This sounds like a scary situation for someone who was weaned on Nintendo games, but it doesn't have to be. Nintendo will never stop making the video games that we know and love. But it's no longer financially viable to have two separate platforms that cater to the same audience. By having the QOL alongside the 3DS, Nintendo will be able to appeal to the dyed-in-the-wool gamers and the casual populace at the same time. And we'll see traditional games such as Super Mario 3D World released only for dedicated gaming devices, while everything else comes out on the QOL platform. Everyone will win. It may be a rough transition, but I believe Nintendo's quality of life platform will greatly improve the fortunes of the Kyoto company and push the Wii U quietly into the sunset.

If QoL replaces Nintendo Home Console systems, then hell no. I want more Nintendo console and handheld games this generation.

More likely Nintendo just works on basically one platform after they probably pull the plug on the Wii U around 2016. The QoL will just pick up the slack business wise as probably a high profit margin area for them. My guess is this QoL thing is going to be aimed heavily at senior citizens, as Japan has a massive senior population with a lot of spending power.
