Third-party titles have sold well on the Wii, actually. Just not traditional titles.

And I don't really care for the whole "Oh but it's a gaming console, it's supposed to be used for gaming" screw that, thats the thinking of yesteryear.
No it isn't. The Wii did fine despite the lack of DVD playback, and it's silly to want movie playback with everything that has a DVD drive. People also appreciate simplicity.

The companies are risk-averse and used to making traditional games, which don't sell on Wii but do on "PS360". It's as simple as that.
