So you suggest to release the thing when the rival consoles install base is 70Mish instead of when it's 50Mish because everyone would say "All my friends own a PS4, so I'll buy one too" when the console has 50M install base ? don't you think the same could be applicated to 2017 and it would be even WORSE since the instal base is like 20M more ? Shure your argument is full of logic *irony*
AND do you realize that the last title released in the Metroid Prime series was on the Wii, right ? and not only that but we got even a collection with even the first two games along with that ?
The only reason to wait for 2017 over 2016 is for more Horsepower but honestly Nintendo couldn't care less, whatever other console comes from Sony/Microsoft next will launch in 4/5 years from now, it'll certainly be more powerful than the NX. with the current technology it's already possible to make a console that is way more powerful than PS4/X1(hardware from 2012) at almost the same price of those two consoles...
Also in 2017 both consoles will likely get another pricecut to 250 or maybe even 200$, that could be harder to top aiming for the same price if they want to do a more powerful console, even if they use 2016 tech...
