, it wouldn't make sense to be honest not to release both at the same time because that's supposedly part of the whole appeal of the NX (play the same games at home/on the go) I would think.

The sooner the product launches, the sooner the userbase can begin to build too. Purposely holding back hardware just for the sake of some imaginary time limit a small portion of people have on the internet is incredibly stupid. 3 year headstart for the PS4/XB1 is bad enough already, Nintendo needs to get this thing out and start building that userbase so developers will actually want to make games for it.
