Nintendo will always make a next/current gen console.

"Always" is a loaded term.

At some point the age of the dedicated console as a whole will end (that goes for Playstation as well). We're probably not even that far off, I think maybe there's 2 console generations remaining before games become a streaming service like Playstation Now that don't require hardware.

Either that or I think mobile devices like smartphones in 10-12 years time will be able to basically run almost any type of game. 

It's very possible if you're in the your mid-20s right now that your future kids will look at the idea of "video game console" as something laughable by the time they are age 10+, the same way you laugh at your parents for having a record player or 8-track to listen to music. 

What asshole laughs at their parents for not having tech when they were younger?

I agree with the sentiment, though.
