Could The NX Be Something Completely Leftfield?

Unlikely Nintendo is dumb enough to leak the NX in a patent like that. They had to know that would get scooped up by the gaming press fairly quickly. 

There may be elements of that patent that they use, but I doubt that's literally the whole concept. 

Obviously it's not complete, nor exact. But I am very confident based on the patents that there will clearly be a home console NX with a separate controller. That layout is quite explicit in the designs.

Even so, realistically the console will be the passenger in the NX equation, the portable is going to have to do all the driving. Nintendo (traditional) consoles just don't sell very well, and that console against a 3-4 year old PS4/X1 has little/no chance.
