There is a race of SD vs HD. If the Wii can keep outselling PS3 and 360 combined until 2009 those HD systems will never reach their full graphical potential. The Wii's graphics will even come closer to the HD systems then they are now because the Wii will get the most optimization. If the Wii owns less than 50% market share until 2009 HD graphic quality can thrive and evolve and will make the Wii look bad even to mainstream customers during the second half of the cycle.
Hardcore gaming is a bubble economy blown up by Microsoft's $7 $6 billion losses.
