Pessimists and Wii haters. And morons. Nintendo's finally back on top of the market, they'd be stupid not to do their damnedest to keep that position. Besides which, I highly doubt they'd try to rest on their laurels after what happened with the N64.
Goemon (ie. Legend of the Mystical Ninja) 2-4, + the N64 one.
Uniracers.
Off the top of my head, anyway. There's a ton more, mostly that people've already mentioned. Can't understand what all the fuss about Chrono Trigger is though, maybe I'm just cynical, but the game really didn't seem like the 'OMG-BEST-RPG-EVAR-FTW' material everyone keeps ramming down my throat here. And I got all the endings, too. Great music & graphics though.
In all honesty, I'm more keen for 3rd-party offerings than Nintendo's. Sure I love their 1st-party games and all, the Wii entries into their franchises certainly being no exceptions, but I'm keen to see what some of my favourite companies can do using a new play style. For example, someone suggested a Megaman FPS. Could be to the Megaman series what Prime was to Metroid or RE4 was to Resident Evil, who knows?
As for 1st-party though, probably Wii Fit & Mario Kart. The former's already selling like mad over in Japan I hear.
Interesting choice, I loved Sword of Vermillion as a kid but in retrospect it was pretty mediocre. Wonder why they'd choose to make a series out of such an old game......
There's some good stuff on the VC, including the original Paper Mario. As for something more recent, try Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn if you like SRPGs. The series is brilliant despite what GS's review would have you think.
