Now it looks like within 2 years Nintendo will have given the Wii what it gave the Gamecube during its entire run. So far all we haven't heard anouncements for new Pikman, Starfox, Luigi's Mansion, Mario Tennis, Mario Golf or Kirby games.

So the Wii is outdoing the Gamecube in terms of traditional major games... The fact that they're reaching out to new gamers as well is a good thing, not a bad thing.
