Actually, I'm pretty sure the wii will be dominating the console marketplace soon, if it hasn't already. Sure, the other consoles may be more powerful, with better graphics, but they're really just updated versions of the same old cr*p. It's still wiggling joysticks and tapping buttons to manipulate on screen objects.

The wii sort of bridges the gap between reality and games by forcing the players to actually perform the actions they wish their on screen counterparts to take. It makes for a great workout. In fact, at least one person has used that as his primary form of exercise in a weight loss program (just google wii diet for the details).

I'm pretty sure that most hardcore gamers would agree with you about the wii, but most everybody else is going to go for the idiot-friendly wii.

History has shown that people will invariably go for cheap and idiot friendly over the more powerful (and more expensive) options.
