Well, actually the power of the Wii is a meaning of fun... While looking always for best graphics and hollywoodian cutscenes, someday, you hold the Wii remote in your hands and you're playing Super Mario Bros Wii. And you have fun. With friends. Alone. You just get that pure fun that brings back yourself to your childhood, when you didn't care about graphics, online, achievements...
Technically, the Wii is really deficient. But it doesn't matter, because it is a fun and appealing console and you'll have better times playing on it with friends than you do on your PS3.
And with the awesome 2010 year the Wii is having, you'll never run out of games.
Thanks for sharing. It is good to see that someone is trying. Never judge on the appearance. The Wii has treasures, and the power of the games doesn't rely in the critics, it relies on your own experience, my friend.
