Nintendo had no problem leaving Wii and Gamecube to wither and die towards the end of their lives. One would hope they have learned their lesson, but since we're 12 months away from NX and Pikmin 4 hasn't even been shown, I'm not optimistic.

You don't know we're 12 months away from NX. I'm sick of people treating it being a 2016 release as fact when we have literally been given NOTHING to indicate that yet. If anything, the fact that we're still getting big releases on Wii U proves it's more than a year away, since as you yourself are arguing Nintnedo likes to leave their system for dead for a solid 18 months or so before the next. 

This E3 was practically confirmation that NX is next year; not a single major new game announced for Wii U. All it has left now besides Zelda is late ports/localizations and low budget filler.

Waiting until 2017 is not an option for Nintendo at this point, but then they'd be sunk.
