Nintendo fans only - Are you happy with Nintendo's First Party offerings?

The problem I have with the Wii is the replay value. There's no point going back to my games after you beat them 2-3 times. Something like a Trophy or Achievement system (or in-game rewards like Mario Kart Wii and Super Smash Bros. Brawl) for every game would make the experience a lot better and last longer in my opinion. Right now, I have no more ''new'' games to play on it... I usually just go back to play my Virtual Console/WiiWare games.

Also, during the first 2 years of the GameCube, Nintendo were only missing Zelda (released in December 2003), Mario Kart and Fire Emblem, but Fire Emblem can not be counted in my opinion because it was a totally ''new Fire Emblem 3D IP.'' It's easy to make a sequel with the same engine, but think about it when they had to rethink the whole series for the current generation of consoles. The GameCube already had Star Fox, Super Smash Bros, F-Zero, Metroid, Super Mario, and even new IPs like Pikmin. I'll make a full list if you want, and I'll say this to you now: the GameCube's 1st party line-up at that time was amazing.

I'm not saying the Wii's line-up is not good, heck, it's probably the best one out there! Such quality titles, but I still think it misses that little special thing the other consoles have nowadays (chatting online and stuff, though Wii Speak is a good beginning toward the good stuff). Nintendo is changing things in the gaming world, but they should not deny the obvious good choices that came out from Microsoft and their Xbox, trying to do something about the online gaming community (it even made Sony do something about it with their new firmware updates). These are good upgrades in my opinion and should not be left behind. Here's hoping the Wii 2 and its games will still have the revolutionary features the Wii introduced, but will feature those ''other'' extra features as well (I'm not talking about a DVD player or media player stuffs).

Like everyone else said though, I think Nintendo is giving 3rd parties time to prove themselves with the Wii. Let's see how The Conduit turns out like. I've also heard good stuff about MadWorld. Are SEGA the only 3rd party trying to make good Wii games though?
