You’re right, of course; but I think Apple would prefer you buy an iPod Touch model as the Wii has shown how precarious game play can get on them. An Apple patent for a 3D controller, similar in function to the iPhone and Wii, is expected for the Apple TV box as well. It looks like Apple will be using the iPhone as a vehicle to get game programming for OS X to improve, instead of being ports from PC development.

Interesting video, and I like this feature on Mactropolis. I’d like to see video of any sort, even if its simply summarizing the article posted, or maybe even a recap of the day in Mac.
As for the topic at hand, I’m reserving judgment. I know Apple gaming (especially portable on the iPhone) will be huge by default, Apple is trendy, whether or not a product is good is irrelevant. Whether or not the gaming is worthwhile, or simply cell phone gaming on a larger screen, we’ll have to wait and see.
