Quote:A Boy And His Blob, Gradius Resurrection, Castlevania Resurrection, Excite Truck, ExciteBots, Battalion Wars 2, Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart Wii, Blast Works: Build & Destroy, Castle Shikigami III, Ultimate Shooting Collection, Sin & Punishment (VC), Speed Racer, Nitrobike, Muramasa: The Demon Blade, Excitebike World Rally, Arthur Mclean's Speed Zone, Klonoa, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Zack & Wiki, maybe Dewy's Adventure, Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World, etc... it's not like there's nothing there I want.
About a third of those are Wiiware games, some of them aren't really that great, and I don't think any of them came out within the past year.

In the past 2 years there's been:
Endless Ocean - a fun diversion, but nothing amazing
Super Smash Bros. Brawl - great fan service, but lacking in game
Mario Kart Wii - sequel that doesn't do anything the previous games didn't
Animal Crossing Wii - same as Mario Kart
Wario Land - fun game, but feels like it should have been WiiWare instead
Excitebots - looks fun, but after playing through the first game I'm just not that interested in a sequel
New Super Mario Bros. - An update of NSMB DS, good and I'd like to play it
Punch-Out!! - looks fun, might get it someday when it's cheaper
Wii Sports Resort - played the first to death, not really that interested in a sequel
That's what the past two years have been, two or three fun games and not much else.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.
