"We are also planning to launch the Wii U, which is the successor to the Wii, during the next fiscal year. We would like to show the final format of the Wii U at the E3 show next year. As we learned a bitter lesson with the launch of the Nintendo 3DS, we are trying to take every possible measure so that the Wii U will have a successful launch."

Looks like nintendo is trying to make the Wii U not be a 3DS in its post launch/Pre Price drop sales. With this information we can now conclude that Nintendo will plan to release the Wii U at September or November. Since the Wii and Gamecube relased in November. I believe it will relase closer to December then Auguest. Now the big question is. What games are the planning?
