An interesting story broke on Expreview today as it seems in the near future there will not be a console not run by AMD. Nintendo is to release their next-gen console to be the follow-up of the Wii U as well, they need something to seriously compete with 4 and the Xbox One.

Rumors now have surfaced that  The successor could be a NES like system with the fun elements the Wii offers. The new product would be empowered by AMD, however whether or not that is a full blown SoC or an assisting GPU is unclear. The reality is that AMD's APUs really offer it all these days, thus CPU/GPU and Northbridge, it would make Littlesense to add say a standalone processor. 

This far this is just a rumor, so nothing is known about the final product and or release date.
