No. Nintendo would be beyond stupid to be holding a slew of games out to release alongside a peripheral that will take while to reach the kind of market penetration necessary to really hinge your big releases on. Has Nintendo really even used any of the peripherals they've released beyond the item it was bundled with anyway? The Zapper has seen no 1st party use beyond Crossbow training, the Balance Board with Wii Fit, Mario Kart Wii and the Whiil, though it's too soon to see if they'll make use of Wii Speak



Some games will certainly benefit, but in the end, for any game of theirs to really sell, it can't be obstructed by some sort of peripheral requirement, certainly some games like Punch-Out!! and the new Zelda could benefit heavily from an option, but it can't be required, lest it make it more difficult for consumers.
