If you has a Nintendo console that could play all the third party stuff that has come out, plus all the mario, zelds etc al, I think it would hit.People might trade their ps4 in for a Wii Stupid Name That Doesn't Make Clear It's Not An Add On if they can play Nintendo stuff, and FIFA on it.

And the one game series that could do that, Pokemon, well, that ship has probably set sail also, still their biggest hitter sales wise & with amiibo it could go through the roof, but maybe to late to slamming it down, but would/could give them an instant huge install base if they landed a console MMO down, even more so if pop out handheld rumours are true.
Monkey is also correct, it does not matter if Ninty say they are not in direct competition, they are. I love that they do their own thing, but they can not afford(well maybe they can) another WiiU situation. Not every one has the cash monies for more than one home console. They do play to their targets, but that seems to not be going to well this time, the reason is competition, the reason is choice of platforms, the reason is doing your own thing solo with no 3rd party back up.
Thumbs up for doing your own thing, but they cant be doing backflips & slapping high 5s at NCL ref the U. The NX will follow suit if they do not get the balance right. Over in the west, its 3rd party, in the east, trying to tie shit to the mobile market, that's some balancing.
edit, that or another Wiimote moment.
