No for the reason that 3DS games would look horrific on a large TV display, they're already fairly grating these days on a 5-inch display I can't really imagine it going well on a 50-inch display.
If there was a way to run the games at 720p or 1080p then yes absolutely. Monster Hunter 3U on the Wii U looks great and that's basically just a 3DS game running at 1080p.
Next-gen when the handheld is capable of HD graphics or something in line with the Wii U -- that's a different story.
To be honest going back and even playing Super Mario Galaxy 2 again on the Wii U was a bit of a rude awakening ... SD really looks terrible on HDTV sets. Thank god the Wii era is over, HD is soooooo damn nice on Nintendo titles.

I think its safe to assume that under the purported Fusion concept, Nintendo wouldn't simply go for a gameboy player type home solution, to make it a unique and more lucrative option it would have to be stronger chips than whats inside the HH. So even if HH is launched first, the home version specs will most likely be locked in far before its launch, and IMO games would be designed on the higher end so it could be scaled down properly for the HH. I assume Nintendo will not have a disc reader for Fusion, so I wonder how much juice can they pack in their "microconsole".

Say buh bye to the disc drive.
It's unneccessary, backwards compatibility hasn't done sh*t for the Wii U either and it actually makes Nintendo more money to charge you again to re-buy back catalog titles rather than just letting you replay your 5-8 year old discs.
The next wave of Nintendo's 3DS style cartridges will likely go up to as high as 32GB anyway, which is the same size as a Blu-Ray disc.
The Wii U disc drive is horrid too, thing is ridiculously loud, it sounds like its having a seizure anytime Bayonetta 1 has a cutscene for instance. Nintendo never wanted to use optical discs in the first place, now they can finally be rid of them for good.
