Nintendo is still going to release the NX. They've gone too far down that path to turn back, now. However, with the rumors we have heard (basically Wii U 2.0), I don't see the NX being a success. Not when it's supposedly underpowered compared to the OG PS4, let alone the Neo. However, the success of Pokemon Go definitely gives Nintendo a path out of console HW. I still hope they publish games on the PS4, but they may just stick to mobile gaming, which is closer to their most successful market, handhelds.

There's an equal amount of rumours saying it's in between the PS4 and Neo and even beyond it (which I don't believe).

 

OT: They still make a profit on consoles/handhelds and that's not changing any time soon with the NX (which is apparently going to be sold for a profit at launch). As long as their core handheld/console markets are bringing in profits, they don't have a reason to abandon them. It'd make about as much sense as Sony quitting PlayStation because of their insurance business.
