So, of the 170+ million people who owned a previous generation console every gamer who is heavily motivated by technically advanced graphics owned a high end PC or XBox 360 in 2006? I don't think so ...

From what I remember, a lot of PS2 gamers bought a Wii when they found out the PS3 was $600 even though they were highly interested in advanced graphics. I suspect they believed that, since the Wii was more powerful than the Gamecube and the Gamecube was more powerful than the PS2, there would be a nice graphical jump from 1st generation Wii games to games down the road; and when these games didn't arrive and the PS3/XBox 360 dropped in price, they left the Wii for other systems.

Games like The Legend of Zelda: Twiligh Princess, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, and Resident Evil 4 showed the promise of the Wiimote and Nunchuck but few developers followed the lead set by these games; and for gamers looking for visually impressive games, the average third party PoS that looked worse than Dreamcast games was not cutting it.

If they were what you originally said, graphic whores, obviously they were playing on devices which offered good graphics. I really don't give crap about that, I just wanted to know if there was a wii game which could be considered a good game for a graphics whore. You have showed no games which are even close to level of graphical fidelity which 2006 game gears of war showed.

How does tp/smg use motion controls? I know that RE4 has a lightgun or something like that.
