Not nessisarily. Pokemon has better sales over other series on average, but it doesn't mean this is what Nintendo wants. Nintendo has been under pressure this year to increase Wii sales. They've even gone to cutting the price to try to increase hardware. A true Pokemon game will help rejuvinate the Wii. Main Pokemon titles are really good at pushing units. As long as it sticks to what Pokemon does well in the handheld games, then it can do well. Or, it's could be an MMO which, done properly, could over take WoW. Any other game will just make revenue; it would not be helpful to Nintendo's overall goal.
As this thread has shown, people will probably go out an buy a true RPG or MMP for Pokemon.
