Yeah, not that difficult to predict we would be seeing a new console sooner rather than later. Wii U just isn't selling and there's only so much Nintendo do to profit from it.(Like Amiibo). I fully expect all Wii U titles to be playable on their next console though.

I do hope they don't call it "Wii" though. That brand is dead. Time for something new. I suggest the "Nintendo Ultra 4K Blow You Away LOL Mobile Gaming What Is That? HD" aka the "Nintendo U4BYALMGWITH"

The GameCube wasn't selling well either and it still held on to the usual 5 year lifecycle, I'm sure they'll do the same with the Wii U. Nintendo might make a lot of stupid mistakes and decisions sometimes, but they know not to be Sega. And I don't think they'll be stupid enough to keep the Wii brand either - though I don't think they'll go for Nintendo, but rather try to create something new like they did with the DS/Wii in the 7th gen.

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the market much bigger right now than it was back then? Isn't the Wii U selling below Gamecube levels?
