Or maybe the NX will be digital only platform meaning none of that will be an issue.

Which is a scenario Miyamoto specifically referenced in a quote I literally just brought up an hour ago on this site.

See? I still have it Ctrl +C'd.

"So, particularly with digital downloads now and the idea that you're downloading the right to play a game, that opens up the ability to have multiple platform digital downloads where you can download on one and download on another. Certainly from a development standpoint there is some challenge to it, because if you have two devices that have different specs and you're being told to design in a way that the game runs on both devices, then that can be challenging for the developer—but if you have a more unified development environment and you're able to make one game that runs on both systems instead of having to make a game for each system, that's an area of opportunity for us."

Describes a digital platform, a unified platform, a shared library, cross buy, unified developement, and the "right to play a game" all in one easy to digest paragraph!

Yup, that quote is gold. To me, it is definitive confirmation of a shared OS at the very least.
