Essentially this.

Go up to 20 gamers and ask them if they have heard about the NX and the vast majority will say no.  Most of them don't even know about the Wii U...

And most didn't know about the gamecube, or were really put off by it, and then the Wii happened.

The moral of the story (imo) is that you CANT rely on the casuals to have a suscessful console. The Wii captured people that just werent gamers with the move gimmick, as soon as the fad went away, they went away too, hence the Wii U sales.

Apart from the Wii, which (imo) was a one in a lifetime moment for Nintendo, each Nintendo Home Console have been selling less than the previous, that is the message that Nintendo have to realize.

Revealing the NX is not enough. They also have to bring to the stage tons and tons of third parties, while it is not so exciting for the show factor, it will give the gamers the message that they are hoping with the 3rd parties this time, which indeed can win the show for them.

Nintendo CANT rely on first party, they just cant.
