Dude, the DS sold 150 million units. Obviously it sold units close to the 3DS launch. The Wii only sold 11 million units to date. If it sells good during chrismas, than it's clearly an indicator that it's too early for new hardware.

And Nintendo knows that. And Nintendo won't launch a new home console in 2016.

Only if Wii U had good sales, not "good" sales like what's happening.

good sales compared to the last years. Wii U sells better in 2015 than it did in 2014. Every usual company wouldn't throw out a new console at this time.

There's also a difference between "selling 3 million units every year" and selling "8 million units this year insetad of the usual 15 million units". Obviously, the console that sells 3 million units every year has more potential for the future. And that's the Wii U. Compare it with the 3DS: sales are falling and it won't take long until makes losses with it. So they are going to replace it as soon as possible -> late 2016.

Wii U is still profitable -> successor's launch in late 2017.
