I think people are just sick of getting the bait & switch with every franchise that comes to Wii. It's a parade of genre-busting spinoffs with little in common with the parent franchise besides the IP, and low budgets in common with each other.
Hey, you're getting Dead Space, a third person horror/shooter. Just kidding, it's a rail shooter.
Hey, you're getting a new Resident Evil. A third person survival/horror game? Nope, yours is a rail shooter.
Hey, you're getting a new Soul Calibur fighter! And by fighter, we mean a cheapass hack & slash.
How about a new Castlevania game? Platforming and powerups? No, yours will be a 3D fighting game!
