you obviously never had the Wii...if you did you would notice the gianormous pile of crap/shovelware that 3rd party had put on the system!!!  Even Nintendo was guilty with adding shovelware to the system in the form of Wii Music!!!*shudders*

There was also a lot of awesome software which couldn't even crack 100k.

It devestated me, I still think Wii controls have a hell of a lot of potential. Dead Space Extraction was great, sold pants. Silent Hill: Shattered Memories was possibly the best Silent Hill game there has been. You can say the same about a lot of other Wii games. Wasn't all Wii owners faults though. Developers wrote the Wii off, got caught off guard with how successful it was and had only committed the shovelware you refer to for the console.

By the time they realised it was a viable format, they needed time to make decent games for it (2+ years) leading to a massive drought. By the time the quality 3rd party releases finally hit the console, the userbase was already bitter/cynical over the shovelware.
