I just have a feeling that the NX will be a hit. It's not based on anything except that with Pokemon GO, I now believe that Nintendo's ability to revolutionize pop culture is not a fluke. This company is brilliant and it doesn't matter if Pokemon GO wasn't Nintendo's technological invention: Nintendo has such powerful IP and such a refreshing attitude towards game design that the pieces can come together a lot easier for them than for other companies. Nintendo doesn't need much to create a massive hit, once they get over their own arrogance and actually listen to what people want and create hardware that isn't a huge turn-off to people, they have very few barriers to success.

Nintendo, at its best, offers something that the competition cannot: they make games simple and about pure fun. While the competition will have gamer's strapping VR helmets on their heads and adding a new definition to "introversion" I think Nintendo will be bringing families back into the same room to play simple and fun games. This time, instead of the Wii Mote, it will probably be the Smartphone that Nintendo somehow leverages but I think the NX will be that console. What will put Nintendo over the top will be a killer app that comes with the NX that will perfectly accentuate the hardware. It will be like Wii Sports or Pokemon GO in its simplicity but it will perfectly explain what the NX is supposed to be and, with that, the Wii U era will be yesterday's news.

That makes sense. Also, they should make a Fatal Frame Go app, hunt demons and spirits everywhere. Could even be a Ghostbusters themed app if the movie wasn´t such a flop.
