There is no way in hell Nintendo is launching a unified platform where you can play one game across multiple consoles without having cross buy/save/play and having the same acount to link them all together. That's not even speculation anymore. DeNA is already confirmed to be working on the MP, the MP is already confirmed to be more than just a rewards program, and Nintendo already confirmed that the MP would be the core part of the NX platform, and the MP is already confirmed to use one account. All of that is confirmed.
Will the MP replace the Nintendo Network? Doubt it. Buy it will absolutely be structurally integrated into it. The MP, for example, will likely use your NNID.
DeNA will not publish Nintendo mobile games. Nintendo will. DeNA is helping with the structure, and is likely helping Nintendo try and cultivate its own marketplace on mobile. Itawa absolutely never alluded to wanting their mobile games to be companion apps. That's a fan theory. Nintendo and DeNA are completely on the same page. They both want the games to stand alone as their own products. They just want those products to spread brand awareness for Nintendo's IP, which will be good for their hardware as a result. 500m people playing amazing Nintendo games tailor made on their smart phones is the advertizement.

What MP means?
But hey, there was no way in hell nintendo would launch a system in 2012 without all of that... how did that go again?

Membership program.
There was no expectation that the Wii U was going to be a unified platform, so predictably.
