Rails shooters play a very important role - they are the pick-up-and-play hardcore game.  No other game is as simple and intuitive to learn.

If I have a friend over who wants to play a game, s/he often doesn't have the time or patience to invest the 2-3 hours required to pick up the control scheme.  That's not a problem with rails shooters.

This funciton shouldn't be understated.

 

Well the real issue is that games like Resident Evil and Dead Space became a success for being great adventure games. So why is the Wii stuck with rail shooters?
