The market isn't ready for a Wii successor. The Nintendo market is a mostly value-oriented market and a Wii Successor would probably launch at a price similar to what the 360 launched at unless it was 2 Wii's duct-taped together. lol. The hardcore Nintendo fans that'll buy Nintendo even at a steep price ($250 US for 3DS, which is the expected launch price. No way it launches at $300 US) are in the minority. The 3DS is only going to have mostly core Nintendo fan appeal when it comes out. The mass appeal won't figure in until it's like $180 US or less.
