Monolith Soft's X doesn't cut it, because it isn't one of the three big Nintendo IPs

If we don't get a true 3D Mario, a new Metroid by Retro and a proper Zelda game, then what's even the point of owning a Wii U?

is there not dolphin emulator for that?

Not my bag.  I want it on my TV (especially in the case of Metroid, which I vastly prefer with motion controls).

Mario Sunshine was Miyamoto and Nintendo being afraid to make a new IP. The greatest thing about mario games are giving him creative worlds and seeing how he makes his way around them without cat suits and squirt guns. Sure give him a small power or a limited ability of flight but most mario games are played for the simplistic mechanics but difficulty of using that simplicity to make it around clever level design guarded by enemies.

...you can hook your PC up to your computer. I even think there is a way to use th motion controls as well.

Who gives a crap about the hardcore gamer? I want quality games of a wide variety of sorts, and when it comes to games comparable to that Zelda demo, I'm confident we're going to get it, from games like Watch Dogs, X, etc. Meanwhile, as great as a new Mario in the vein of Galaxy would be, this isn't the right time for Nintendo to release such a game. Right now, they need to focus more on the mainstream, who prefer the 3D Land style over the classic 3D Mario games - add in multiplayer and Miiverse, and it's going to be a strong game. DKC:TF isn't a big deal to me, but it's looking very classy at this point. And Wind Waker HD is like OoT3D, in that it's going to be a great game made better by fixing some of its flaws.

And there's no way that, once I get a Wii U (and I've been wanting to get one for a while, but haven't had the money), I'll skip over top-notch games, just to try to scare Nintendo into doing what the hardcore want.

Meanwhile, do you honestly think that Nintendo would just make another Wind Waker type Zelda after Wind Waker HD? Of course not. Nintendo isn't going to waste their opportunity with the new Zelda by making it similar to a Zelda already remade on the system. We MAY get something graphically similar to Skyward Sword (but HD quality), but that's fine with me. When it comes down to it, I trust Nintendo to make Zelda one of the greatest games of the generation, irrespective of the graphical style.

And once again, screw the hardcore gamer. Give me quality gaming over quality graphics anyday.

I'm aware of that.  It's just not my thing.  My PC sits on my desk and my consoles sit with my TV.  And if there's a way to make my Wii remote work with my computer, I'm not really interested in figuring it out--I'd rather they just released the games legitimately.  Call me simple.
