No, there is no reason for the graphics to bother me. See i dont think graphics make the game like a lot of other people do. Sure if the zelda games looked like link was a square box and his sword was a pixalated stick then i would have a problem with it. But of couse you like most other people are always comparing the Wii to the PS3 and 360 even though those are more powerfull systems. But anyways take your mind of the other systems and compare the graphics of games for the Wii to other games for the Wii. If one Wii game has spectacular graphics then another game comes out and the graphics suck out loud then cmplain about it.

i know graphics dont bother many nintendo fanboys but just knowing that the wii can do so much more than all the games that have been released, it bothers me. So, what if the wii is not as powerful as the competitors, atlest make games capable of what the wii can do. I hope developers learn from super mario galaxy, cause its the only amazing looking game on the wii. Heck! why dont they use the same engine.

Of course they do. Plenty of games are just a plain eyesore. Luckily games like Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, and Super Smash Bros look really nice... but of course they are all first party titles. Sonic and the Secret Rings looks good, but thats about the only 3rd party game that looks better than average. I suspect the general graphical quality will improve soon however. Or at least I really hope so.

im pretty sure a lot of you woud be mad if nintendo made a mario game that had bland colors and blurry textures because mario is all about colorful enviroments, mario is all about interaction with that colorful world, and in order to interact with that colorful world you need gameplay, that is pretty much proof that graphics do matter. I doubt you would enjoy super mario galaxy in 8bit form.

I've never cared. All the way back to the introduction of 3D games I didn't care. I'd always wanted more content above prettier visuals. However, I would like to address this concept people seem to have about the "potential" of the 360 and PS3. The 360 already had its breakout graphical showcase in Gears of War. Sure, games will come that will surpass it, but not by all that much, all things considered. The Wii, however, has not had anything above GameCube level. Mario Galaxy will be its initial graphical showcase. You can look at Gears of War and feel that Mario Galaxy visuals are fine, then I'm sure there's not going to be a game down the line that changes that.

all I can say is duh... of course they are not as good. but it doesn't really matter. graphics are purely cosmetic. and if it bothers you so much, read the reviews and find out which games utilize the system's power. wait for MP3, that game looks gorgeous for a "last gen. graphics game." plus it will have awsome gameplay. which is what really matters.

yes they do matter to me, i hate that mostly everybody is saying i bought the wii for gameplay not graphics, its not like your settling with n64 graphics,or gamecube graphics, the wii already shown games that surpassed gamecube visuals, MP3,SSBB, SMG.

To me those graphics are amazing, and the gameplay is great. i am tired of seeing previews of horrendous looking games on the wii and it can do waaaaaay better. For example SVR 08 has ps2 visuals, those graphics are horrible, especially when DOR2 for the gamecube has better visuals whats up with that, the graphics are causing me to wait for the next installment of these games.

they very much matter for me

I think your right in this case. nintendo is (ironicly) the only ones pushing the system's graphical prowess. but other developers are just trying to make a quick buck. development is dragging its ass.

It is kind of annoying knowing the graphics permanently can't look better than even average Xbox games. Knowing it's a machine that will be going for some more years, you do kind of get annoyed knowing the graphics won't get any better.

the Wii doesn't hold up, especially 2-3 years down the road when the 360 developers unlock the true potential of the system.

So here's my question to you. Do the Wii graphics bother you?

hockeyruler12

The graphics don't bother me, I also play PC with an incredibly old gfx card and I really don't care, as long as the frame rate is good. Oh and in 2-3 years, devs will also be making better wii games, many look like GC games when they really shouldn't, look at some Galaxy screenshots for some Wii eye candy, and to see what the Wii is capable of.

I do think graphics are important though and they obviously make games more immersive. Can you really feel the same playing some RPG with blurry trees, people walking like robots, and boxy character animations? It just feels faker, what else can I say...

the bunch of nintendo fanboys that are saying that graphics dont bother them are misinterpretting the whole message about the graphics. What we mean is that we keep getting crapy looking games while we know that the wii can do so much more, for example look at super mario galaxy, now stop being so clueless and ignorant. cause you guys know graphics are important.

u must be stupid and ignorant to say ur all about gameplay when graphics are closely related to gameplay...
for example lets say they made a wii game using atari's graphics, and u didn;t know what was going on, wouldnt that make gameplay bad?
so when u say ur all about gameplay dont bs

If we can get more games to look more like Mario Kart, Galaxy, Prime and Smash then graphics shouldn't be a problem for me at all.

If you think the average Wii game will look better, you're right for thinking that.

If you think games will look tons better then SMG, half way the the 360 and all those other retarded claims then you are an idiot.

The Wii is NOT a hardcore system and the style of games are mostly arcade and party like in which case graphics arn't as noticbly annoying compared to if every game was a hardcore realistic look shooter.

First of all, no the graphics don't bother me. Also, you mentioned that 2-3 years from now the 360's potential will be unlocked, what you have failed to acknowledge is that it will take 2-3 years for the Wii's true graphic potential to be unlocked cuz it really is no secret that gaming companies don't give a rat's a$$ about the Wii's potential at the moment, and are just pumping out crap games right now so they can milk the Wii's unanticipated success for all its worth.

No, not at all, but for First Party games, not at all, but for some 3rd party, ehh, they could've had better. Compared to PS3 and 360.

the graphics are as good as they need to be. Nintendo made the greatest video game system ever with that awsome remote, I think it was useless for playstation and xbox to even make a new system if all they did was make the graphics and stuff better.Course i could be wrong, the might have done other things, but I don't know a whole lot about those systems.But nintendo's wii... it's just awsome.
