There aren't really any "hardcore games" on the wii. Those that are are mostly single player and don't take much advantage of the wii remote besides the pointer. You also won't find many online games (which is broken anyway due to the friend code restrictions). Most casual/social games have simplified or too forgiving controls. They're nice at first but you'll grow tired of them soon. And unlike what you may believe, there isn't that much quality casual games either (besides from nintendo). Heck, even the mario/sonic olympic games are waggle fests. They then introduced wii motion plus, which is supposed to give you greater control. It does. But there's hardly any games for it. Anyway, there's a rumor of a Wii HD console.. Nintendo has a conference somewhere at the end of february. Might stick it out if you want. Xbox 360 or PS3 are pretty much even. Most games come out on both platforms. They both have some interesting tech coming out this year. (Natal and the ps3 wand).
