Yeah? You think Nintendo is going to have another Wii? The Wii was a successful because it was a fad with non-gamers, That's why it went from 17 million sales in 2010, to 11 million sales in 2011. The odds of Nintendo being able to pull that off again are very slim.

Look at the support Nintendo gave Wii in 2010 & 2011.

2010

Endless Ocean: Blue World

Super Mario Galaxy 2

Sin & Punishment: Star Successor

PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure

Metroid: Other M

Wii Party

Kirby's Epic Yarn

FlingSmash

Donkey Kong Country Returns

 

2011

Mario Sports Mix

Wii Play: Motion

Kirby's Return to Dream Land

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Fortune Street

So? There were still 4 Wii games in the top 10 best selling games in 2011. By 2011 the fad was over and nobody cared anymore. That lack of carring carried straight through to the launch of the Wii U.

Where are all of those Wii owners? They didn't stop buying Wiis because the new console was coming out, because they didn't buy that either.
