Rail shooting is a DIFFERENT kind of gameplay. It is not de facto "inferior". You don't have to like it, but gameplay styles are not about which is "superior". It's actually that mindset that has locked HD developers into expensive shooters, which most of the gaming community agrees is stifling innovation.
If you mean "simplified", that isn't inferior either. For one, Wii Sports's control flaws are not because they are simple, but because they are flaws in the way it's supposed to work (like Wii Boxing not always registering a punch).
If you mean "not the experience we wanted", that still isn't inferior. That's just gyping you out of the experience you wanted. I can actually sympathize with that.
Plus how does that counter how the graphics look? Even the HD snobs note the game looks good. The graphics actually were the focus in this game, and perhaps they can use that to push the Wii in proper titles. And if you think that won't happen, note that the director or RE5 got confidence in the Wii's graphics from RE: DSC, another rail shooter.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
