The Wii cartoon style is full of fail.

As much I would love controlling a proton pack with a Wiimote, that is just insulting compared to the HD versions.

I actually have the opposite reaction. The Wii can't do photorealistic, not compared to the HD systems, so it's better to go with a different art style. And I like this one: it reminds me of the old cartoon.

Not too surprising, though, since Red Fly is essentially a studio of artists first. Hoepfully the gameplay will be up to snuff on that version.

 

 Honestly I prefer the way the Wii version looks. I really do not like photo-realistic graphics. I don't want hyper realistic experiences. I rather a goofy off the wall game. I want a game that makes me fall in love with a new world, rather than seeing a brown version of the real one. Sadly most photo-realistic games seem to forget there are colors out there other than brown and grey in my experience.

Walk outside and look around you. Chances are, most things are brown or grey. Imagine a city of rubble, a place where many modern games are placed. It's a terribly grey and brown place.

I don't hold the color palette against developers, I hold their lack of imagination and their apparent lack of progress in the ability to make lighting engines that don't identify 50% of your surroundings as "0/0/0 RGB" in contempt, not their attempts at reality in the places they do portray.
