@Cal4m1ty: You're right, PS2 and GC/Xbox is a bad comparision. N64/Saturn and PSX is much better one.
Now, basically you are saying that the blockbuster titles stay on PS360, which may be true if you don't count Wii port as a "lost" game.
The logic with the engines fail in the sense, that assumeably developing a HD platform game costs around the same as developing a Wii game and an engine, so the first game may the the expensive one, but the second game saves costs. Not only that, but devs are able to get faster return of investment.
Then more about the financial side of things, alot of the publishers/developers are in deep shit with the HD dev costs, when their options are either to go to Wii, PSP or DS, from which PSP has problems to sell games.
Then hyping the "unproven" games in advance isn't just limited to Wii fans. I see that a lot in the other camps just as well. Especially the PS3 fans have built a reputation with something like Lair or Haze.
