Just unified platform would make NX very different console than any other, new concept and new idea doesn't mean that console can't be traditional in same time. I think it's tradinaul console but with unified platform and probably some other gimmick. And that in any case dosesnt mean that NX with all that cant easily outpoform XB1 for $300 price point.

Like I sad, I expecting unified platform, with maybe another gimmick, with power between XB1-PS4 and price point $249-299.

It doesn't even make sense. When you look at the facts, Nintendo has always bring us a new console more powerful than the others on the market each generation, even after the 7th generation with the WiiU which is more powerful than a Xbox 360/PS3. If they bring something like this now, that would be a big middle finger to the gaming community. After the failure of the WiiU, it's obvious that Nintendo won't just try to appeal to the casual market. If they want to be more successful, they'll need everyone like Sony is doing. The console will definitely be at least more powerful than a PS4 and at least on the same price point than the WiiU right now.

You realise that Wii U was just a little more powerfule than 7 years old consoles!? Wii U needed to compete with XB1/PS4 not 7 years old consoles.

Nintendo can't win console war with specs, not in middle of generation and when we having PS4 Neo and Xbox Scorpio knocking on door. Releasing console that would be on pair with Xbox Scorpio means console of around $500, and realising $500 console in middle of generation would be suicide for Nintendo.

Nintendo with NX will go for 1080p gaming, some new concept and affordable price (most likly $300), so they really don't need stronger hardware than PS4. IMO in worst case NX will have power similar to XB1, realistically somewhere between XB1 and PS4, but also could have similar power to PS4 or even little above, I dont think NX will be much stronger than PS4 in any case.
