Lol that "if NX does well" ain't gonna happen.
The NX will be lucky to sell more than 15 million.
No third party support, no core gamer support
Based on your numbers NX would have to sell 30+ million before the Splatoon sequel even launches ...not going to happen.
Nintendo is even cannibalizing their handheld market to stay relevant.

 

Your going to be looking real silly when NX portable going to sell 15mil alone in Japan. You think nintendo HH is irrelevant? Not 1exclusive game on ps4 or X1 is close to top 3 3ds games (exclusive) in sales. 

 

Hmmm people are claiming that the NX will both be powerful and unify consoles/handhelds which would imply it being pretty costly to manufacture. In order to sell those numbers it would not be powerful (less powerful than xbone for sure) and not be unified. You guys can't have both ways. The 3DS have expensive at launch and had few games, Nintendo had to do massive price cuts and even pay developers to make games for the handheld. Their shareholders won't accept this a second time.

But I'm the 'silly' one.
