i strongly believe this is the last generation where we have a graphics buff group that are all about graphics and not gameplay. first, nintendo graphics card is nice. i've seen games take advantage of the card tremendously. resident evil 4: wii edition was a nice direct port from the original ps2 and gamecube format and that alone lets us know ports can be done on the wii without and downgrade-nation.
second, i just think developers are lazy and they look at the wii as a console for easy profit and to gamble with the game to see if any consumers will bite and purchase the game rather than put much effort because a wii game doesn't cost as much as an 360 or ps3 game.
third, the wii HD would be treated the same way as the original wii if the HD version was to ever come out. it would be an "ooooh aaaah" for a few development games and then the developers will just begin to push shovelware on the console and it will be just like the original.
i personally don't understand developers on the wii. the wii has so much potential and yet they don't fully take advantage of the console when it comes to ports on top tier games i.e. resident evil 5 or grand theft auto 4. people say that the ps3 is getting the end of the stick when it comes to multi-platform games from the 360, we mines as well say the same about the wii. those games (resident evil 5, grand theft auto 4) can make it to the wii but several things factor in from a developers perspective like graphics, disc capacity, wii controls and demographics.
