Was the Wii a fad?

They haven't sold well considering the Wii console sales when compared to the 360 or PS3.
My point is that the wii is not for core gamers. No more heros sold just over 520,000....That's barely anything. 

 If the wii is for core gamers, explain the relatively low sales of core games on the console.

Why do I need people to defend me? The sales speak for themselves. 

You're supposed to base each game on its own merit. Each game I listed has sold well for the publishers. It doesn't matter how well they sell in comparison to the PS3/360, as long as they did well for the publishers that's all that matters, and publishers have made it known that these games have sold well. For some reason you can't understand that. You won't even take evidence from the horse's mouth.

About No More Heroes...you know it's a niche game? And despite that it's Grasshopper's best selling game. And you also do know that NMH is also available on the PS3 and 360 right? Do you want me to tell you how abysmal the sales for the versions are compared to the Wii version?

Instead of going off on a tangent, answer the question:

 If the wii is for core gamers, explain the relatively low sales of core games on the console.

Ranting and raving on about the publishers is entirely beside the point. I'm didn't say "Hey Soriku, yo, yeah, y'think the publishers will be happy?" So just answer the question please instead of desperately avoiding it.

God of War III LTD sales: 4.35 / PS3 LTD Sales: 64.1 =  6.78% of PS3 userbase

Uncharted II LTD  sales:  5.58 /  PS3 LTD Sales: 64.1 = 8.70% of PS3 userbase

Killzone III LTD sales: 2.24 /  PS3 LTD Sales: 64.1 =  3.49% of PS3 userbase

Gears of War III LTD sales: 5.37 / XBOX 360 LTD sales 66.5 = 8.07% of Xbox 360 userbase

 

Super Mario Galaxy LTD sales: 10.11 / Wii LTD sales: 95.6 = 10.57% of Wii userbase

SSBB LTD sales: 11.00 / Wii LTD sales: 95.6 = 11.51% of Wii userbase 

Mario Kart Wii LTD sales: 31.95 / Wii LTD sales: 95.6 = 33.42% of Wii userbase

NSMB Wii LTD sales: 25.41 / Wii LTD sales: 95.6 = 26.58% of Wii userbase

 

1) Are those PS3 and Xbox 360 games "core" games?

2) Should those games sale more copys because they are in "core" systems?

 

Edit: it seems we will have to wait for you answer.
