Not the Wii itself but rather Nintendo's support of it after 2010, I'd say. It ended 2010 as the best-selling home console of the year; it would be another 11 months before Nintendo released its next and final AAA title for the system, and another 12 months before it launched the WiiU (and even then, you could argue it took another year from then before it released its first AAA WiiU title, SM3DW). I don't think the Wii was innately damaging to Nintendo's home console business, I simply think the company's release schedule for its home consoles since 2010 has been self-destructive.
