A hybrid device is a single device that can be played on the go or at home on the TV with 100% of Nintendo's software output being tailor made for this device. If you wanted to do the same with your examples, you would need to buy two seperate devices along with an add-on and you still wouldnt be able to play your console games on the go. Also these add-ons were not released until halfway through these devices lives. So you see how these are not the same situation? |
You are playing mobile games on a Home Console. You are melding two different demographics/game library's into one. It's the SAME idea. You just aren't able to take the home console on the Go.
The point stands that it didn't vastly increase sales rate of the home console.

So let's put this into bullet points shall we?
* Wii userbase didn't transition to the Wii U and might not transition to NX.
* DS/Handheld userbase is in decline.
* Devices/Accessories which allowed the Home console to meld mobile/home console game library/demographics into one... Was mediocre from a sales perspective.
* Mobile and thus NX is now in competition with mature Android/iOS/Windows ecosystems.
* Having lots of exclusives doesn't guarentee sales.
* NX is going to have Mediocre hardware and thus graphics.
Nintendo has an uphill battle if it wishes to succeed I'm afraid, regardless of how you wish to paint things. ;)
