For this post I'll take Moffitt's statements as the truth of what's going on at Nintendo. He made four points:

1. Having the right content. - Nintendo will make a serious effort to create games that the market wants to buy, unlike in the eighth generation when their developers were free to do what they wanted.

2. A clear positioning. - Hardcore gamers will be excluded. It looks like Nintendo has realized that hardcore gamers are lying about what they want from Nintendo, meaning that hardcore gamers won't buy Nintendo hardware anyway, because what they really want is Nintendo as a third party publisher. So when NX is unveiled, it will be clear that the platform wasn't made for the hardcore.

3. Showcase all the things that make Nintendo great. - The focus of the NX reveal will be first party software. This will be a giant step up from the Wii U reveal where third party software took priority and CEO's from companies like Ubisoft, EA and Warner Bros. wasted precious stage time that should have been spent on games that actually mattered.

4. Third party content/a tendency to focus on certain titles of certain third party publishers. - This answer gives it away that Nintendo isn't planning with the typical multiplatform games in mind. They don't expect to get them, so NX will be designed to suit the right content, and going from there, third party support will be picked up by selling a lot of hardware.

That's four points where Nintendo has all the right ideas, backed up by video game sales history. This is a good sign.
