Well, you are certainly entitled to your opinion, though mainstream views appear to lie elsewhere going by sales numbers. It's pretty apparent that there are more of "them" than "you", no matter how you slice it. The question is just how many of "them" will throw their lot in with the Wii, of course...

 

So sales are king with or without third party support.

Where is the third party support?

If HW and first party SW sell at a profit, not at loss, for Nintendo it's OK, so much worse for third party SW houses not being able to take advantage from Wii success. The situation will be that Nintendo is near monopolist in its own very big niche, but with a "niche" as big as 50% of the market, how could they be disappointed? The only risk is becoming arrogant, Nintendo just must'nt deceive itself into believing that it can do without third party forever after: this situation must be considered peculiar to Wii and Nintendo must just do its best to persuade third party that they are welcome whenever they want to join.
