Why is a high-def Wii needed?

Wii doesn't need "HD." With a 360 in my house the cult-like obsession with all things Aych Deeeeee makes even less sense as the game experience hasn't changed much and a good portion of the games aren't actually HD.

People saying it's the reason Wii isn't getting support are in denial. Gamecube was a beast compared to PS2 and it still missed out on 3rd parties, so even when Nintendo has that extra power under the hood they were still getting shunned. When developers want to put forth the effort to have their games on the Wii, it happens (Call of Duty). If they can pull it off there's not much reason anyone else can't.

gamecube missed third parties due nintendo being B*tch in the snes/n64 era. not because it was not poweful enough.

i remenber when RE 4 release many nintendo fans label ps2 version crap, even only difference was the textures. i don't see a problem here where it's more than textures but resolution/shaders/physics.

the wii could have been alittle more powerful at least a dual core cpu, more decent gpu, enough to get ports, and considering it userbase it would have gotten the games.
