It wouldn't surprise me. And if not them, I guarantee you that there will be a ton of Hori-made Joy Cons. I mean, it's an obvious money maker to sell people more ergonomic Joy Cons. Since many will not use the Grip but instead opt for a Pro, the Joy Cons will be purely for travel.

I definitely think you'll see something like this from 3rd party manufacturers. I don't think you'll see anything like this from Nintendo. I think Nintendo will treats Joy-Cons like 3DS faceplates. Purely aesthetic. Also, I think you underestimate how many people will be fine with just the grip. It's the most urgonimically standard "weird" controller they've ever had because of it. People tolerated the N64 controller if you remember.
Hope I'm wrong. I hate the button config of the Joy-Cons and pro controller as is.

Not to get picky about it, but I think you've been wrong on everything regarding the NX.
You said it would be a Hard Drive based home system with second screen play and digital only. You said there would be a NX DS with dual screens.
It's like Nintendo literally read your posts and did the exact opposite, lol. Not only is the system not digital only, but you can't even use a HDD. Second screen gaming? R.I.P. They even block the screen in dock mode for almost no reason, it's like they did it just to spite people who like dual screen gaming ;).
Nintendo is gonna milk those Joy Con accessories like it's 2007 Wii-days. There's gonna be every type of Joy Con except one that connects to a person's genitals (only because Nintendo won't allow it).
Retro Joy Cons are certainly happening. I'd bet money on it. Nintendo re-released the GameCube controller for the Wii U. I think in fact this was probably one of the big complaints from Nintendo's "business suit" department regarding the Wii U ... accessorie sales for it were crap. Nintendo made an ungodly amount of money selling a bunch of plastic shit on the Wii, I'm sure they would like to get some of that revenue back.
