As for Gamepad like devices on other consoles  - they will not be anything else but convenience gadgets that are practically clients in local cloud powered by your console - all games will work on them - at least on PS4/Vita combo that's confirmed, and pretty much we should expect MS to do the same. As I said in other thread, if Sony is smart they will make tablets/tablet accessories that also support Remote Play, or even let other manufacturers include it in their tablets (ones that meet certain standards). I think Gamepad was too much of a focus for Nintendo as a selling point for system, and so far it has not attracted attention they hoped for.

As for more new "core" IPs - I think they need FPS, not military one, but something that will at least try to compete with MS/Sony - Sony did it with Killzone/Resistance to compete with MS, they are not as successful as HALO, but at least they're trying - something that will try to bring back Golden Eye days back for them.

As for other genres, something like action-adventure or RPG that draws from Zelda universe might be way to go - I mentioned several times this in various threads here, Sheikahs would be perfect for spin-off IP that can be more in the lines of what "core" PS360 audience expects from that genres.

The problem with remote play on the PS4 is that you need to buy other acessories in order to use the feature. It will never take off because of the price needed to use remote play. The big reason why the gamepad has not attracted attention is because Nintendo is doing little to no advertising for the thing. Compared to the Wii, the Wii U looks neglected but the reason for that is because Nintendo has not released any game that show off the gamepad features.

The FPS bandwagon has already left, there is no way that Nintendo can make an FPS to compete with MS/Sony. I doubt that people would take Nintendo seriously if they did try.

That would probably piss off the fanbase similar to how Metal Gear Rising did. Nintendo already took risks with the Zelda franchise and it did not turned out to well. Like I said before, the PS360 audience would not take Nintendo seriously.
