Zelda Wii U. :p
In all seriousness, it might be anything really. If it's the Fusion rumor is true. Then we'd get a console+handheld hybrid machine that can take advantage of the best of both worlds. A system where you can play games on the TV as a console and then take the controller with you anywhere you go with them and having it act as a handheld, and a fact that they would all be housed under one roof and share the same library would mean one franchise in particular olwould finally see it's true, long overdue debut on Nintendo consoles.
When you look at libraries for all Nintendo handheld and consoles, the one franchise that is THE system seller and killer app for their handhelds, which is sorely missing on consoles is...
Pokémon!
Yeah we've had battle focused games like Stadium, Coliseum, and Battle revolution, etc.
But we've never had a full scale RPG or Pokémon Generation appear on consoles.
Generation 7 as a launch title for NX (wishful thinking at this point since Gen 6 is about to rap once Pokémon Z eventually drops, and the 3DS has the established install base) or having Generation 8 later on during the system's life cycle would have people lining up the stores to buy the system!
You don't think the first ever full scale mainline Pokémon RPG on consoles AND in high definition wouldn't have people lineup up the buy the system?
I mean there are more copies of Pokémon X/Y out there than there are Wii U units sold.
The people over at GameFreak, Pokémon Company, and Nintendo have said many times before that they would've done it by now if there was a way to simultaneously create the handheld experience on consoles, well the NX Fusion system is exactly what the Doctor ordered in that regard.

As I've said earlier, I think Pokemon could be a killer app. I just don't think it realistically will be. The timelines don't match up.
