That's 8 party/mini-game titles. 2 multi-player casual friendly Mario platformers. A Zelda remake. Two kinda mid-tier Nintendo core releases in Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101. A kids licensed game in LEGO City. And one port of a "hardcore" PS3/360 game, Ninja Gaiden, which had mediocre reviews.
Anyone who can say with a straight face this is a product aimed at "hardcore" gamers when literally 2/3rds of the games are casual fare is out of their mind. A port of the shitty Ninja Gaiden 3 is the only thing expressly not for casuals or kids.
It was for casuals. The casuals just didn't come back, and there were signs they were already leaving later in the Wii's lifecycle.
They didn't support the Kinect either on XBox One.

Wasn't Arkham City, Arkham Origins, Mass Effect, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Splinter Cell Blacklist, Darksiders II, Zombi U, Assassin's Creed III, Assassin's Creed IV, Call Of Duty Black Ops II, Call Of Duty Ghosts, Tekken Tag 2, Need For Speed Most Wanted, and I'm sure a few other hardcore titles I'm forgetting also release first year?
Basically, you missed a few.

Which one of those games wasn't available on a PS3/360 which every hardcore player owned by 2012?
Unless Nintendo is dumbest fucking company in corporate history, there's no way such a system was aimed primarily at hardcore players.
The Wii had Resident Evil, Soul Calibur Legends, Red Steel, Madden NFL, Call of Duty early in its product cycle too.
