Neo and Scorpio mean new chances for Nintendo: Usually their console would've been outdated soon after launch but without traditional generation cycles things are different. The standard PS4 / Xbox One will keep getting games for at least 3-4 years because Sony / Microsoft made it mandatory to support them. So Nintendo can comfortably release a console that is equal in power to those machines without being outdated soon. Neo and Scorpio will be overshooting quite a large portion of the market (at least 50% of all PS4 / XO owners wouldn't even consider getting a console aimed at "4k" gaming) and Nintendo will be perceived favorably by low-end consumers who don't want the inferior version of a product but still don't want to pay premium prices.
Neo, Scorpio and VR are all aimed at the very high ends of the gaming market. Sony and Microsoft have given Nintendo enough room to occupy the lower end market segments by moving upmarket faster than customers can absorb the technological improvements.
