Why do most third party publishers ignore the Wii completely ?

[Squilliam]

I don't think it should be ignored that the treatment of the Wii this generation is nothing less than a tragedy for gamers. Whatever your take on the Wii it cannot be discounted that we're about 2-3 years behind where we ought to have been in terms of actually taking advantage of a new interface and integrating in seamlessly into games. The fact they haven't even cracked pointer control in FPS games on the Wii is testament to this.
