comparing the graphics between the wii and 360/ps3 is pointless.
the 360/ps3 made games will beat - on just resolution- the wii-

Great graphics does not sell the game. GAMEPLAY sells the game if it has good enough graphics, if it has poor graphics, it might sell decently, but not as well as it could have.

1st. PRICE 250 is a HELL of a lot easier on the pocket than 400 or600 dollars.
wii wins on VALUE.
for most AVERAGE casual players using the wiimote to play game is more fun than using a standard controller.
wii wins with the average casual player on FUN FACTOR.
