1. you cant say a console has tons of exclusives then turn around and agree that it suffers from multiple, long droughts. that is a contradiction. The fact is that Wii U gets a FEW big releases and a FEW smaller releases per year.

I never explicitely agreed that it had long droughts. But sure, keep putting words in my mouth.

3. my point is it goes both ways. PS/XB are missing out on millions of gamers by catering almost solely on 13-35 year old males who primarily play shooters, sports, action games.

 

I disagree. There are tons of games on both platforms that appeal to a massive audience... Granted it's not on the same level as Mario, but they still exist.
And there are tons of "simpler" games too thanks to both companies embracing Indie/Arcade/Casual games as a whole.

Nintendo is also competing with Android and iOS and PC in terms of casual Audience these days.

4. This entire thread and our discussion is based on the rumor that Nintendo is merging handhelds & consoles, it would make no sense to exclude one of those if that is indeed what Nintendo is planning on doing.

 

So your entire assumption is that the Audience of the Handheld and Console will carry over?

Should have probably told Nintendo about that with the Wii U and Microsoft with the Xbox One, both lost customers to Sony.

So are you denying that Wii U suffers many droughts? Can you name 1 notable release between Lego City & Pikmin? Between 3D World & Tropical Freeze? Between Tropical Freeze & MK8? Between MK8 & Hyrule Warriors? Between MP10 & Splatoon? Between Splatoon & SMM? Between Xenoblade & Twilight Princess? If you deny that Wii U suffers from droughts, well you would be the first to do that.

Regardless PS/XB are missing out on millions of gamers to Nintendo just like Nintendo is missing out on millions of gamers to PS/XB. My whole point is that it goes both ways.

Im not assuming anything, but sure keep putting words in my mouth

Im saying that when a company merges 2 product lines into 1, you have to include both of them when talking about its potential success. You cant just ignore the one side that just so happens to be far more successful.

For example, if Sony were to merge their home console and handhelds into a hybrid device would you exclude the PS4 audience when talking about its potential success or would you focus only on Vita? Im guessing you would include PS4, so how does it make sense to exclude 3DS when talking about a Nintendo hybrid?
