Should Nintendo talking about the Wii U successor scare me from buying one?

[rolltide101x]

I have heard a good bit of news lately about the 3DS and Wii U successor Should this scare me from buying one? I do not want to get a Wii U if it is not going to be Nintendo's latest home console for a few years atleast. What do you guys think?

 

Stuff like this is concerning me about getting a Wii U (I am just waiting for my tax refund)

Is Nintendo just talking about their next consoles way to early or are they getting their replacements ready?
