Without the motion controls the Wii was a minor upgrade to the GCN which was the 3rd place console.  Wii stormed out of the gate not because WiiSports was awesome software, but because of Motion controls and nothing more than a decent demo pack (WiiSports) to promote it.  WiiFit kept up the momentum and look at Wii now for every Wii that sells .5 WiiFit sells.  This isnt coincidence and it isnt the software it is the idea of burning calories while playing.  Moms dig it for themselves, and Moms are scared of video games making thier kids lazy and fat.  Motion controls and WiiFit alleviates that fear. The core Nintendo titles have come along for the ride.  Face it and get over it.  Motion is what made the Wii. 

As for my signature that is what I believe. I dont believe individual titles push things much other than temporary blips.

Sorry, I'm just going to continue to assume that you are being enormously witty during this whole thing.

Ho ho ho ho! You almost got me again!
