Rotten Graphics, is it the Wii's Fault, or Lazy Sloppy Programming?

I've been saying since I joned vgchartz. I believe the wii is 3 times more powerful than the original xbox/gamecube, and 4-6 times more powerful than the ps2. I beleive it is 4-6 times less powerful than the ps360, about the same difference between the ps2 and wii is the wii and hd consoles. Devs are far too lazy. High voltage, and Tecmo/Grasshopper, and nintendo are the only ones seem to try to make good wii graphics.

 I love my Wii and all, but I do think you're overestimating its graphical prowess here. By a lot. That said, it's never been the graphics that bothers me about the Wii (shoot, I still play NES games once in a while). No, the part that concerns me is the reports I've heard that the memory is too low for developers to do things like having advanced AI and the like. Mind you, from all the PC and HD console games I've played, developers don't take advantage of the hardware to give us good AI anyhow, but it's always nice to dream of a game where the computer's strategy doesn't come down to "charge!" in every situation...

That is a crock of sh*t. In the material there is more than one developer that isn't sure what all the memory it has is for. I didn't hear this f**cking whining when the Xbox was such hot sh*t and the Wii is more capable in every way.

I've been a photographer for 36 years and boy the one thing I learned was lousy photographers always blamed their equipment while good ones had equipment that worked fine. I can't help noticing that it's the POS publishers that just can't do it, the good ones do just fine.
