Nintendo didn't create the next Wii — Apple did

The Nintendo Wii was an unqualified success, so popular that even the console's creator was unable to duplicate it with its successor, the Wii U. Barely three years after Nintendo's latest console went on sale, the company is already hard at work on the NX. What form it will take is less important that Nintendo's tacit acknowledgement that it's time to move past the Wii U.
