The only reason the wii sells is because people are cheap. All you wii fans should just go play with that white waggle cock, or the wii-mote, i keep on forgetting how you spell it.

I don't think anyone claims that graphics don't matter. Just that graphics are only one factor. To some it matters much, and to other little... Wii is capable of better graphics than the PS2, and millions of people were satisfied with that.
If the only reason why the wii sells is because people are cheap, then why is the gamecube selling so poorly? It's only $99, but there was only ~1,697 sold last week in America, but ~95,470 Wii systems sold in the same time period. (and the wii number is low, because demand still exceeds supply).
Are the graphics on the wii that much better to make it worth 2.5X the cost, or maybe it's something else? It's obvious it's not price....
Each generation has improved graphics because of minor technological advances. Moore's law, etc... Each generation brings something new, but it's not always graphics that is the deciding factor.
