Lets just say it:

The Wii has come and almost gone. Despite reasonable sales comparing to the HD twins, Wii sales are trending downwards to epic low levels compared to what the console performed in the past.

Nintendo own software is lackluster to what they gave us in the past.

The console, which is basically a Gamecube on steroids with motion control tacked in, surpassed Nintendo and everyone expectations, hence the shortages for 2 years after release.

Zelda Skyward Sword will be the last hit on the system.

2011 will be all about 3DS, and 2012 will be the year the next Nintendo console arrives.

The Wii will be left with minor Nintendo projects till 2012 and for 3rd parties. Nintendo already had much more revenue from it than they were expecting. Their money is now going for 3DS and Wii 2 R&D.
