I think we'll see the 3DS successor sooner than people think.
This is the peak 3DS year IMO, it'll probably sell around 16-17 million for the fiscal year, next year it will drop back down to 13-14 million.
A far cry from the DS' hey day where it was crushing 30 million per fiscal year at its peak.
If Nintendo rides the 3DS too long it will start to look badly dated next to smartphones and cheap $99 tablets by 2015, I think Nintendo knows this.
I could see a Nintendo "tablet" for late 2015 to spring 2016.
