Why do we insist that NX has to be another PS or XB, or else it'll fail?

First NX is incomparable more important for Nintendo than Super Mario Run, they will not hold back reveal of NX until December just because of Super Mario Run. Second Super Mario Run won't have effect on NX until NX arrives in March, so there is zero sense to wait first Super Mario Run launch and then reveal NX.

Reveal of a console is marketing. Super Mario Run exists for marketing reasons. SMR will increase the awareness of Nintendo and Mario even further this winter. Then after that you can announce the new console with the new Mario. Both marketing plans can synergize this way.

Yes, but they are difrent products, and NX is way more important than Super Mario Run, NX will get best timing for reavile regardles Super Mario Run, they will not hold back reveal of NX until December just because of Super Mario Run,it would be very bad move to reveal NX in a middle of holiday season. Second Super Mario Run won't have effect on NX until NX arrives in March, so there is no need at all to wait first Super Mario Run launch and then reveal NX.
