That really is quite a fantastic idea (although fortunately the video Yuk04 pointed shows they might already be on the right way). If you wan't to mail them about this you can count me in.

"The rating system should also require you to register the game or at least have played it before being able to rate it. By registering the game, your rating of it would have more weight, but it would require you to punch in the pin number that comes in the box."
What pin number? :-s I've never got one in a game.
viva españa!

That may only be nintendo games that get that insert, but 3rd party games could use the UPC code or something. Usually it's thrown in with all that advertizment paper you get, it'll be a white piece of paper with a blue square surrounding a string of alphanumeric characters that you can use to register teh game on nintendo.com.
Oh, and part of the reason I'm asking other people to write in is I figure of 12 - 100 people write in saying it's a good idea, it might work better than if just one person mentions it

Everyone's Nintendo Channel is the answer. Wii owners would watched movies or play a demo of the game.
yeah....so many wii channels, about wheather, news and news.....but not a single one for Wii or at least nintendo news!!! i hope the everyone channel is something......also more preview channels like the MP3 one.... :)

Maybe it's just in the US. I always look at the inserts and I've definitely never got anything matching that description. I just get the manual and the standard black technical insert.
When I first started reading the topic I thought it was talking about the Everyone Channel. The ability to have each Wii owner review games and have those reviews acessable from the Wii is an awesome idea. Obviously 3rd parties would have the option to include PIN codes with their games for weighted reviews, but it would not be necessary. Using the UPC codes would be too easy to exploit (each box of SMG has the same UPC after all.)
Honestly the Nintendo would be genius to implement it with weighted averages for people who not just played the game on their Wii but submit a PIN proving they own it: Want your review to really count then buy the game! HEH HEH HEH!
I do not see anyway to really cheat the system if it only counts reviews from people who score games the way you do. If you are allowing each Mii to submit a review instead of just once per system people could make a trash Mii to hurt reviews of certain games. Yet, if it checks the play history on the Wii to make sure you've played the game before allowing a review to be submitted, and gives more clout to owners then sales likely won't see much of a negative impact from trolls.
I only have one question: My aunt buys a Wii and only owns Wii Sports, how will it show her reviews if she has yet to submit a review for Sports, and even after that is only one game so I immagine lots of people who have very different tastes in games could all rate Sports an 'A'. How would that be delt with?

You could, i could, but we're talking about the most casual of Wii owners, the ones who apparenlty think games like Chicken shoot and ninja breadman are worth purchasing, simply because they're cheap. These people are teh same ones naysayers are going on about ruining the industry. you can't just boot them out, you have to educate them, and you have to do it in a way that gets that education out TO them. A Wii channel specifically for reviewing games this way would ensure that they had a good game list right at their fingertips. Lets face that, you already said "or any good gaming website, Gamespot, no scratch that." Even if it's a joke, it still demonstrates the basic concept of the problems with finding a "GOOD" game review website. Even if it is a good game, there's still teh issue of the basic differences in what a casual gamer wants vs what a more hardcore gamer wants.
