I think Wii is one of the best consoles ever for those more obscure gems (Little King Story, Rune Factory Frontier, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Trauma Center, Last Story, etc...); the best this gen aside from maybe DS which actually saw some of those obscure titles have huge comercial success (Professor Layton and Phoenix Wright come to mind). For mainstream third party games, outside of Just Dance, the Wii is slim on those titles.

I think the Wii is probably Nintendos worst console ever in percentage of quality titles amongst shovelware. It was the most successful though,success and quality do not always go hand in hand.

I cant believe people didnt like Red steel 2, it is an amazing game, the first FP beat em up ever and a great game overall...The Conduit is good also, No more heroes 2 has an amazing story and aesthetics, Arc rise fantasia is the best jrpg this gen, Grand slam tennis is a great tennis game, Tales for Wii is also good....

i could go on but im very lazy :)
the Wii has very nice exclusives, just not mainstream ones that are advertised as the second coming of Christ...which is pretty much the only thing HD consoles had, advertising and flashy graphics...really sad that has become the standard this gen...

Edit below...

Core of Nintendo is pretty small even though their base is extremely large , the sales of the hot third party gems shows that. A small core coupled with piracy don't make for a good paring in terms of the games everyone expect people to take Nintendo seriously with. Luckily first party did well. Those attach rates for the bundle were crazy. Second of all Red steel isn't a beat em up, its a hack n slash /fps. Punch out was more of a beat em up if you want to use an example.

You put third-party in the title. It would make a lot more sense if you actually followed what your title conveyed.

you made me laugh today for calling them good game

You obviously need more Japanese genes. But if you not like the Monster Hunter series, Tri might not the game for you.

Is the Vita version of Little Kings story the same as the Wii-version or different? The gameplay might be well suited for a handheld. I'm unsure if the smaller screen has impact on overview though.

He lost me when he said Conduit was a good game. Arc rise fantasia is the best JRPG this gen?? LMAO, Xenoblade is better than that and thats on the Wii. Hell any of the Mario and Luigi games is better than that. ANd what the hell is Tales for Wii?? Does he mean Graces?? Cause thats not even exclusive to Wii. 

I do love RS2 but i think 1 was so crappy it burned alot of people

Your phrasing of the thread title is much more interesting than any other for me.
