"you guys"... not sure what you are refering to but ok.
If the NX is simply another home console more powerful than the Wii U, it will fail. It has no chance whatsoever. That is completely independant of what i think and what you think about some games available at launch.
We have had many examples that it doesnt matter. The Dreamcast had an incredible line-up, didnt make a difference. The Wii had a crap line-up, didnt make a difference. There is more than titles that decide the fate of a console. Its the perception of the consumer. Coming from the Wii U, Nintendo doesnt have a good perception. If this is really a new system, they have killed the Wii U about as early as SEGA killed the Saturn. What garantee will cosnumers have that they won't do it yet again once they aren't pleased with NX sales? Its the same exact thing that killed the Dreamcast.
Therefore i dont think a new home console has any chance whatsoever. It's either something aimed at the casual gamers or something that is more aimed at the portable market. To simply make a new home console without anything that sets it apart is suicide.

Genesis released 3 years after Master System
Nintendo DS released 3.5 years after Gameboy Advance
Xbox 360 released 4 years after Xbox
All 3 of these went on to sell much more than their predecessors
Saturn released about 6 years after Genesis
PS3 released 6 years after PS2
3DS released over 6 years after DS
All 3 of these sold much worse than their predecessors
The life cycle of a console has no bearing on the success of its successor.

You didnt understand what i said. I said consumer perception is what matters. The number of years are not necessarely the defining factor.
