Right, the other guys are stuck (for years and years) on, what, another 20% better graphics or whatever...who cares?! Meanwhile, Nintendo has completely re-focused on playability. As if to mock the other consoles, Nintendo has exaggerated the cartoon-like quality of the characters. Granted, the graphics are likely to develop further, once we get past the stage of these "training" games, but honestly, it doesn't matter whether the game characters are super-ultra-realistic or not, if the game is actually fun to play. :::hint-hint::: other guys?

The Wii actually interfaces you, the person, with the game, in a new way. Love it. (But, damn! My arm is really sore!)
