Nintendo is a business, not a hobby group. They're not going to indefinitely throw money at their console business if it doesn't achieve the results they want. I have no idea how the NX will do, and even if it does fail they may very well try again, but every time one of their consoles fails it pushes them further towards alternatives. Hell, if the NX is a hybrid, it's already an alternative. Do you really believe that if the NX fails, which would likely drain a significant chunk of that 'tons of money' every year, that they'd just me like "meh, so what?".

Well, finally Nintendo will go 3rd-party and produce games exclusively for mobile devices...

If they arrive at the point that they no longer consider making consoles sustainable, then going 3rd party would be a logical alternative. We're a pretty long way off serious discussion about that though :p The NX hasn't even been revealed yet, let alone failed.
