It would be good but not a game changer.
The Gamecube could play Gameboy Advance games, the Nintendo 64 also had a Gameboy Advance adapter and could play some Gameboy/Gameboy Colour Games, SNES could play Gameboy games, none resulted in the consoles getting a significant uptick in sales.

I'm the largest supported of the idea of "Buy once and play anywhere" though, Microsoft is pushing it with Windows and Xbox, Nintendo has done it historically, so let's hope it gets pushed hard with Nintendo's next lot of devices.

You can't really know that, you dont know how exactly would GC sell without that feature, and one of Wii U biggest problem actualy was huge software drouth, also this would be completely different thing, because you couldn't take your GC and play on go, because GC was just home console that could play GBA games and it seems that NX is hybrid devaice that act like home console and handheld in same time, totaly difrent things.

The fact of the matter is and the point you are missing is that despite Nintendo's prior home consoles being capable of running the vast majority of their mobile software (SNES (Gameboy), N64 (Gameboy, Gameboy Advance), Gamecube (Gameboy Advance)) Nintendo hasn't been able to correlate a massive  increase in sales due to the introduction of that functionality, it stands to reason it is why Nintendo didn't physically support such a scheme on the Wii and Wii U.
In-fact if you paid attention to all the reviews and such over the years, you will notice it wasn't a must-have feature on any of Nintendo's consoles.


So no. NX being a Hybrid device isn't completely different, in-fact it is irrellevent.
The Wii U is a Hybrid device, has games from prior systems emulated and it has been one of the largest flops in Nintendo's history, which is extremely sad to see.

I actually owned the SNES Gameboy adapter, it was "fine" but it's not what sold me a SNES back in the day, mobile will always have compromised visuals, always.
