They won't. They'd have to license the format from Sony. Thus giving Sony money. Nintendo isn't going to do that.

So, if they wanted to use Blu-Ray on Wii's successor, they would have to do the same?

They'd license it from the Blu-ray Disc Association which diversifies the license royalties out to member groups though Sony gets the largest share.

 

I fully expect their next portalable and home system to utilize flash memory medium for its physical games.  Or possibly a proprietary non-standard disc medium.
