Abyss Master on 21 February 2011
The Wii's lagging behind can be attributed to a single issue; software. Nintendo's last great system-seller was New Super Mario Bros. Wii right before 2010 hit - since then, we've had great games but none that really appeal to this vast, untouched market that do not have a Wii yet. If you wanted a Wii for Wii Fit, you've got one. A Wii Fit-like game is not going to magically cause a new explosion. Likewise, Donkey Kong Country Returns didn't exactly light fires, because it's close enough to NSMBWii.
From here on, Nintendo's got two things that have remained unaddressed in gaming; Skyward Sword and the Vitality Sensor. How they play these two elements out will be interesting to see.
