It may be true that sony and microsoft are releasing these well after the wii has launched, but it will be the first time that a consumer gets to experience a motion sensing based game in hd using the graphical prowess of the ps3/360, and while Im no graphic whore by any means, gameplay always wins out over looks any day, it will be interesting to see how this turns out and what kind of games they can come out with, im just saying that if something like zelda were made for the ps3/360, Id shit my pants. I know that cant happen, but a game of that calibur that we can only experience on the wii would be epic.

Still stuck in 2005 eh?
Graphical prowess means bupkus. If it meant something Nintendo would not be the market champ worldwide today.
Wii & DS destroyed that argument forever. "The time when horsepower alone made an important difference is over." Satoru Iwata, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nintendo Company, Limited, at the 2004 Electronic Entertainment Expo.
In Japan, the leading systems are the handhelds. Handhelds are ALWAYS graphically behind the home consoles. In Japan, the PSP is doing better than the PS3. In Japan, the DS is doing better than the PSP. In Japan, the Wii is doing better than the PS3.
In early 1980s United States, Atari 2600 did better than the Mattel Intellivision. In early 2000s United States, the PS2 did better than the XBox.
When does it sink in? How many more records will the Wii & DS have to break before you understand?
HD is dead. NXE killed it. Natal killed it. Arc killed it. Even the proponents of the HD systems don't believe in that market philosophy anymore. They're either losing too much money or stagnating too much to hold to that mentality. Both Microsoft & Sony left HD to die... ...they did so because the market dictated that it be so.
Neither Natal nor Arc will stop Nintendo's Revolution. They are only converts to this industry shift Nintendo initiated. This is Nintendo's house. And sooner or later the competitors & their cohorts will have their backs broken when the Ol' School Revolution is finished. This is the last year for this stubborn resistance. In the end, they will concede.
The 8th gen will be unlike any generation we have ever seen before it. It will not be a power race. It will be an innovation race. But that generation is long off from here. And you will not see it until the others finally give up this lust for horsepower.
When it's all said & done, the others will admit Nintendo's vision was the correct one all along. John Lucas

The enemy may shatter our bodies... but they cannot break our spirit.
Even now, they advance on our motion controls to seize by force, what they cannot claim by right. They cannot imagine what awaits them.
We will SMITE Sony and Mircrosoft from our skies!
For they sweep over our lands like the sands of winter.
Never again will we bow before them.
Never again endure their oppression.
Never again endure their tyranny.
We will strike...
without warning
and without mercy.
Fighting as one hand,
one heart,
one soul.
We will SHATTER their dreams,
and HAUNT their nightmares.
Drenching our ancestors' grave with their blood!
And as our last breath tears at their lungs,
as we rise again from the ruins of our cities...
-pause-
Iwata: They will know... Motion Controls... belongs to Nintendo.
