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

Nah, it's not the primary reason. GamePad is a nice extra and is enticing to me, though obviously they messed up with the parts - Nintendo being Nintendo cheaped out on the parts, but fast development of the industry bit them in the behind, when everybody ditched this old tech and suddenly it became more expensive than newer, better tech, making the controller expensive.

The reason Wii U failed is cause it's too weak and has a unique architecture in a world that requires as much unity as possible to cut unnecessary costs.

Architecture is absolutely nothing to do with it and power was a VERY small factor. 

The reason it failed is because the extra cost from the gamepad, people viewing the gamepad as a gimmck, and terrible advertising.

 

Nobody is going to buy a Wii U for 300$ when you can get an Xbox One for 350$. If it would have been 250$ and 300$ day 1 and was sitting at 250$ with a game right now its sales would be doubled. (50$ price cut being from the gamepad)
