Um just throwing this out there, but why is everyone saying NIntendo will push the Wii past it's 5 year cycle that Nintendo has been using? I mean I don't think they'll stop production soon, but a new console is coming to replace it sooner rather than later. And why do I say this? Cause NIntendo is replacing the bestest selling game machine of all time that's still selling better than every other gaming machine combined, in a few months.

Wow, that's made no sense whatsoever, Nintendo is less concerned about 5 year plans than sales and profits, the reason other Nintendo consoles died out so fast was because of sales, the NES survived much more than five years, because it sales continued strong.
If Wii has good sales, Nintendo will wait to release its next console, if sales sag too far then they'll announce the next one

What do you mean that made no sense? If Nintendo would replace the DS which is the best selling game machine ever, which is still selling more than most of the consoles combined, why would they not replace the Wii which isn't selling nearly as much? Hell the Wii has been selling less than the PS3 right now everywhere. What's the flawed logic? Wouldn't your reasoning mean Nintendo would wait to replace the DS? I'm not saying they're going to stop production of the Wii, just have its successor in line and ready to be shown. I mean the SNES was out along side the NES . They probably won't show it this E3 cause Zelda has yet to release but after Zelda's release there's going to be a successor shown.

There is a reason they replaced the DS, while its sales are still strong, there are reasons to move to the 3DS, first off is piracy, another reason is the rise of smartphone gaming
