They won't get rid of all buttons and analog sticks. The nice thing about those is they give you feedback. You know how far you're pushing the analog stuck because you can feel it. And you know you are pushing a button because you can feel it. With a touch screen, you'd have to look down to make sure it's working. Nintendo would know this better than anyone else. They were the first to put analog sticks on a console controller, after all. And they also are the first to put rumble functionality in controllers. They know being able to feel feedback in your controller is important because after all, you're supposed to spend your gaming time looking at the screen, not down at your controller.

Personally, I think they will probably have a touch screen of some sort, but I don't think they will get rid of all buttons, sticks and pads. It not only wouldn't work but would also run counter to everything Nintendo does in game design.
