There's more than what you're listing on the Wii. You just gotta do the research. Spend some time in the Wii subforum. I've been really lazy with keeping up with adding games to my library on this site and adding to my wishlist. But my mental wishlist is pretty huge. I've seriously played through like only maybe a dozen Wii games (I have 5 systems and sometimes dip into the PC and even PS2 end so that's why I'm only at a dozen or so). I barely touched (I plan on playing through them all. It's just a matter of getting to them... lol) Shiren, Sakura Wars, Trauma Team, Another Code R, NSMB Wii, Baroque (I have a huge backlog, what can I say) and some others so I'm not going to count those. On top of that I got a huge wishlist. I just have too much hardware to juggle.
The Wii isn't light on good software. It's just lighter than a Xbox 360 or PS3 I guess. I say I guess because I don't know. I've lost a lot of interest in the HD systems as of late. I'm just not in the mood for that kind of experience right now. I'm in a handheld gaming mood right now (I'm not excited about Portal 2, Mortal Kombat, etc. I'm just not the type that gets super excited for a game just because it's heavily marketed on gaming sites. Portal wasn't exactly my favorite type of game and I'm not a big fighting game fan. I'm super eager to play Catherine and Dungeon Siege III to a lesser extent but that's about it for recent HD releases off the top of my head. inFamous wasn't my thing so not excited for inFamous 2. There's always the possibility that LA Noire, Red Dead Redemption, Assassin's Creed, etc. could be something I could find really enjoyable. But I never was the type to feel "oh man I gotta play that" with the latest AAA big-budget blockbuster being pimped out by IGN, GameSpot, GameStop and my peers. There has to be something about the game that is familiar or interesting enough for me to really feel like I gotta play it. I was hyped for Heavy Rain because as a big visual novel nut, the whole interactive movie thing is a good fit for me. Catherine has that whole half-visual novel thing going for it and it's made by Persona team so that's why I'm eager to play it. And Dungeon Siege is kinda like Diablo so Dungeon Siege III (while not super excited for it by any means) seems like a safe bet for a good time waster.
There's gotta be something to get my attention beyond how hyped it is by the gaming media and gamers. Far too often I've given hyped up AAAs a chance only to find that it's not my thing. And then I get told I'm crazy for not having the same tastes that everyone else in my peer group does (ie. my dislike of FPS games, Gears of War, God of War and other AAA titles that just didn't grab my interest). I'm more of a niche gamer and I'm sort drawn to niches as well when it comes to television and movies. I mostly watch Premium channel content or premium-like content. I don't watch much network television. That I am itching to watch some Jersey Shore, which is far from premium but it looks so bad that it seems entertaining to watch. To me, AAA blockbusters are a lot like network television to me. Every so often I'll really dig a particular AAA blockbuster just like I dig The Big Bang Theory. But I find that my tastes are more niche-oriented than not (whether it be games, television, movies, anime, whatever).
