What Ever Happened to "Quality over Quantity"?

[BreakABone]

I'm probably one of the biggest Nintendo fans on these boards so it may not shock you that I follow news from time to time and was reading an interview on IGN with this little nugget,

The fact remains that 260-plus Wii games shipped last year. By comparison, Xbox 360 and PS3 saw about 170 and 150 releases respectively

Now all consoles have their share of crap on it, its to be expected.
But the Wii released almost 100 more games than the other two.

And roughly off the top of my hand, I could MAYBE think about a dozen or two that were note-worthy even if a bit niche.

And maybe another 2 dozen or so of the usual suspects like ports or sports games and stuff.

So what the hell is the other 200 games? I've seen some truly truly awful and uninspired games at gamestop and stuff, but really like 200 of those exist?

I know Nintendo once got in trouble for being too selective, but maybe they should tighten the reigns just a little bit.
