They killed it because the Wii U is struggling hard. When popular games like Just Dance are released on the Wii, it prevents people from wanting to "upgrade" (as they call it) to a Wii U and it hurts sales. If Just Dance, Skylanders, Disney Infinity, etc. weren't released on the Wii, it would have helped the Wii U sell more units, maybe not tons, but still.

Edit: I don't think that Nintendo should have killed the Wii as early as they did (around the beginning of 2011), but now that the Wii U is out, they should have.
