You're right, but I don't think that's the full picture. Even if the Wii was up to performance with the 360/PS3, there still wouldn't have been many ports because they cater to fundamentally different gameplay. Most Wii players never owned the gamepad, only the Wiimote and nunchuck combo.
I think the Wii's problem was only partially related to its performance, and much moreso related to the fact that motion gaming was a fad that ran aground fairly quickly.
It wasn't just the Wii either, remember when the iPhone came out and developers imagined a crappy future where you'd practically fall out of your chair playing a racing or flying game.
Once the novelty of Wii Sports wore off, the Wii was dead in the water. The DS in contrast was a much stronger, much longer-lasting platform that could keep its player base interested for more than a few months.
