This is the actual quote from the Nintendo rep:
"“This isn’t an announcement from our company.” The spokesperson added, “From the next quarter and thereafter as well, production [of the Wii U] is scheduled to continue.”
That actually doesn't necessarily discount what Nikkei reported. Nikkei is saying Wii U production will halt within the year end, Nintendo doesn't actually deny that point.
If Nintendo halts Wii U production in say September of this year ... then technically what the Nintendo rep is saying isn't false. They also don't directly say Nikkei is false from the actual quote given.
This is just damage control from Nintendo.
