Yes, but the Wii is an outlier. Nintendo gambled and it payed off. Not only that but Motion Gaming was tried and had failed in the past there was no way Nintendo could've predicted its success, and they have failed thus far to replicate that in the Wii U, which is otherwise just following the trend.
