You forgot Wii Music used the balance board as well.
But yes, Nintendo is lousy at supporting their own peripherals. Wii Wheel is only used in two games and Zapper has never been used outside of Link's Crossbow Training.
However they have all been heavily supported by 3rd parties. Except Wii Speak...
There's two reasons for Nintendo's lack of support. One: They don't mandate to anyone, even internally, what must be used. Two: Nintendo will often let a concept germinate for years with a 1-5 person group until the 'fun factor' is distilled and then begin earnest development.
I hope they revisit Project HAMMER for WM+ support though.
