Seems they expect Mobile to bleed away some PC revenue (28.3 Billion -13% by 2020)
Console games to grow slightly (36 Billion +10% by 2020)
And mobile to take 50% market share (64.9 Billion, +68% by 2020)

I guess we'll be port begging from mobile in 5 years....

Still doubtful.  There's going to be a power gap there for a long time.  Mobile games are largely simple, or scaled down versions of games on other platforms.  I don't see that changing soon.  

Well, we have the yearly http://www.fudzilla.com/30931-nvidia-believes-mobile-gpus-will-outpace-consoles-soon (a 2013 example)
But I doubt it as well. Selling mobile games at AAA prices has not been cracked yet. Plus consoles will always be cheaper price/power wise and it's easier to code for one hardware profile instead of a range of mobile hardware. Even if you get a docking station for your phone like the Switch, that still would only really work on high end phones. How many phones have active cooling...
