To build upon what Rol said, there are some reviewers who mark down games if they aren't HD or wide screen.

Since the Wii games are not HD or wide screeen by definition, Wii games often start with a one-point deduction compared to those of PS3 and 360.

 I'm sorry but I really don't agree with the sentiment that reviewers are biased against the Wii.  As far as I can tell from most reviews i've read or watched they take into account the Wii's technical capabilities and don't mark it down specifically because it's on the Wii.  It won't get marked down for not being 720p since Wii can't do that.  Marking it down for not supporting widescreen is a valid point I would put forth.  Widescreen is something the Wii can infact do and most titles that actually put forth the effort to have decent presentaion would allow for widescreen.  My Wii collection is very limited, especially compared to some, but all the Wii games I have come with widescreen support.  

If you know of any reviews you consider to have evidence where lack of HD support lowered the score on a Wii title please let me know so I don't argue this next time...

Also an interesting point to note that just last week somebody else was claiming all PS3/360 titles were being judged more harshly.  If PS3/360 tiltes are judged more harshly and so are Wii titles aren't we all even again?
