If you're honestly saying Twilight Princess was the reason people bought a Wii you I would personally just laugh. Nintendo got lucky, but you can only bet on the long shot so many times. When it works you get the Wii, when it doesn't you get a Wii U, and honestly when you burn bridges along the way you get less than that.

Lets be honest you guys raising such a big stink will be all like "I hate you Nintendo! You betra ... IS THAT THE NEW MARIO AND METROID ON NX! HOLY SHITIITTITI!!!!!!! WITH A LIMITED EDITION FIFTH SAMUS AMIIBO!!!!!! SOLLDLDDD!", five minutes after Nintendo shows the NX with a few trailers. 

Who are we kidding here. 

The people even willing to buy a Wii U aren't going anywhere, they just raise a big stink on message boards, but they're lifers. 

Nintendo doesn't need to worry about this 10 million audience, they need to worry about the 90 million others who would rather buy a Playstation or XBox. 

Well Nintendo does need to worry about those 10 million. Just not in the traditional sense. Its at the point where kids at Nintendo's prime are adults and are having kids of their own. In a perfect world, those parents will be showing their kids the things they loved as kids, including Nintendo. If Nintendo ticks them off, they will end up losing a valuable resource which will be future customers. It won't be the fans in forums that dictate Nintendo's future. It'll be the parents today who grew up with Nintendo.
