Why are people so threatened by the Wii?

Yea there's physics and destructible environments and stuff too.  Regardless it's more than "just" graphics, it's basically about enhancing the "realism" of the game.  Now personally I don't care about that but a lot of people find it's more immersive to have the game seem more real, and that's fine.  I prefer the over-the-top style games, kinda like comparing sitcoms to slasher flicks or something.
