Actually you brought out one point, which actually turns this weakness as a strength. Since it's easy to market games with graphics, this is where the developement focuses, which eventually leads to disappointments, when the actual gameplay is secondary and people stop buying games since their movies look better anyway and they don't need to suffer shitty gameplay (equaling industry crash).
Basically Wii forces the developers to focus on the game itself, instead of focusing to finishing the graphics, when finalized gameplay gets gamers more happier.

The Wii has a lot of games with terrible graphics AND gameplay, where waggle is tacked on just because developers feel obliged to do it, when in actual fact a simple button press would have been the better choice.

Graphics were good enough last gen they don't need to get any better atleast not for people with a bit of imagination.

Is this set in stone forever then? If Nintendo release the Wii6 many years down the line, you wouldn't be bothered if the graphics are the same as the current Wii? It all sounds like excuses to me. Pointing out a negative of the console you own is a cardinal sin on a message board for a lot of people though.
