I dont get it, do some people actually think Nintendo with NX would compete with Xbox Scorpio specs, and release console with price around $500, in middle of generation!? NX in that case hardly would pass evene 10m LT.

For me its very obvious that Nintendo with NX is aming affordable 1080p console with some new concept, it will definitely not run games in 4k.

I doubt NX will even be able to run PS4 games in 1080P. Probably more like souped up Wii U tier games will run in 1080P with added effects. PS4/XB1 ports probably at 720p, I don't think Nintendo really cares about that. 

Take the new Zelda, double the pixels (that takes you from 720p-1080p), bump the frame rate to a rock solid 30 fps at least (the current build has some drops), add some higher resolution textures, more detailed foliage thanks to an added poly count, better lighting/shader effects ... and that's probably NX. 

Which wouldn't be *that* bad honestly. If you let the whole "Nintendo must be the market leader and have third parties!" dream die, Wii U games for *Nintendo's* POV already look pretty nice, triple or quadruple the horsepower and RAM and you probably have the roof of what Nintendo would ever even want to spend developing any game to begin with.
