Yeah, I think at this point people asking these kinds of questions just aren't paying that much attention. 
With Wii U, they'll aim to profit and sell plenty of software and amiibos. I wouldn't be surprised to see more DLC to help with high profit margins. I wouldn't write them off. The Dreamcast forced Sega out of hardware because Sega had burnt money on the Mega-CD, 32X and Saturn before lurching onto the Dreamcast and losing money on that. Nintendo still have billions in the bank, and while they have had a rough few years financially, they should return to profit this year.
Nintendo have already said their home and handheld console strategy will be different next time around, and they're expanding outside of gaming for the first time in over 30 years. They're not going to throw more money at Wii U in an aggressive attempt to gain marketshare. They'll write it off as a failed experiment and move on.
