I think all the devs see the Wii as $$$$
"Hey, check out how many people have this system, and how simple the popular games for it are! Lets spend the afternoon making a some silly minigames and make a bunch of cash. Then we can get back to making cool games like Gears of War"

I see Nintendo coming up with some pretty cool games for the Wii, but everyone else seems to be in minigame mania. Big, epic games will always be on the console with a regular controller and better graphics.

 I agree and it's a shame. I don't think devs WANT to push the Wii to it's limits. They see it as a way to make a quick buck. All the PS2 ports with lame waggle controls added on seem lazy to me. I understand they were caught off guard, but even announced games aren't impressing me. The lack of creativity is disappointing and I don't think all this port business is what Nintendo had in my mind. 

It's too early to judge since games take time to develop, really.  If it's like this in a year's time, and I really hope it isn't, then we'll have every right to bitch. I doubt it though.  

Dodo's could get away with being fat and lazy for awhile, but they couldn't hide away forever, and eventually competition did them in.

Developers who take the same route will be in for a rude awakening once their competition starts putting games out with more polish.
