I believe the Wiis graphics will be ouitdated well before 2011. Once HDTV begins to be the norm which should be around 2009 in the US at least the wii will defenetly be outdated. For me the wii is already outdated, it is yet to have a game that looks as good as God of War 2, and will never have any games that look as good as the worst 360 PS3 games. Once games like killzone, Halo, GT5, Ratchet, Uncharted, and Fable 2 come out the wii will start to be another gamecube. Don't get me wrong I think the wii is awsome and have spent a lot of hours playing wii sports and will spend a lot of time on smash bros and galaxy, but games like FFXIII, Uncharted, GT5, Killzone, Lair, Heveanly Swoard, White Knight Story, The Getaway, 8 Days, Home, Little Big Planet, MGS4, Socom, God of War, Ratchet and Clank, Afrika, Halo 3, Forza 2, Fable 2, and many others will take up the major majority of my time. Motion is fun but due to the limited power of the wii it can only go so far, and once that happens it can only go down hill.
The Wii is roughly twice as powerful as a PS2. Expect the graphics to get better over time. It's already looking nice for Medal of Honor: Vanguard and Sonic. I know it'll never be as good as the 360/PS3, but the Wii isn't as weak as you make it out to be.
Unfortunately, it just does NOT have the CPU to process the 1:1 movement everyone wants...
