Why? Imagine if Nintendo was secretly working on a POWER8 design (which I don't think they are), Sony and Microsoft would piss their pants.

Piss themselves laughing...

If we learned anything from the PS3, developers aren't very fond of special architechture with hidden powers. And if the PS4 showed us anything, if you use a familiar design that's easy to develop for they will lick your asshole like there's no tomorrow. And if the Wii U taught us anything, then your console will tank without 3rd party support.

Being the special snowflake isn't doing it anymore, you also have to have a thought out and solid product.

Not trying to be critical here, but could you rephrase that just a bit for the faint of heart. 

And yes, Nintendo trying to be the special snowflake is a result of their blue ocean strategy. It worked for the first Wii but going off to do their own thing again will just confuse more potential customers.
