They aren't that dunb to replace both at the same time. That would be economic nonsense. Deal with it. 3DS is going to be replaced next year and we have probably seen every Nintendo game for it.
Wii U successor will launch in 2017 and we'll get a ton of unannounced Wii U games until then.

That's almost fact.

Actually, I think it would be the other way around. First thing to arrive is MyNintendo and mobile games. Then, the NX home console. If the NX trully is a fusion device, the handheld part will need as much power as it can get, to work well with HC software. So one year more to improve the hardware of the handheld might help to close the gap. Also, the system that needs an inmediat successor is the WiiU, the 3DS is still doing great. It's baseline is usually between 80k-110k per week, those numbers aren't low enough to need replacement.

You realize that 3DS sales are constantly falling? This platform has no future. Even Nintendo knows that. That's why they started releasing Spin-Offs and reusing engines. They don't put a lot effort in recent 3DS games. 3DS sales will be terrible in 2016. That's why they are going to replace it first. You don't trust me? Well, in one year you will remember my words while playing on your 3DS successor ;)
