I have been wowed by the graphics on the Wii twice.   Both in Twilight Princess.

*Spoiler*

 

After you beat Ganon, and Link drives his sword through Ganon's stomach.   Ganon kinda staggers, breathing hard.   It was overall a very impactful scene and I definitely remember it vividly, it looked awesome.

 

*Major spoiler over*

*Minor spoiler*

 

After you beat that guy on the hog thing in the jousting contest on the bridge.   The guy falls into the abyss and it shows Link riding Epona on the center of the bridge.   Epona rears up and Link holds his sword up, the sun setting behind him and the theme music playing.   I was completely blown away by that scene.   I've never seen Link do anything that "dramatic".   It looked totally awesome, and it took me several hours to stop talking about it. :D

*Post over* :P

Red Steel wowed me. But in a bad way... Like  " Wow, I cant believe how bad the graphics are."

Nothing on the Wii, or this generations have I stood there and said WOW in terms of graphics!  The only game this gen that I have said that towards was Gears of War.   Other than that, everything else is not visually stunning to me in a way where my jaw drops.  The thing with me though is I have said WOW to many Wii games from their stories and gameplay.   But I didn't buy a Wii to say WOW over the graphics.

lol....looks at 360 running in 720p....looks at Wii running in 480p....lol.

But seriously the Wii graphics are really bad. Most of my Xbox1 games look better. Even though Gamplay over graphics applies. I still like nice graphics they halp draw me into the world and enjoy the game. And after having the 360 for a year the Wii graphics almost burn my eyes.

Zelda has wowed me in certain places. The game looks amazing at times, but looks average at others. But some parts look realllly good. I played Blur finally for like 5 mins and I was pretty impressed with its graphics as well.

None, because i don't care about graphics. Its the gameplay that wows me. There could be some instances where the graphics look good, but none eye-popping, like the PS3 or 360

Spiderman 3, Dewy's Adventure, Super Mario Galaxy, and MP3 all look great so far. Out of released games I would have to say Sonic, DBZ, Trauma Center, SSX Blur, and Super Paper Mario look great.

Anybody who has spent more than ten minutes with GoW will tell you Wii graphics are lacking from a technical standpoint and to be honest I really haven't seen anything impressive so far from the Wii.  But that's not really why I bought it.  I bought it for the great gameplay which I have tasted and am looking forward to more. ;)

i think developers arent even trying. red steal ran unreal engine 2.5 and we all know it takes a ps3 a 360 or a good pc to run unreal engine 3. also galazy looks amazing and i think developers are putting the bulk of they're work tuning the controls then they forget the graphics and give the wii a bad image (pun :P) i think by christmas we will be seeing graphics a little closer to begining 360 games(like pdz or amped 3) for the majority of games on the wii

Sonic really wowed. That probably takes the cake for wii graphics so far. Especially for the movie scenes they just made me say wow. But for other games the brawl trailer wowed me when i seen the changes everybody has made. Also the SMG trailer wowed me too.

From I've played, SSX Blur and Monkey ball (nice bloom) did. 

Zelda - some places like thilight realm and the town.

Doesn't need much for me to be impressed.

Well Zelda was quite great at some sports, and Red Steel had some nice designing at the last level in the game, but it didn't nearly "wow" me as much as Luigi's Mansion did back in 2001. :)

WOW, I expected zelda to look much better than this. If you haven't owned a system since the snes I could see being wow'd by some of this stuff. Wii sports looks OK for an N64 game.

Red Steel looked awesome. It was just the lighting. Everything looked 360-ish in it's only little Wii way because of it.

Absolutely not, including Twilight Princess.  Take a look at this:

This is for Gamecube.  Nothing on Wii looks remotely close to that.

When i first saw SMG at the first E3 that it appeared, my jaw dropped, and it still has that affect. mario has never looked so good. Red steel did have some nice textures and it did surprise me. When you go up to an elevator door and look at it, you can see all the individual scratches and it looks really good. Sonic has some nice textures also. but as the the "WOW" not really. come on its the wii, thats not what its meant for.

No, because we haven't seen a game that has been truly made for the Wii yet.  The Wii's best game, Zelda: Twilight Princess even started out as a Gamecube game.  Right now we are being bombarded by oportunistic developers selling us last generation games with "Wii Specific" controls.  I'm not excited yet.  I beleive the Wii can and will show us what it really has under the hood once developers get serious, quit trying to make a quick buck off the novelty of the Wii's controls, and develop games that truly push the Wii.

Rebel Strike, Rogue Leader looked just as good and that was a Gamecube LAUNCH game too. Wii has yet to beat the Cube's launch visuals.

Yeah Factor 5 are absulotly fantastic at bringing out a systems full strenth, even from the get go. They did say the thought developers were being very lazy with development on the wii, which I believe is true.

Anyway TP wowed me, but thats because I'm a huge huge zelda fan. Parts of Red steel looked just as good as perfect dark zero IMO.

Red steel wowed me with graphics. The explosions are beautiful. watch as the explosion sends your enemy flying all the way across the room in a hurling ball of fire. Nice!
