Look. I know you really want the hybrid to happen, but no one for sure. Even if it does happen, it will be the biggest letdown ever. Especially since the hybrid has already been done, and the detachable controllers have already been done. This means that Nintendo has been so secretive about a underpowered (vs the twins) machine with a 720p screen.

Is that what you really want?

What difference does it make what I want? Nintendo does whatever the hell they want, personally I think they popped a giant boner when they saw the hybrid prototype and decided to go all in because they're Nintendo and they go crazy over shit like that (and detchable toy-like controller wings ... yes, that's very much up Nintendo's design ally). 

What's so original about what SuperMetalDave 64 wants? He wants basically a Nintendo PS4. Even using the exact same chip more or less that Sony and MS are using. Polaris this and Polaris that, like shut up already about Polaris (to SMD64). You have no clue even if Nintendo used AMD that they would ever use that chip. 

Every one of the last two generations we've gotten a deluded group of Nintendo fanatics who let themselves get into a tizzy over hyped hardware that never happend. First the "Revolution" was definitely going to be on par with the XBox 360 at least. Then it was "OK, well no HD, but it'll match XBox 360 at SD". Uhhhh ... nope. 

Then Project: Cafe/Wii 2 ... oh for sure now Nintendo will have a chip comparable to the XBox One and PS4. Nooooooooooope. 

This is just the same people falling for the same crap a third time. 

Its kinda hard to argue with his logic though. A Nintendo PS4 will at least be able to get the 3rd party titles that the PS4 gets. Plus since they are strongest in Japan, they will get those same Japanese PS4 games that don't end up on Xbox. Then add on Nintendo first party games and you got a really solid system that could move units in Japan and in the west.

You're right. Nintendo does what they want. Reggie running around E3 saying the words Red Ocean doesn't help anything. It will most likely be a gimmicky weak console that will have stupid add ons that we gotta pay more money for. But its still not for certain yet. At this point SMD has just as much clout as Emily Rogers. Probably more since his source did predict the Nintendo games lineup.
