Nope it's that they don't feel pressure to release AAA titles so long as the Wii can sell on proverbial Steam and 3rd party games. This gives Nintendo a chance to extend it's heightened sales periods from AAA releases to a time when they wouldn't sell out otherwise. It's also decent for 3rd parties as they get a period of amnesty to get used to the hardware platform and try to come out with some games that are as good as first party(let's face it Nintendo rocks at using the motion controls even on the PS3 a lot of 3rd party devs seem just sloppy or like they tacked it on.) It's bad though because in the meantime we're stuck with mostly 3rd party rush jobs(cause they never saw the Wii coming) and garbage with a few good games and some 1st party titles.

I doubt it... 4 is extremly low as I can pretty much name 4 games from Nintendo yet to come out on the Wii that we know of. Nintendo has a good amount of development studios. Then you have seemingly second party developers like Camelot Software Planning which has only released games for Nintendo systems since 1999(formerly a Sega subsidiary) I think there's a good number of games coming from the big N that we don't even know about just yet, they've always been decent at keeping secrets.
