That's G.

You are mistaken. Nothing of the sort was proven. 

But, wait and see, i suppose.

True there is a decent amount of overlap but the hardcore Nintendo fans will most likely buy both and ur completely ignoring what I said in my other post, 3DS/Wii U both had high launch prices with software droughts and bad marketing/advertising.

This same rumor states the device(s) will be $150 plus a unified strategy allows for a more consistent release schedule. The continued expansion of Amiibo figurines/cards, multi-device account system/rewards program, Mobile games/apps, theme park attractions, Quality of Life integration, and rumored films/series shows they are committed to pushing new ways of advertising/marketing.

I'm not saying 20 million in the first year is a sure thing, just pointing out that it's not some unobtainable goal like many others claim.

This just in..

The NX is a amazon fire type cloud box that price tag is 99 dollars, plays complete Nintendo new and old library for a monthly fee of 10 dollars a month. It also allows you to play all those titles on any tablet or cell phone (if it's compatible).

If it's not that I don't know how you reach 20 million.

Master System was replaced after 3 years, successor became most popular console Sega ever released

Gameboy Advance was replaced after 3.5 years, successor became most popular device Nintendo ever released

Xbox was replaced after 4 years, successor became most popular console Microsoft has ever released

That is proof that an early replacement does not automatically mean result in a bad performance.

Pokemon wasn't really a lucky strike though - they spent $50M marketing it in the west 2 decades ago. Mario was shipped with every console sold.

But I can you why the Wii fizzled. It was a gimmick that catered to the casual audience (not to be confused with mainstream) like the elderly - an audience who's not actually interested in gaming but toys. They probably looked at the Eye Toy fad and decided to make a console based on that gimmick.

So, where's the Wii with its motion controls now? Come on, you know it was a fad and was never going to last.

Maybe its because it will be handheld and console version?

I also plan on releasing a new console and I expect it to sell 50 million the first year...see people can say whatever they want on the internet :)

Most Nintendo games don't really have that big barrier between handheld/console, some work better or are more desirable on one form factor than the other but the vast majority of Nintendo games are fully playable on either form factor. Does Animal Crossing only work well on handhelds? No, the GC & Wii entries prove otherwise. Does the gameplay of 3D Zelda only work on home consoles? No, Ocarina of Time 3D & Majora's Mask 3D prove otherwise.

Nintendo has merged their handheld & console software teams, no longer will games be thought of as just a handheld or just a console game, but rather just a game in general and will be designed with both form factors in mind. U can't say the two can't successfully be married since the idea had never truly been tried.

I'm not saying 20 million is a sure thing, I was just pointing out that first year sales of 3DS+Wii U were 20 million while making a large amount of mistakes so if they have a good strategy, nice price point, steady flow of software and strong advertising than something like 5 million for the console and 15 million for the handheld is not an unbelievable task.
