1) Make your game on the PC. 2) Get Nintendo to approve it. 3) Hire Conitec to port your game.
so all wee need is to install glovePie, to use the wiimote on the PC, get a DLL to use the wiimote functions and then make a game thats fun. show the game nintendo (isn't it better if we contact conitec so they can show it nintendo? i'm you guys have to get the dev kits etc.) and if they like it, you (conitec) would program the engine to the wii standarts, wich would cost money.
but, if you got the dev kits from nintendo you could ever make a wii game with gamestudio if you want right? I mean then you will have a reworked Acknex engine that runs on wii. so every new project that will ported to wii won't cost so much as the first one.
how about a deal? if someone makes a very good looking and absolut fun game that shows what gamestudio and the user of it can do, you (conitec) will support that game and make it for free. then, you have the dev kits, you have the reworked engine,you have a good relationship to nintendo and even better: everyone could make a wii game, if it is good. but I don't think we will ever come to that point if you guys want have so much money from us just because it is the first time that you are porting something. I mean you get money from it. wii ist the best selling system at the moment. just give us a chance 
in short: don't let the first guy who would make a good Wii game with gamestudio pay all the things you need. If you would help us to get started with a wii project, then we would do it. but if the poor first guy have to pay the stuff for the others, and at the end the result isn't that what we all hoped for (engine side), then the poor first guy REALLY a poor first guy 
p.s. I hope I didn't missunterstood you. but I read in the XBOX thread that the first guy have to pay conitec extra money, because of the extra hour work to port the engine.
