Eh. That game looks about the same as 5-year old PC games... maybe a little better than some late-era XBox games, which is exactly what I would expect on the high-end from the Wii. Nothing spectacular, but certainly better than the shovelware that currently dominates the Wii market.
As a side note, there doesn't appear to be any skinned, animated meshes in that first demo, except for the fish, and maybe the water (although I imagine the water might just use some good shader-esque multi-texturing, multi-pass techniques to get that effect). There's a pretty big difference between rendering animated, skinned geometry, while moving through an environment too large to fit in memory at once (i.e. a game), and rendering a bunch of static stuff in a scene. The demo is neato (for the Wii), but not much moreso than the original XBox demos, really.
