As a long time Nintendo supported I enjoy all my Nintendo Consoles including my Wii.
As such I am rather confused by Nintendo's marketing strategy for the Wii.
For the Gamecube Nintendo showed alot of support over its short life despite the small size of the install base (22 million) with two star fox games, three Zelda games, a fire emblem games (designed for the console unlike the Wii Fire Emblem), Eternal Darkness, Two Pikmin Games, Two Metroid Games, FOUR mario Party Games and Kriby Air Ride.
Now the Wii 54 million install base three years after Launch has
One Zelda Game originally developed for the Gamecube
A fire emblem game ported to the Wii with lackluster visuals
No Eternal Darkness
Two Pikmin Ports
No Star Fox
One Metroid designed foe the Wii and one collection
One Mario Party Game designed for the Gamecube with gamecube visuals and poor motion controls
No Kirby Games
And a whole lot of games with Wii in the title.
Now does anyone think Nintendo has put to much of its resources into the casual market and neglected the hardcore fans many of whom stayed with Nintendo even through the Gamecube era?
