Wii era is overrated. Only really Mario Galaxy 1/2, Skyward Sword/Twilight Princess, Xenoblade, Metroid Prime 3, DKC Returns, Mario Kart Wii, and Smash Brawl are "must plays" and a lot of mediocre to "OK at best" third party stuff.

N64 alone had more must plays IMO. Mario 64, Zelda: OoT, Zelda: MM, GoldenEye, Perfect Dark, Banjo-Kazooie, Banjo-Tooie, Star Fox 64, Paper Mario, Star Wars: Rogue Squadron, Conker's Bad Fur Day, Super Smash Bros., Mario Kart 64 despite having a year less on market.

I understand Wii was successful with casuals, but they abandoned Nintendo anyway and a lot of the software aimed at this audience was frankly shit, so not sure what the net end benefit of all that was. In terms of actual high quality games, the Wii is not much better if at all than the N64 or GameCube. It's claim to fame is a gimmick. 

Way more good games on Wii than N64 or Gamecube I'd say. If we're going to mention stuff like Rogue Squadron and Conker, then on the Wii's side I'd add Monster Hunter Tri, The Last Story, Rayman Origins, Silent Hill Shattered Memories, de Blob 1 & 2, Sin & Punishment 2, etc.
