To be perfectly honest with you, as an exclusive owner of the Wii (only) with 9 or so games... i can definitivly say that a bunch of the games are kinda gimmicky... japanesy... or lame-ish ports. I don care, after playing Zelda, MOH, Tiger Woods, Rayman and Wii sports.... you know the console is good... its just the devlopers with rush-ware games that suck (for now).

However, if your a real serious gamer who really has a bug for top graphics (HD) and you own a ps3/360 with a HDTV... your GOING TO NOTICE THE DIFFERENCE.... the majority of people dont have HD tv sets anyway... so when a site like 1up chock-full of self-proclaimed video game zealots gives a harsh review to Wii games, you can fairly well bet that they A: are still hung up on 1080p BS, and B: resent the Wii's "less-than" approach being succesfull.

If you spent 400-600$ on a console, only to see it beaten by a 200$ one with lower "specs"... youd probably be annoyed and a little resentfull too.

 Now, even more importantly... when it comes to sports games.... the TV counts... by far, the predominent purchasers of HDTV and big Screens are sports enthusiasts. Watching the game on a big screen TV is so cliche its almost a rule. Which means there is a huge segment of those gamers for whom the quality of graphics IS very important.... in fact game-play has largly remained unchanged in sports games as the only factors worth improving when emulating real teams and sports is the control and the look.

The Wii trumps on control, but i dont think most gamers would say the margin huge enough to offset the visual trump of the 360/ps3.

Tiger Woods and Wii Sports are the Shit thogh.
