Remember that NX controller touchscreen no buttons rumors ? That's basically where we are getting at again ....

That technically wouldn't be untrue if this is what we get. There is basically a touchscreen there, it just has attachable side controls to it. 

Who knows what the shape of the screen is too, could be a custom free form display. 

I would think that Nintendo will do something special with the shape to stand out from the tablet crowd. Form as software will be key selling points. Selling a tablet which can recognized by it's shape is very handy for marketing.

Perhaps the big secrecy is not meant to ward off gaming companies, but the  tech company which sell tablets.
