Gaffers,
I was thinking yesterday about the future of Nintendo. It seems the NX will not be very powerful, probably less robust than scorpio and Neo. Some people are saying it will be compatible with regular xboxone/ps4.
That will probably be a bad thing, since it might not attract a lot of 3rd parties or ports once the next generation kicks in in 3 years.
Unless they have something unique game-play wise that will attract the casuals back, there is a high chance it will flop just like wii u, since the Nintendo hardcore fan base will not be enough (see wii u sales)
If that happens, what Nintendo would do? Will they stop making hardware, and focus on software only for other companies (or focus just on portable gaming)? Or they will go back to the drawing board and try a different hardware with more horsepower and less gimmicks (gamecube era)?
Will Nintendo ever have the 3rd party support back ?
Thanks
