I'll give you Mario Galaxy, but I'll put at LBP budget or Infamous level. Now let's analyze the big Nintendo Games.

Wii Sports

Wii Play

Wiifit

Mario Kart

SSBB

Mario and Sonic

Legend of Zelda

Mario Party

Wii Sports Resort

 

These are the biggest Wii published games to date, this doesnt tell you why third party games do not do those big budget games on that system.  They are just learning from Nintendo.

I'm pretty sure you're drastically underselling the budget that Nintendo throws behind many of its games. I doubt they come cheap. The only games on your list that probably didn't cost much to develop were M&S and Mario Party, neither of which were developed internally. The others... I admit I have as little data to back up my belief over their budget as you, but if any of those but Wii Play was done cheaply I'd be stunned. Zelda and Brawl in particular could not have come cheap, and developing the hardware for Fit and Resort likely cost a pretty penny as well.

I can I undersell when I NEVER CLAIMED they cheap. Neither of us know the budget, but if they are the big budget games, you can see why third party have ahard time making games on the Wii.
