I personally have no problem with waggle in Super Mario Galaxy but it's bit annoying in New Super Mario Bros Wii.
But it's not bad as Donkey Kong Country Returns. strawberry float hell, shaking the remote to be able to roll is pretty daft when it's one of most used abilities in the game. Glad there's no shaking in its 3DS version nor in its sequel, Tropical Freeze.
Anyway! While in Wii's generation, I didn't play it much as I do with my Xbox 360 - I was hugely into 360 scene at time, but I still loved my Wii, I got my Wii on my 21st birthday, while I didn't play much of it on a day as I went to pub night out with my mates, it did make up great day after to help me cope with my hangover
It houses lot of excellent games that I wouldn't be able to play on anywhere (other than PC, if I feel like that way) and Virtual Console was also really amazing.
Then Super Smash Bros. Brawl came, and it actually lead to making new friends online which I still talk to. Sure, we've boneded but it was Brawl that made us want to stay in touch so we can battle with each other.
Honestly Super Mario Galaxy is one of most prettiest game, and I think it looks much better than most of 360/PS3 games and it was on SD console. Of course, it being SD console did annoy me a bit because of jaggies on my TV, yeah yeah I'm pretty picky but it just bothers me when it's not "smooth". Thankfully it's not too bad via Wii U's Wii channel so I now play my Wii games on that, but yeah I think I put off playing some of games because they look worse on HDTV than others on Wii system itself.
Wii, while not one of my favourite Nintendo consoles, it's still very good console and I'm really glad I have my system to enjoy the games I wouldn't find on PS3/360.
