They will be around for about a decade or so in terms of smaller games and services being released, but major development will be shifting soon. There is little to no doubt about that now.
So I have been looking at this amazon fire tv console and yeah, amazon has just stepped it up to a level that Apple and others will start beefing up the specs at an even faster pace. I expect one of the major competitors to strike back with a similar quad core + dedicated gpu + 3-4GB ram in a few months and the addition of an SDXC slot.
That's right in about a 3 year window. those micro consoles are going to be more powerful than what is inside your xbox one or ps4. We will enter an era in which it will be those micro consoles + the PC for gaming. I think the PS Vita should be Sony's last handheld and Nintendo will probably crank out some crazy hybrid device to keep their franchises going.
I think Microsoft and Sony pretty much know this already and probably thinking of what to do with their next generation of "consoles" to keep the brands alive and well.
Phones will be more powerful than the consoles in 5 years.

I think your projections are a little early like premature babies, friend. Out performing ps4,
