WiiU is 2 years old today, how much do you expect it to last?

I believe that the Wii U will have another 3 solid years of support after this., with the next Nintendo console launch in it's 5th year (2017)

Another 3 years, so 2015, 2016 and 2017. Do you really expect solid support for WiiU in 2017 if the successor is released that year? Don't they need all their manpower for the launch-games of the successor to have a strong launch?

Wii support died after the release of Skyward Sword, a whole year before the Wii U launch, since they needed the teams for the WiiU-launch-games.

Yes, I do beleive we will see support until then, if not at least in the form of 2nd and 3rd party outsourcing of their I.P, in the manner of Hyrule Warriors type deals.
