How is that ironic? Buying a wii proves you can do a minimilist effort in a developers world and donating massive amount of money is not going to get us there faster overnight. If developers don't have a reason to push there skills there is going to be no reason for a better CPU. I would still prefer to have actual fun while I wait in exchange for entertainment.

You obviously got your dick broke over the highlited text which is why it was darkened out so I wouldn't have to hear wii fans bitch. I don't want a damn flame war as you're making it. Go have fun in the mushroom kingdom if you like, I would just prefer it in a simulated world.

Dude, my dick's fine, I'm just puzzled as to why the Wii gets singled out. Surely all the consoles, handhelds and any PCs not using the latest tech are hurting Utopia or Avalon or whatever it's called.

I think the Wii is actually helping what you want to happen.

Wii->more gamers->more money to developers->better tech->better graphics.

Just think how much money ATI is raking in from Wii sales. More than the PS3 I'm guessing.

I see where you're going with that. that is more logical money based considering the graphics cards in them. However many of the people buying wii are older people who just want a bowling or golfing game. I'm not saying that's everyone but there's a lot. Just like many who bought ps3 for blu-ray. However the hardware requirements don't push games hard. Basicly I' am agreeing with you money wise just not "push" wise.
Not everyone can afford Crysis graphics, and consoles represent the affordable level of attainable graphics. At least they use to. Many people wait for the second best thing as prices drop, while some absolutely must have the bests.

At Least now we're coming closer to a understanding.
