I think Nintendo have learned from their past console launches, seemingly launching the NX with full force to market, including a great launch lineup, from launch day to +6 months.
They are going back to their roots with the NES classic, which tells me, that their top management are focused on reviving their console business. That should be great news for whatever the NX is.

Well buying console on launch and totally giving up from console are totally different things.

After I buy PS4 Slim, maybe I also would not buy NX on launch..

We're going to get tons of threads after the NX reveal regardless, its inevitable.  

But the difference is least those 'after' threads will be based off something real rather than the millions of rumours and speculations, and you can only make so many threads off something that is already set in stone.  Look at the how many threads of Scorpio compared to the NX, there's barely any because we all already have a good idea of what it already is because MS said so.

That's how alot of threads are even if its not video game related.  Just saying. 

It's just his personal guess, not something he knows. And this should probably be added to the OP because a lot of people seem a bit confused about this because they didn't check the source.
