Sup people,

I am sooo sick of hearing people compare the Wii to the PS2! It's shameful and such comparisons should not be made even as a joke. 

The Gamecube had better graphics then the PS2 (that's a fact not an opinion) and the Wii is meant to be twice as powerful as the Gamecube. knowing this it would be nice when the Wii gets to show off its full potential and we can silence the nuggets 

(yes, i'm refering to you people who think the Ps2 is actually better). i believe when the Wii version of RE4 comes out it will silence these 

people. this annoy anyone else?

Yeh its horrible that the wii is getting ps2 ports and cheaply developed games. last gen it was the ps2 that got millions of trash games, so much that it quality games all most got lost in the crowed. looks like this gen the wii will be the console for cheap developers, with ps3 and xbox360 needing high graphics and developement costs most cheap games will be exclusive to the wii and it sucks, developer should put the damn time in. but then again if nintendo didn't want that to happen they should have save guarded some way, they need to demand developers put the effort in, i know myamoto spoke out about this a couple of weeks back. your looking at only 5-6 developers who have the idea to take full advantage of the wii in every way, another 30 developers have the idea to put as little money in and hope to get as much money out despite how they look, some looking really poor all ready.

Being 2x more powerful than the Gamecube doesn't necessarily mean we will see greatly improved textures. There will be improvements, but nothing too spectacular, especially when you compare it to any 360/PS3 game.

Super Mario Galaxy, and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption look awesome. Of course they are both first party Nintendo games. Nintendo seems to be the only developer who fully understands that great games and great graphics tend to go hand and make the world a better place, even on the Wii. And the whole "If you can play a Wii game while complaining about its graphics, you shouldn't own a Wii" excuse is just pathetic. Graphical quality is isn't the most important thing, but it IS important. The Wii has some power under its hood that lazy developers aren't taking advantage of, and they should really get to work on creating better looking, more fun games. Despite the fact that its graphics aren't incredible right now, I am really enjoying my Wii. We are only 5 months in, so perhaps it will get better soon.

I suggest you buy Warioware Smooth Moves if you have friends :P LOL to seriously have a lough and also
an awesome single player game like The Godfather, because it's just great to trow people of buildings and smashing them
against the wall, and when you play these games you really feel the power of the Wiimote

While I believe that we will eventually see the Wii's horsepower, my hope DOES NOT lay with RE4. RE4 will NOT be completely optimized for the Wii, just like Twighlight Princess and other games that were first designed for the gamecube. We will see the Wii's horsepower later this year, when games like Project HAMMER and Metroid 3 launch. Those were designed for the Wii, with every texture, pixel, and angle thought out on the new hardware. RE4 will be like Twilight Princess... a game with movement controls tacked on.

By the looks of things, the most likely game from my perspective would be Metroid Prime 3: Corruption. But the Wii has impressed me enough not to care about the better console and stuff like that.

RE: UC has the best visuals so far, some say it looks like RE: Remake which it does but now in real-time not pre-rendered art. I really hope it isn't on rails but more like Survivior or Dead Aim so I can do a little looking around.

I still haven't seen any pics of Sadness, that black and white game. Any thoughts? I think that it could be quite impressive, graphically.

ye... i really hope they add something to give you some sort of freedom.....rail games dont seem to have much repley value and i want a Resident Evil game i will return to after completing. house of the dead was a great on rails game but was more of an arcade game, however i cant help but have faith in Capcom. After all, these people brought us Street Fighter, MegaMan, Resident evil and devil May cry.....lol shame most of the good people are working on the RE5 game

i think that people are just being impatient...when you invest 250 dollars into something you dont want to wait for it to have better games you want it to pay off now. All those people just want Mario Galaxy and games of that caliber at launch which is not gonna happen you dont see many people who own a ps3 complaining about this because theyre blinded by the graphics. which wii owners dont have the luxury of doing.

I don't think people should worry too much about the Wii graphics. I have total faith that they will progressively get better. All console's graphics are a little rough in the beginning. I'm sure by the time Metriod, Smash Brothers and Mario come out the graphics will be way better. Not to mention the component cables help out a bit.

If you want these comparisions to stop, how bout telling people to not support those ports?  Even better, tell developers to stop porting PS2 games in the first place.

Everybody knows the GC was stronger than the PS2, but knowing that, people should be complaining when the games coming out on the Wii look on par and at times worse than PS2 games.

Normally I would agree that graphics start out rough in the beginning, but considering the Wii is literially based on the GC, and Nintendo, and its fans, claiming it should be easy to develop for, there is no excuse for games looking worse than GC and at times PS2 games.

have you watched the trailer? you clearly see many 3rd person sections which are obviously not cutscenes (i refer to the man with knife in hand kicking a zombie) so i doubt it's all on rails
