Why would the Wii cater to the hardcore gamer? Theres stiff competition from other consoles and theirs more money outside the hardcore crowd. They released the perfect system for the every(wo)man that doesn't care about the guts of the system and depth of the game.
I'm a PC gamer for my real gaming needs but I bought a Wii for my girlfriend. We play it maybe two or three times a week and all we have is Wii Sports and Mario Kart. Her roommate bought Guitar Hero and Harry Potter (lol) for it too but I've never tried HP. Its perfect to play sparingly.
The issue is not with Nintendo. The issue is that hardcore console gamers play too much. Theres not enough games for the Wii to play like that and they lack the depth to keep people coming back. The Wii is perfect for its audience. Don't get your panties in a bunch because you aren't that audience anymore.
