LOL, let the devs worry about rendering grass, sheesh, you really think about stuff like that when you play?
Their JOB is to the entertain you. It's the reason why they're taking your money from you.
I'll tell ya what, when Wii 2 comes if you feel the SD Wii 1 was better, you can post "told ya so" all you want to me, but I doubt that post will ever happen.
Just like no Nintendo fan ever complained about optical discs ... once Nintendo embraced it. Or online play ... once Nintendo begrudingly allowed it. It'll be the same deal with HD. Complain that it's too expensive or doesn't work for whatever reason for 5 years and then shut up after 5 minutes of actually seeing it in action with a Nintendo logo slapped on it.
Even Nintendo has never said anything really bad about HD themselves, this is something really that a vocal minority has chosen to really make a big fuss over nothing about. Just a few days ago Mr. Miyamoto stated HD wouldn't help a game like Wii Fit, but it would very much help a game like Pikmin.

This is a slam dunk to Nintendo fanatics. I too remember the days when the Big N spon feed me bullshit about optical disk consoles being a horrible idea- Only to breath a sigh of relief when they dumped the carts by the next gen.
And again history repeats itself. But the excuses and justifications only thinly veil the feeling that Nintendo missed the boat. Again.

There's nothing to slam dunk. Most Nintendo fans know the next system is going HD, so soundwave made a counterpoint to a false point.

Actually my point was that those Nintendo fans who decry HD today, will be riding that gravy train pretty soon once they get a look at major Nintendo I.P. up and running at HD resolution.
I wouldn't say Nintendo "missed the boat" regarding the past though as they've pretty soundly kicked Sony and Microsoft's ass this generation. Now its more about what comes next, or maybe more specifically than "what" ... "when".
