like a few people said,
it is the lack of games mainly from 3rd parties. Look at this HUGE window Nintendo left open. They cannot complain that they are competing with Nintendo games.
Nintendo should of done some aqcuisitions of studios that went bust. ie factor 5 and free radicals. It would not hurt them. All they would need to do is give them gidence like the old days Nintendo and Rare, and these third parties could of had some awesome games on the Wii.
Problem is I don't think Nintendo Japan realise just yet how important good 3rd party games that are western oriented are for people outside of japan.
They should also bring back quality control. Screw those whining developers who complained about how hard it was to pass a game on the N64. This is what gave the N64 an aweosme alround library of games.
