The Wii honeymoon is over in Japan. Sales of the hardware are down week over week. Why? Three reasons. 1) The Wii user base is all over the place, and Nintendo (and to some extent, third parties) don't know what to do about it. 2) Too few games, and what is being released is either too shallow, doesn't fit the user base (Fire Emblem), or is just plain old crud. Certainly nothing resembling a killer app. 3) Wii Sports. We've seen it. We've played it. Next please. Super Paper Mario will give the system a boost for a few weeks, but I predict that will be short-term. After that? Well, looks at the release schedule and judge for yourselves.
