I'll probably still get Zelda: Skyward Sword by end of the year for Wii. 
  Wii's swann's song, no doubt.  And perhaps even happens like TP: 
launched for both GC and Wii.

Motion control games so far have only been used for simplistic sports 
mini-games collections, fun for a while but ultimately too shallow and 
repetitive.  Z:SS OTOH will deliver 1:1 sword playing, shield defensing, 
arch&bow, canoeing and more all in one top adventure game.  The Wii was 
built for games like this, but hardly delivered...

There's always the mobile versions, of course.  Fusion on GBA had better 
controls than SM, but still not quite the feeling of SM.  There's also 
Metroid Zero, which is basically Metroid 1 revamped with 16-bit 
graphics.  Many great side-scrollers found much better home in the 
Nintendo handhelds, including the awesome series of Metroidvanias from 
Konami since Castlevania:SotN.

I was talking specifically of Metroid:Other M for Wii.  Not quite so good.
