Nintendo fans have forever defended the crappy graphics, let's go back to the older systems. I had my Amiga 500, much better graphics than the PC or the NES at the time. But people who had the NES were convinced that what they had was better anyway. 1991, Look at the Gameboy. I had a color LCD on my Atari Lynx, looked way better than the Gameboy's green dot matrix screen. Oh, but the Nintendo has "better games." I was like "are you kidding me, "do you know how old Tetris is?" and that was back then! It's the same today with the Wii, but I actually think with the Wii, they have something that's just a little bit different. I like it. But the graphics are way behind the times!

I have a Wii but really the softare library pales in comparison to the PS3 and 360. I'd rank them in terms of software
PS3 >>>360>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Wii That said I'd love to have an HD zelda, mario, side scrolling metroid, etc with 5.1 at the minimum, hopefully lossless though ![]() |

Great graphics do not equal a great game, as we have seen time and time again. The Wii may have sub par graphics to the other makers, but gameplay on the Wii is far superior to the others. There is more than enough room in the market for the Wii to coexist peacefully with the other, if you don't like the graphics, you don't have to buy it, but considering its kicking both Sony and M$'s butt, apparently they are doing something right.

As for far superior gameplay, well it depends on the game. There are far more games that I enjoy on the PS3 and even 360. For example I haven't played an action game on the Wii that has nearly as good as gameplay as Uncharted. Bottom line is I want both and would have gladly payed another $100 or more if need if it would have given me a Wii games like Super Mario Galaxy, Zelda but with PS3 graphics and sound. Of course I don't think Nintendo would have sold nearly as many systems but that doesn't change my personal wants. |

![]() It's enjoyable and a good group exercise when guests are over. Now, when I play 'my games' on the ps3, 360, or pc, they look fantastic - as they should. However the overall experience is too different in my mind to compare the wii to the others. |

One thing y ou have to keep in mind about nintendo too, is that there are a LOT of games for the Wii that are aimed at young kids (8 & under). Xbox has a few that are suitable, and PS3 has even less.
This is a BIG selling point for a lot of parents who are thinking about getting somethign their kids can play that they can enjoy too, and this is certainly helping sales. I know a few parents who got their kids a wii last year because the amount of games that were suitable for children were few and far between on the MS & Sony systems (not counting the PS2). I see a lot of parents with young kids at Target & Walmart hovering around the Wii section. Lots of options for them, whereas stuff like GTA4, Metal Gear Solid, Gears of War, etc fills the rack for the 360 & PS3. camper |

Not to mention once they buy it, they don't have a kid sitting alone in his room playing hours on end, or online talking with freaks much older them. They have a system capable of family enjoyment and time. I know that was a huge selling point for my aunt and uncle when they got it for their three girls. I also fall into the group that does not compare the WII with the others. I used to consider myself a "hardcore" gamer, but the fact is i don't have the time to spend hours a night playing. What i do have is time with friends to sit down and have some fun. The graphics do not impact that experience for me, and frankly to many games come out now a days with the focus on the graphics and look rather then gameplay. The other thing to keep in mind is not everyone frequents the blu-ray forum with their HDTVs and $400 movie players. HD is not the selling point it will be next gen. Sure i would like it, and i am sure its a deal breaker for many on this forum lol. But world wide what is the penetration of HDTV's? Wii knew who they were gunning for, and they did it well. I just hope to get one soon ![]() And if they do go HD next time around i hope they do so cost effective, and not at the sacrifice of gameplay. For now the WII's graphics are plenty impressive enough for me to consider it THIS GEN, and 720p seems to be too much focus imo for the benefit you actually get. |
