Yes. They won't have much of a choice.

Lets see, they chose not to last gen, and the gen before, and the gen before that. Oh and every single home console they've ever sold. 

 

Nintendo is coming into the next gen in the best position it has been in since the SNES- N64 transition. They have a choice.

The controller might not be cheap, and if they want to attract the PS3/X360 crowd (which I don't think it'll work) they'll need to close the power gap.

The PS360 crowd will, very soon, be offered a choice between the WiiU, and the PS4 or 720. When this comes, the WiiU will have had about a year of getting games and word of mouth in its favour. The WiiU is in a good position.
