Are graphics really that important?

Yep I heard about lots of people complain about the Wii version's graphics and general game complexity of Star Wars. This was one 3rd party game I thought had potential on the Wii as a Light Saber sounded like a good fit for the Wii-mote.

I think it's one of the reasons why 3rd party games often sell relatively slow on the Wii considering its install base. Controls on a PC is usually very limited (often designed with keyboard/mouse control in mind), but buying a PC or a 360/PS3 version often seem more appealing, also due to Wii games looking less appealing and simplified (sacrificed) on the Wii

IMO Star Wars on the PS3/360 feels a little disappointing as well. The graphics are OK, but the gameplay also seems to be merely OK. The game looked more promising in previews.
