I was actually considering a Wii because of the easy backup loading and homebrew but I'm pretty skeptical about all this motion sensing stuff. You hear stuff about people pulling their muscles playing these games all the time. That's what you get for forcing exercise on people Nintendo. You're better off doing regular exercise than getting it from your Wii. I have like an almost nil chance of injury jogging but I'm not sure I can say the same thing swinging a wii mote around playing Tiger Woods golf. I've never had a video game injury beyond sore joints, blistering and eye strain so I'm gonna have to pass on that. Don't want to miss days of school/work due to a Wii injury. lol.
