Heh, I just saw this article on N4G. The early 3DS price cut was bad enough, but if Nintendo were to release a full-blown successor to the Wii U within just two years of it's launch they'd be effectively digging their own grave; no one would ever trust them again.
I think the Gamecube's failure and the Wii's massive success(and longevity) pretty much prove that Nintendo needs to provide a radically different experience from their competitors if they want to survive in the home console market.
