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.

Are you suggesting that the Wii U see's a massive surge in sales when any of those games have launched and thus driven millions of console sales?
Should probably let Nintendo know about that then.

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.

I'm not denying that.
But the evidence does point to exclusives being less of a determiner when it comes to moving hardware as the Xbox has proven.

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?

Well. Considering that Nintendo has stated that NX isn't a Wii U or a 3DS successor... And considering that users don't automatically carry over into the next cycle... And considering that Nintendo's handhelds are now competing with Android/iOS... I think it's all pretty much conjecture untill we have hardware in our hands and we see how the market plays out.
Fact of the matter is though, Xbox has soundly beaten the Wii for years, that was my original point.

Claim xbox is greater in handheld/home console hybrid discussion and then claim nintendo handhelds don't count towards discussion.
Oh, and further claim pc install base somehow is more relevant to xbox home consoles than handhelds to nintendo. I don't think the windows store is a flag to plant one's standard of arguement unless he wants to claim steam or some strange thing like that.

That's not what I said at all.

1. What are you talking about? How has anything i said let you to come up with that as a response?
2. We seem to be going in circles, all that proves is that having a constant flow of games is more desired than a few gamers per year.
3. They stated its not a SIMPLE successors, that one word changes the context of the entire statement. Now youre just arguing for the sake of argument. Nowhere did i ever saya hybrid device will see a 100% carry over from 3DS+Wii U. Im saying you cant exclude one side when talking about its potential impact. Of course Nintendo could release a product that appeals to neither side and sees a massove decline, or its possible that it appeals to way more people than 3DS/Wii U did.
Fact of the matter though is that Nintendo & Microsoft are dead even when comparing overall console sales and Nintendo absolutely dominates when adding in handhelds.
