It's not just bad Wii games. Badly-marketed Wii games also sell badly. The amount of skimping on advertising that third party developers (and even first-party developers, for games without the word 'Wii' in the title) is not only grossly incompetent, but also a self-fulfilling prophecy. It doesn't matter how good your game is if nobody knows that it even exists.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
