Should he implement this engine to play mini-games? I honestly think the Wii has the least diverse portfolio of all the systems. Microsoft is doing WAY better this generation about creating more than FPS's and Sony has always done a good job of creating a wide variety of games a la Little Big Planet, Ratchet and Clank, Lair, Heavenly Sword, etc.
 

For the record, Carmack stated back in March that id would be looking at porting their older engines to Wii if there was a demand from license holders for a 3D FPS engine. There is no reason that id Tech 3 could not run on the Wii.

"We have a bunch of brands and maybe we'll look at partnering with somebody with some of our older technology that really would push the limits of the Wii and look at our brands and which are appropriate. See which makes sense, and this version of our technology would look better than any other Wii game out there. We would modify it to make sure things made sense and add things in where possible, because the Wii is a fairly new graphics card, even if it's no a very powerful machine. So there are things we could do to make it look great."
