This is assuming Nintendo sticks with the Wii and goes on to the Wii 2, WiiHD, Super Wii, etc..

 

What would you think if Nintendo offered to let you send in your current Wii and they would modify it to be current gen. standards while keeping all your data still there. It would be cheaper and you wouldn't have to buy an entire new console.

 

Just a thought..

The bolded is why it'll never happen. Remember that this is Nintendo we're talking about here: you may be a valued customer, but only because they can separate you from your money with great efficiency.

Lets look at it this way. Lets say that they do decide to allow users to upgrade and most every Wii user does. This basically means that Nintendo owns a lot of the market already. One of the things that causes third parties to create games for a console is how many consoles sold. More Super Wii's == More Third Party games == More Cash.
