doesnt confirm its a hybrid, he basically told us nothing lol

it COULD be hybrid, but at the same time what he says also fits in line of two systems sharing the same library of games as well

Shared library = effectively the end of the Nintendo home console. 

If you put all the Wii U games on the 3DS, the Wii U's sales would be like 4-5 million instead of its already pathetic 12 million, even if it could play 3DS games.

And to have a shared library you can't have a huge gap in power between the two devices. Bye-bye 2 TFLOP console dreams. 

But you still effectively open your game library up to everyone. I'm sure there would be more Wii Us sold and more games on it if it were the only system. But also imagine what the software of games like Splatoon would have sold being on both Wii U and 3DS. Nintendo may take a loss on hardware sold, but that's only a part of where their profit comes from. 

That said, there would be NO need to buy both. But that's good for consumers. And they always have the option to buy both if they want their home console games on the go.
