I know that graphics are not the most important thing, but really how did some people played those games? O_O

I guess you're to young to remember N64, PS1, 3D0, Saturn & 32x.

I have played lots of PS1 games, by the time those games were released, and not now lots of years later.    So to have games that looked like almost PS1 games in 2006 is just ridiculous.

Well, there are always games behind the curve.  That Wii GT game that looks a bit like GT on PS1 runs at 4 times the resolution, has more geometry & newer texture filtering.  The flat look was because of toon shading, I also think it ran at 60fps, but it was a Cube port from Japan anyways so you need to also remember that.

It bugs me when people overstate how bad the Wii looked.  That said I approve of this thread for humors sake.

Yeah but if someone wants to play PS1,N64 etc games he just plays them and don't buys a NEXTGEN Console(at that time) for that.I mean i played Syphon Filter a few days ago and i nearly started to puke but i don't expect it to look like a game from 2005 on a console from 2005.I expect a bad looking PS1 Action Game on an old console.
I can be wrong but didn't the 360 get released 1 year before the Wii?
What the heck?On one side you have decent looking 3rd Party party games where you actually could justify the switch over to that console while on the other side you have a game that looks worse than/on par with Gran Turismo 1 from the PS1.
And it looks like Nintendo is doing the same mistake again  while of course Last Gen low budget games actually don't look like PS1 games this time(at least they shouldn't)
