Nintendo vil fortsætte med at understøtte Wii U, selv med NX lurende ude i horisonten. Dette er blevet bekræftet af Nintendo-præsidenten Tatsumi Kimishima i et interview med Time Magazine:
"At this point in the Wii U lifespan, we're looking at 10 million sell-through for the hardware itself, which is just about a tenth of what we sold overall for Wii. I think our first job right now is to make sure that those 10 million customers who have a Wii U at home have software to play. And we need to make sure that they are satisfied with their purchase and continue to enjoy playing on this platform. So we can't just abandon them and say 'Hey, it's time to move on to the next thing'."
Kimishima bekræfter endnu en gang, at der er masser af oplevelser på vej til Wii U.
