Hypothetically, would the Wii be able to have such games, albeit with downgraded graphics of course, without drastically changing the game?

I ask because I read somewhere that COD 5 will be essentially the same game on the Wii as is on the HD consoles. I am thinking how is that going to work.

 

In general Bioshock isn't that much different from System Shock 2, Metal Gear Solid 4 is not that much different from Metal Gear Solid 2 & 3, and Grand Theft Auto 4 is not that much different than Grand Theft Auto 3; all were games that were developed for platforms which were noticeably less powerful than the Wii.

Realistically, you could create similar games on the N64/Nintendo DS if you wanted althought the downgrading in non-graphics related areas would become far more noticeable then.
