So how is encouraging people to sell their Wii a good strategy for Nintendo? They want to make money; they know there's an audience that would rather use buttons instead of gestures...

They aren't encouraging you to sell your Wii. I am. If you don't like what is out for the Wii, or you don't like the way the system is played - stop complaining and get rid of your system - because you (the people who complain about the controls) clearly don't like it as a whole.
Angrist, I don't think you're understanding
why Mario Kart Wii and Smash Bros have GC controls, and other games don't.
Those games were
huge last gen for Nintendo. And everyone who played those games played them on GC controllers. The reason it's an option for those games is because everyone who played them previous - played them with a Gamecube controller.
However -
nobody played Donkey Kong Country (or Super Mario Bros, for that matter) on a Gamecube controller. They aren't alienating anyone by not using a Gamecube controller. The last time people played DKC was with an SNES (Same for Super Mario bros), so by allowing you to tilt the controller on it's side, it has much of the same (relative) layout as the previous installments of those specific games.
Now, if DKC and Super Mario Bros. were out for the Gamecube, then sure - you guys would have a compelling argument and some type of case. But since DKC hasn't been around since the SNES, your collective complaining just seems pointless.
