Being that the the Wii was purchased primarily by non-gamers, I doubt 85% of the owners even will see that message because the console isnt even plugged into the internet.


This. Most of the wii's I know are gathering dust making this last ditch attempt somewhat futile. Nintendo really dropped the ball by using the Wii title again. 


That is assuming non-gamers don't connect their systems to the Internet, and that over 85% of people who own Wii's are non-gamers.  There are way too many assumptions being made here, and I am sure Nintendo can tell how many Wii's are connected to the Internet anyway.

True with the last point, but nevertheless most of the Wii's I know of haven't been powered up in quite some time and honestly they may not be. Unless they completely rebrand the Wii U, I really can't see a way out for them to get casuals interested, and nintendo exclusives won't draw core back from the days of the N64/cube as the core market has exploded this gen.
