And why does every game for the Wii have to have a stupid gimmick to go along with it?

Because if the Wii tried to compete with the PS3 and 360 on anything
other than silly gimmicks and "Unique" control systems, nobody would ever have bought one. The Wii is the gimmic console, this is news to nobody. It does that very well though, certainly well enough to have created a pretty big userbase. Whether people will be willing to pay full price for a boxing game when you get one in both WiiFit and Wii Sports remains to be seen and I suspect that except for nostalgia fans, the answer will be no. Multiplayer would help but of all the people I know who own a Wii, I can't think of a single one who plays online at present.
I think of more interest from the Nintendo conference so far is the new model DS and the release of SD cards for the Wii.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
