NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Wii will be around 150k down YoY

Consider it this way: the decrease from the peak is a lot slower than the ascent to it, so Wii should enjoy at least  a total of 7 years with sales strong enough to be Nintendo's main console, and most probably keeping the leadership in yearly sales too, but even after Wii2 release it could sell a lot as entry level for another 2-3 years or more, if Nintendo wants to keep on selling it. If the sales curve keeps on going this way, Ninty won't need to launch Wii2 before Autumn 2013, easily exceeding 120M units sold by then (and >140M, even >150M lifetime adding 2-3 years as entry level, for a total of 9-10 years lifecycle).
