Didn't he also say that they weren't releasing any new handhelds any time soon, about 8-12 months before the 3DS released? These are mere words and if things don't improve significantly, there is no reason not to replace the Wii U within, say, 2016, especially if their plans of tandem software development for two simultaneous platforms are to come to fruition. |
The device was announced in March 2010 and released March 2011. So I don't think he said that.

Nah, there was something, I can't seem to find a link. And I meant before the 3DS was announced, small slip-up there. They denied any replacement for the DS not long before the 3DS was announced. They also denied a new 3DS model a few months before the 2DS was officially revealed;

They didn't outright deny the 3DS XL they just said that Nikkei's report was not based off things announced by Nintendo, was full of mistakes and is nothing more than conjecture. Nikkei might have got the larger 3DS right, but car navigation, karaoke and books for the Wii U? Very interesting!
I wouldn't be surprised, though if they had to deny something because someone made a lucky guess, especially when the report came less than a week before the E3 presentation.
