Who knows what caused the drought of 1st party Nintendo games (I suspect it has to do with Wii Motion+ causing delays), but hopefully Nintendo has learned a valuable lesson that they can't depend on 3rd party developers. Sony and Microsoft have to rely on 3rd party developers to maintain their consoles' momentum (they have very few internal software that push hardware), Nintendo thought that establishing a large install base would attract support when it was Nintendo's refusal to conform to the Gaming Industry's demands.
As Wii sales continue to rise, we'll see them get even more desperate. Starving the Wii did nothing thanks to Nintendo relying on internal support to keep momentum, and more gamers waking up to see that in their view they're just idiot consumers who are to be exploited. If you think calling New Super Mario Bros: Wii a "non-game" was bad, just wait until the stunts they'll pull next year.
