Its irrelevant - graphics are now good enough. Its time to explore new forms of games - be it through networking, multiplayer, control systems.. or something else.
Not on Wii. Platform is poor but not as poor as the graphics devs provide on it. I think it's important to be aware this generation will be the longest reigning ever. Costs are extremely high, games have few million budget. I don't think Microsoft or Sony will hit with new hardware before 2015. This battle may last even more than 10 years. Xbox360 and PS3 have a lot of power in reserves (especially PS3), Wii is poor right now, so I think it will not win in long term because there is nothing more than innovation control system. It will not be "new" for all these years. Nintendo wants non-gamers but 5 year period is enough to make them gamers. After year or two of playing in this silly world they will want something more complex. That's the way it works. I've started with Giana Sisters and Commando. PS2 will not be dethroned.
