The HD consoles gaming library sucked 1-2 years ago and still suck today (of course that is my opinion). The Wii is 100% backward compatibility (I missed the GC games), it has up to 4 different control options (GC controller, Wiimote, Wiimote + Nunchuk, classic controller), free online (and a browser), cheaper games, the best retro selection of games ever (VC) and games that couldn`t be done on other consoles (the best exclusives).
For me it has all the characteristics I like on my consoles. It is cheap, reliable, has great exclusives and is very flexibility - SD cards, 3rd party peripherals, Wired or wireless internet, different control options for VC games.
