Nintendo doesn't have a "console market", they have a niche group of 20-30 year old men mostly willing to buy their consoles because they grew up with them in the 80s/90s. That's not "market", that's a niche audience.
If the portable successor to the 3DS is not a big seller for Nintendo, they may as well start applying for a third party license right now.
Really if its a discreet console what is the NX going to be anyway that's so special? A Nintendo console with PS4 graphics instead of PS3 graphics? Are the people buying Playstation and XBox likely to care?

12 million sales is not a niche market for god's sake. It may not be enough to justify hardware development, but it's certainly not niche. Also you don't understand the Nintendo base at all. It's a good thing you're not in charge of the decisions!

Nintendo wouldn't be in this mess if I was in charge, but I'm not exactly patting myself on the back, anyone with a lick of common sense probably could've avoided some of the pitfalls they've fallen into the last few years.
