Some of the logic is these posts is astonishingly stupid. You people are really, I mean really, just something to behold. It's stunning really.
Do you people really have any idea about the demographics and purchase patterns of Wii owners? Your bulk of users are ages 3-17 and you have the largest constituency of users age 50 and older. The 18-35 crowd lives on the 360 and PS3. They are the ones who, generally speaking, buy the games drawing your complaints. They just don't exist on your console. You Wii gamers -and you are hardcore gamers for the most part- are the minority of Wii owners. You are swamped in your system by 7 year olds and middle agers who think Wii Fit is a video game.
You people represent the EXACT same business model as Nintendo's last two generations. Take away the gimmicks and Wii-cercise garbage and you have the same system as N64 and Gamecube only staying in the game because we all want Mario, Zelda, and Metroid. Yes, we all know Brawl is fun, so is Mario Kart. Still, you don't have the demographics. READ YOUR SYSTEM'S CURRENT AND UPCOMING RELEASES and you can see who the games are being made for!!!!!! The mature titles are the rare outliers!!!!! Here is your market for Wii:
Pony Friends 2
Step to the Beat
Sponge Bob's Boating Bash
Build A Bear Workshop
Dance Sensation
Fix it Home Improvement Challenge
Diva Girls: Diva Ballerina
Playmobil Circus
And if you aren't too lazy you know that I could go ON and ON with Ponies, Rainbows, Hunting Simulators and Step Aerobics.
EDIT: Please don't take this as an insult to Wii-playage or ownage. I think Wii has a lot of great stuff. Unforunately the vast vast bulk of it is the exact 5 or so core titles we see every iteration. The Wii gamer market isn't special or different. You are just playing sharing a console's fate with an expanded market of people who would have never have bought a system before. Let's get anecdotal: I know 7 households with Wii, 2 are over 50 couples, and 2 are my grad student friends who happen to be female and they (both) own NSMBWii, Wii Sports, and Guitar Hero, and that's it. All of these people mentioned ignore their Wii's for large periods of time.
