I looked up many of the "cel-shaded" games for the Wii and most of them  
ignored outlines &
character lighting. Of the ones which did implement them, it was painfully  
obvious that they
were using 2D billboards for the characters.

This is a given; the Wii just can't do real cel shading because it lacks  
shader hardware.

Perhaps the reason more Wii games use a form of cel shading is because the  
hardware is
incapable of realistic graphics and imitating cel shading and because of  
the audience of
their games, rather than technical reasons?
