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

I am not bragging when I say this...but I own a 58 inch plasma and Wii gets played through component cables.

I see how someone with a smaller CRT TV may think Wii can compete with the ps360 but when everything is maxed out on a big screen like that...one can see Wii has more in common with gamecube/xbox then ps360.

As a matter of fact, to me Ninja gaiden on the xbox still looks better than any wii game I've ever seen including nintendos lineup. And original xbox did 720p in a few games (mortal kombat armageddon...few others)...wii has yet to do that. So I amm not sure programmers are to blame 100% here...

Those games also probably loss out on other things to compensate for the higher resolution. A 15 year old pc could play ES:Daggerfall at 720p. That doesn't mean it will look nice. You also said ninja gaiden looks better when upscaled in the other thread. I said it looks about equivalent to the best wii graphics. The wii only had a year anyway. I'm pretty sure the graphics will improve alot especially since nobody really pushed the wii to it's limits yet.

 

I agree that it will only get better for the wii. However, related to this topic...Wii is not really handing out its programmers an easy ride to visual bliss. They will have to squeeze and squeeze some more...

 Well they aren't even pushing.They are porting low quality ps2 games to the wii. There are ps2 games that have far better graphics than the wii ports, and they're are wii exclusives that have far better graphics too. Grapy wants developers to make the standard for graphics at least metroid prime 3 or mario galaxy level, but they are too lazy too do it. Not even those games seemed to push the wii seeing as they are running at 60fps with no drops.
