Comparing a Wii version of the game in a form that no one will ever play it in v. the actual 360 version seems kinda pointless :S

Not really. ITs a good indication of what we can expect from the next Nintendo system and backwards compatibility.

I mean, yes wii can't do anything higher than 480p and this isn't something most gamers can do today. However, down the road when the next system is out and is capable of outputting higher resolution, most of wii's old catalog of games will look great.  There are some wii games like Mario Gallaxy and Metroid Prime 3 which look better then a lot of PS360 games, once taken to the same resolution.

backward compatibility?... could be tricky given the control system? no?

Im sure there are workarounds nintendo can apply to make sure the games are playable with whatever control scheme they go with for the next console. Using that emulator I am able to map a 360 controller as my Wii mote and it works great most of the time...so Im sure  they can figure it out.

It would be a wasted opportunity for Nintendo in the future not to give all Wii games (even Gamecune ones) an HD treatment.
