Taking this from the Nintendo Movies thread because I think it deserves its own thread. You can read more from the full interview if you follow the quote below.
This is the original source btw:
What exactly could this mean for the NX? Are we looking at a "Third Pillar" similar to when the DS first came out, whose success was so give it ended up replacing the GameBoy? Or is this just PR speak for "We can't reveal nothing else at the moment."
Sorry for the delay. I'm actually not sure what the policy is on GAF for full interview translations, but it's worth noting this isn't behind a paywall, just a registration wall:
Also: I am not a professional translator. If you see a mistake, call it out.

Interviewer: It seems more to me that the NX will have an effect on the Wii U due to the fact that both will be consoles.
Kimishima: I suppose it can be seen that way. However, the NX is neither the successor to the Wii U nor to the 3DS. It's a new way of playing games, which I think will have a larger impact than the Wii U, but I don't feel it's a pure replacement for the Wii U.
