You don't need to stray too much far, Drew. Just check 360's Project Natal and the yet-to-be-show PS3 new controller based on Wii Remote or something like that.
Nintendo don't needs to worry too much about sales, like koopaul said. Wii Fit sells a lot, and don't forget that Nintendo have a strong fanbase in Japan and world-wide. If it got the Nintendo brand, it will sell. Wii was a big experiment if you ask me. Nintendo will likely be more competitive on the next generation.
I decided to try the Wii before buying the other consoles because of this, the different approach was interesting enough (and I used the "I want to get into shape" to convince my folks to don't kill me, LoL). And thanks to the college I'm playing less games I'd like to play, but Wii games so far are pretty entertaining (note: I'm NOT a Nintendo fan, so except for Metroid and Punch-Out you won't find Nintendo stuff here (except softmod stuff))
So far I'm just waiting for good RPGs before deciding, so far none of the current titles appeals to me and I have a good gaming computer. It will be enough for a while.
One thing I notice... Usually by Christmas and summer's vacation (in Northern Hemisphere) they usually release the best and most anticipated games, but in the last few years there are even less releases by then. And both TGS and E3 are kinda... Disappointing, in many ways. Or it's just me?
