On the one hand, it's Nintendo, and they seem to always care more about innovating a new market for customers than innovating for the current market for customers. If they are approaching the NX the way they approached Wii and WiiU, it would not be remotely shocking to see the NX specs land right around those of the PS4/X1.
On the other hand, if the NX is being developed as a reaction to the WiiU's subpar reception, then they might be going hard after the market leaders. Even if the latter is the goal, Nintendo will still most likely shoot for a lower price point, because...Nintendo. That would have consequences, in and of itself.
