I wouldn't be. I'm tired of that game and it's revisionist (GOAT) history. Back when it launched, people my age (21 and over) panned it. It was good, but that's it. The people who claim it's some mega godly, epic adventure are usually in their early to mid 20's, who are blinded my their own nostalgia. Good game, not great.
As for the OP's question, I think Nintendo would have bombed had they released the Wii during the PS2 era. Back then, much like right now, core gamers ruled the industry. No one would have wanted to play a game like Wii Sports back in those days. Not enough violence, blood and mature content. That's the reason why Gamecube failed in the first place. PS2 had GTA. Xbox had Halo. Gamecube? Metroid Prime. I loved that game to death but bringing it up online was a death sentence.
