Totally agree, even "always" is some how vague statement, because we don't know how exactly consoles will be look in 10-20 years, but I am pretty sure Nintendo will most likely be last that will release some kind of dedicated gaming platform.


My post from other thread:

Nintendo taking money whenever they can not only on software, especially this gen: hardware, software, Amiibos, toys, mobile games, themed parks, movies...so its very obvious they expanding their company and their business to different markets, they will definitely not abandon everything else and just to be focused on software, that includes hardware market also.

Nintendo is multi billion company with long history, they will definitely not change their strategy so easy just because current success of one mobile game. Pokemon Go is maybe current goldmine, but what will be in year, two, 5 years from now, if will still be gold mine, why would they close itself possibilities of choices and opportunities for hardware and console gaming just because current success of one mobile game when they dedicated platform still make profit even when they have basically the worst generation. And Nintendo is company that like to have possibilities and full control, they will definitely not become only software company, they expanding their business to toys, mobile games, themed parks, movies...they want to be more like Disney or Apple, they definitely not aiming to be just onother 3rd party.
