Nintendo Gaming / RE:Nintendo expects little profit from Wii in first year, to be sold at or near loss?

Nintendo doesn't want to shoehorn functionality into games that doesn't enhance the experience in a positive way. This is the reason there was no gameplay touchscreen control in MKDS, and why SSBB will use a traditional controller. SO, why should they force 3rd parties into using the Wiimote/nunchuk combo?
A game which uses a traditional pad shouldn't be turned away because it doesn't take advantage of the Wiimote. As BMFrosty has said (and many others before), Nintendo is an "AND" company.
I'm not saying it'll happen for sure, but I see one choice rising above the others: Pack in the Classic controller with the Wii.
P.S. - As people who have actually held the controller keep saying, the analog stick placement is fine (although I think Pro was joking, at least a little).
