"I know the Wii can push better graphics then this."

But that pretends that is the norm on the Wii, not the exception. And it's a third year game on the system, done by a team that just did a direct port before.

We won't get games pushing the Wii until a couple of years from now, same as any system in that relative time.

 

That's true, but it still doesn't change the fact that a significant number of Wii games don't look as good as last generation's gamecube, PS2 and Xbox games. There are noteable exceptions of course, but a lot of devs don't seem to put enough resources behind their Wii projects.

That said, Mario Galaxy was more gorgeous than anything I saw last generation ... maybe excluding Wind Waker.

Usually Nintendo's the one to really push their own hardware. I'd like to see a new Nintendo project that really ups the ante. Wii Fit and Wii Music certainly fulfill a specific purpose, but their development was probably demanding in a different way. I want to see Nintendo make something new in the spirit of Galaxy.

 

Not excusing those. I just think it's BS that this game was somehow obligated to push the Wii, just because they think they know the system better than the damn developers.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
