I think that it is the games that are, in general, more accessible, and not the unit. For example, I can't imagine my wife with a Wiimote and Nunchuck playing Metroid Prime Corruption.
As for the "less expensive" argument. I am not sure if I completely agree. With the Wiimote and Nunchuck, and now, the Wii Motion Plus, there are lots of components of controller per player. And since party games tend to have four players simultaneously, it can get pretty costly.

Solving problems is a hobby of mine, specially java problems.
