Nintendo Switch Won’t Be Backwards Compatible With Wii U or 3DS
However, that ends with the Switch- the new system will be backwards compatible with neither the Wii U nor the 3DS, Nintendo confirmed in an interview with Japanese magazine Famitsu (translated by NeoGAF).
Speaking about the system’s battery life, Nintendo confirmed that they have nothing specific to say, but did drop the hint that “the development team aims at allowing players to play NS conveniently at places without electricity connection.” Which sounds encouraging, but is vague enough to be ominous. Hopefully Nintendo don’t screw up the battery life here, because that would significantly undermine the main appeal of the system.
Nintendo Switch will launch worldwide in March 2017.

A bit of a shame although at least the WiiU console and games will drop in price a little

Me and probably many others will not care as long as we get a new Smash game as well as a new Pikmin.
