As high-quality as Legend of Zelda? It was a Gamecube game that happens to works with the Wii-remote. What makes you think Nintendo can not top that. Just think how well the controls will work with a new Pikmin or Animal Crossing. For people who can not wait that long there is Battalion Wars II or Mario Galaxy of course.

Third parties… So far I only seen a few unique titles. Most games out there are quick ps2 or psp ports. I don't feel that a lot of them earn a reward at this point.

It doesn't seem like much of a leap of faith to me. Historically, games have improved as the console ages. Isn't it usually around year 3 when games really hit their stride?

As a thirty-something dad with a couple of pre-teen daughters, the Wii (i've hidden in my closet for Christmas) will be our first gaming console. I doubt we will purchase more than 3 games in 2008 - as we represent a broad "beginner" demographic that are not the dedicated gamers you find on XBox and PS3.

Curiosity and faith are part, sure. But the sports games it ships with are almost enough fun for most people. Plus with the increased appeal across a broader demographic, this isn't a surprise at all. For $250, it's actually a no-brainer.

Plus most people don't know, or really care about the 3rd party issues.
