Why does Wii games look so bad?

Getting a little too long to directly quote. We've both made our points so not too much more to add. I'll just say first, we had no 3rd party games to look at when the Wii launched? Really? 18 3rd party games were released at launch with another 12 soon following. In addition to that videos of the final builds were availible for at least a month prior to launch. That's how it was possible to ponder why they looked so bad last November.

Other than that the math issue I've already argued before and yes I am in the Electrical and Computer Engineering program at OSU so I am aware of what math CSE majors take (the same as me, actually less since I'm in the Nuclear Engineering and Economics programs as well). I am also well aware of the grades they get in those classes. Anyways, I'll just say that you seem to be grossly overestimating the ability of average workers which I've thus far found to be less than encouraging (as the article about devs struggling with the math further showed).

That's about all that can be said about the issue since it's just an idea that I'm basing on a low view of average workers that has often worked in the past and you have a differring idea based on a higher opinion. Not much possibility of working around that I suspect.
