Wii's steam is seriously coming to an end, there's no SW getting sold at all and there's no SW getting released either. I think it's time for Nintendo to unveil their new console. Will happen during 2011's E3 99% sure of that.

Third parties already abandoned the Wii for the most part and 1st party games are too few and too far to make an impact. At least they can get a head start next gen and Wii will be the best selling system this gen no matter how long their competitors stay afloat. They should be proud and simply move forwards before people start talking about something else. No 3DS doesn't count if we are talking about the home console side, with Natal and Move, if any of those becomes a hit, the Wii will not be the headlines anymore, considering third parties are more propense to develop for the new motion controllers than for the Wii.

Nintendo has proven it only takes one software to make the system a hit. Wii Sports did this with the Wii. New Super Mario Bros Wii turned a dry year into the best Christmas the Wii has ever had.

Right now, we know nothing about Nintendo's line up going into Q3/4 2010 or anything about 2011. There are no games announced save for maybe Wii Party and Wii Relax (and we saw, what, a few screens of the former). We can not make judgements when we know nothing.

This post screams "Nintendo is doomed." Why does Nintendo need to release a new system so early when the Wii is still out preforming the competition? If Wii needs a new system in 2011, shouldn't the PS3 and 360 get one too? They are in less demand than Wiis are. And Nintendo just broke a record in the Holiday season in a very dry year. This means the Wii has a lot of potential. And Nintendo will announce software. It's as if you suspect Nintendo wont have anything. Hello, Zelda?

Also, lol at third parties. Since when has Nintendo had strong third party support? They have all been niche titles and rail shooters. How is having little to nothing any different. Nintendo, one their own, made the Wii. Which brings me to another point: Nintendo has been the only developer out there who has consistantly made successful motion control games. No one else has. The only contender is Ubisoft with "Just Dance." Do you really think Move or Natal will be a threat?

Nintendo will not release a new system until 2012 or when Sony announces their next system, which ever one comes first.
