My Take On Nintendo And why I Sat this Generation Out

I'll admit that the one (minor) disappointment of my first experience with the Wii was the relatively underwhelming visuals of Wii Sports and other games like Excite Truck and Zelda: TP that were basically missing that generational graphics "wow" factor that usually comes with the purchase of a brand spanking new video game console.

True, the Wii's launch library didn't blow me away the same way that titles like F-Zero and Mario World on the SNES, Mario 64 and Waverace on the N64, and Rogue Leader and Melee on the GC did when I first got to experience them, but there was just as much magic in swinging the Wiimote to play baseball and golf, and using the Wiimote-Nunchuk combo in masterpieces like TP, Prime 3 and Galaxy that no other system could replicate.

In short... great graphics mean jack squat without great gameplay... even if said graphics are nearly 2 generations old

It worked for Heavy Rain.
