Well I don't know, I don't even know what else they have planned for the Wii U.

Basically nothing, the fact that 2016 is all outsourced titles, ports & delayed games along with not announcing any significant internally developed titles for 1.5 years shows that Nintendo is gearing up to replace Wii U sooner than later.
|
Which is still a stupid idea. Need I remind you again of the Saturn fiasco? Or how about the transition from the Saturn to the Dreamcast ONLY FOUR YEARS after the Saturn launched?
|
If ur just going to ignore what I said than don't reply to me.
I already gave u 3 examples of devices releasing within 4 years of their predecessor and being successful. Genesis, Nintendo DS, Xbox 360 all released within 4 years of their predecessors and went on to be the most successful devices that Sega, Nintendo, Microsoft have released yet.
Genesis was on the market for 6 years yet Saturn failed, PS2 was on the market for 6 years yet PS3 saw a big drop, Wii was on the market for 6 years yet Wii U failed. It's not the timeframe that's important, it's how the company handles and executes the next device.

But how can we be sure Nintendo executes it the right way?
Furthermore, if it comes out in 2016 instead of 2017, the PS5 and fourth Xbox will come out 2 or 3 years later, and the NX will be crushed. >_<

NX is going to have to be an upgradable platform some how other it will have problems with the PS5/XB2 no matter what. Regardless of its released in 2016 or 2017, it will be the same problem.
But even by Nintendo's own patents, it looks like they may have a solution to that problem:

If you can add a "supplemental" computing device to your console .... well then they can simply just make the system as powerful as the PS5/XB2 as time goes on. Why buy an entirely new system when the NX you already own can upgrade to that.
