  The system should still have new and compelling content coming, rather than Wii Music and AC.

Hmmmm...define "new and compelling content", because new to me either means new IP or newly released, and that qualifies Wii Music as both and Animal Crossing as the latter. Compelling means "demanding attention", so that would either mean press or sales. Wii Music has the press, but doesn't have the sales. Animal Crossing doesn't have the press, but will likely have the sales. So again, what do you mean by that?

By new and compelling content, I mean new and compelling content.

Not a horrid music game with GH and RB out there, or another iteneration of Animal Crossing, unchanged in five or six years.  >_>

Gotcha. That's what I thought you meant. Let me rephrase in case anyone else has trouble with what you were trying to say.

"The system should still have games that appeal to my needs and the needs of the select minority of forumgoers that do not particularly like Nintendo games in the first place."

If you want to talk like a gamer, then go ahead. I don't give a crap about either game myself, and will not buy either. If you want to understand why Nintendo's strategy is a success financially and Microsoft and Sony are nothing more than horrible Sega-like business strategies that happen to have enough money not to go under like Sega did, then get your head out of that, "Nintendo isn't making games for me" mentality and start looking at how many different demographics Nintendo has their icey fist wrapped around. You'll notice a trend.

Please don't come with that elitist, "You're a core gamer and don't understand Nintendo" bull.  It's not that I wouldn't want to play Wii Music or Animal Crossing.  It's exactly what I said.  New and compelling content.  Animal crossing is unchanged from it's first iteneration, aside from Wii Speak, and Wii Music is horrible in comparison to a Guitar Hero or Rock Band.
