Compared to what it was achieving the system is in vast decline. Hardware numbers aside the system has little to no software coming out. Even it if couldn't be considered dying at the moment the software issue will kill it in swift order.

No, it has a poor listing of software for this quarter. No games have been listed for the rest of the year. So the software issue is part of the fallacy of assuming it doesn't exist unless someone says it's being released.
Quite a number of games on many systems have been unknown until E3 shows. That will show whether the software is there.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Hey, I love my Wii more than any other console but let's face it. It's going down, and once the Coffeeshop is out I don't see any reason for Nintendo to continue supporting it. It's better for them to put all resources into their new console.

Why? The cost would be a lot higher to make nothing but games for it, and it would ignore the existing userbase, which are still buying their games.

It's not my fault they don't tell people that games are coming out. Who wants to buy a system that only has poor titles or none announced? If they choose to not try to excite and make consumers aware it's nobody's fault but they're own that this perception exists.

The perception seems to be more among those who want announcements well before games are ready. Sales have shown the hype just in the months before is more important than hype six months or so before.

My point still stands. They could eliminate it entirely they just don't care to. So if misperceptions get tossed aboutby a very vocal minority they have no one to blame but themselves.
OP: I agree with you 100%. I hate when people are like "The wii has such terrible sales!" The sales def are not as good as before and yes its getting beat in most (almost all?), but the sales are not bad. The wii still has alot of life left in it.

Except the vocal minority, aside from being a minority, doesn't tend to not buy games just because Nintendo didn't announce them sooner (if they don't buy games, they have other reasons).
Other M was announced a year sooner than Donkey Kong Country Returns, and which sold better?

I am saying that the misconceptions that no games are coming out for your system comes from that vocal minority. Because as far as they can tell no games are coming out. If Nintendo has a issue with such fallacy being spread it would be easy for the to do something and they obviously dont care.
DKCR sold much better. I wasn't talking about sales. I was talking about there being no games and the misperceptions that are spread around because Nintendo doesn't care about this segment of the gaming population enough to show them a fucking list.
