Yeah, the Wii didn't follow tradition, so it makes sense that many of its games won't, either. Cheap dev costs and a new interface are a great opportunity to explore new ideas.
I get frustrated when games come to the Wii that don't embrace new ideas. I'm playing Little King's Story right now, and it's a great game, but the developers seem to have been under the impression that they were making a PS2 game. Where's the pointer?! Everything about the game is fresh and creative except the interface.
Even a lot of Nintendo's Wii games are more attached to their history than I think they should be.
