Actually it just shows how stubborn people like you and Ian can be.
Oh, I'm being grouped now. Awesome. Ironically, the response from the start to "people like Ian and I" has been, "you're so impatient. wait for E3, wait for TGS, wait for GDC, wait for DICE, wait for 2008 then you will totally see, etc" and one by one not a whole lot of results seemed to pan out. About a year and a half later, the line has been re-drawn enough times that perhaps it's time that the people that insisted on redrawing it reflect a little on the labels they have been quick to issue all the while. I digress.
Running off lists of games we personally like is easy. I can do the same, but it unfortunately has gaping holes between their releases. Anecdotal lists don't prove anything either way, including stubbornness, when there has always been cash in hand waiting to be spent. The 3rd party situation can be fluffed up any way desired, lists or not, but it won't change that there are issues.
I am aware that wanting more AAA games (from all parties) to fill gaps is controversial and evidently worthy of argument, but consumers are allowed to be demanding. As for adaptability, that's not the consumer's problem either (other than being handed the results).
I think you summed up your position perfectly, you don't like the games out and since they don't please YOU, then support must be lacking. People (Not sure if you were in this group or not) were dooming Wii before it came out, and turns out they had no idea what you were talking about. Nintendo has been doing great, and so have 3rd parties who have actually took time to actually create games for Wii (Capcom, EA, Ubisoft to name a couple). Is it perfect? No but things are getting better, we are finally starting to see people like High Voltage, EA, and THQ start to take more risks with Wii with games like Conduit, Boom Blox (Oh noes, one of those casual games how horrendous), and Deadly Creatures.
Wii Ware is also showing extreme promise for more traditional and "hardcore" experiences but you don't even mention that. I'm sorry that you cannot see that the 3rd party situation is and HAS been improving over the last year and a half, especially over GC, but it is the truth. Now will we be seeing more traditional, ground-up, games for Wii from Third Parties? Well I have no idea, but that does not make the casual games any less valuable because they don't satisfy BigJim. It is a fascinating situation and it is ridiculous to start stating the sky is falling when the Wii and its concept are young.
Please look at the DS as a reference to how long it takes for 3rd Parties to actually start taking risks, it took close to 2 years before it got any substantial support. Now to be clear, I do NOT think the 3rd Party situation is perfect, but I think putting most of the blame on Nintendo is silly. It is kind of funny, perhaps the biggest budget title on Wii, Red Steel, showed right off the bat how 3rd parties can be successful. That was a game that Nintendo worked with Ubisoft on as well. Now who's fault is it really to not take a second jump? Both a 3rd Party AND Nintendo did their job, but 3rd parties still floundered in indecision and crappy ports.
Now I will give you a point, many of us were wrong when it came to what to expect from 3rd Parties. I personally thought we were going to see a bit more risk being taken at this level, though that does not mean I am not pleased at all with the situation because there have been some surprisingly great Wii games (And it isn't just my opinion) from 3rd parties. Is it slower than I would like? Sure. Am I a bit disappointed? Yep, to a degree. Am I completely unsatisfied? Heck no because there have been pleasing games released by 3rd parties!
P.S. You can also argue "gaps" in between games is relative to an individual as well. I could argue 360 and PS3 have had a ton of gaps as well for myself, does that mean they have big problems with 3rd parties? No, it just means the games that were released did not interest me. On the flip side I've always found something to play on Wii, so there have been few if any gaps since I've consistently bought a Wii game or two a MONTH since it was released.
