well if you guys are going to compare the wii graphics to something, look at twilight princess, which probably has the best graphics on the system currently. well, that's a gamecube game simply ported over to the wii, and since the wii is almost twice as powerful as the gamecube, it can look a fair amount better than that, and i'm perfectly content with that.
zelda by any means doesnt look "bad", my only complaint would be the aliasing, but that will be fixed in future wii versions.

yep... even my 76 year old grandfather who is a doctor and thinks "video games make you lazy and send you to hell" was even playing on the one I brought up there for Christmas. In fact during christmas lunch instead of eating lunch he was sitting there reading the Wii sports manual trying to get an edge for when play resumed.

The problem with the dreamcast is that no one bought it. Wii might not have much developer support now but they will if they continue to sell the system like this.

You say that like it's a bad thing.
Let's put it this way: We all know that the Kreans are absolutely nuts when it comes to RPGs. Do you think that the 360 is going to sell there? Not likely. They will all probably buy PS3s because Sony sells RPGs. As far as economics go, many people want their money's worth; if they pay $60 for a game, they want to play it for 40 to 60 hours. If the game can be beat in 10 hours then they might as well rent it. So let's say that you rent a game from your local video store. You can play 5 hours a night and 12 hours a day on weekends. That isn't enough time to finish an RPG. Yes, I've played some games in 18 hour stretches... But then I knew some guys who played FF until 3 in the morning, knowing full well that they had to leave for work at 6am. Crazy mofos. Now I take the opposite position - play it as slowly as I can to get the most out of it.
btw, I hate any RPG that has some little girl shrieking in it. I also hate any RPG that has some snot nosed teenager going through angst. No thanks, turn it off, take it back.

Final Fantasy (12 titles)
Dark Cloud, Dark Cloud 2 (action rpg)
Dragon Quest 8 (action rpg)
King of Hearts, King of Hearts 2 (action rpg)
Shadow Hearts (3 different titles)
You also have your Suikodens, Xenosagas, Phantasy Star Universe, your fighting RPGs (Devil May Cry (3 different titles), the Samurai type of games, etc.), Lord of the Rings, Bard's Tales, all the stargedy RPGs, Marvel (X-Men) and DC (League of Super Heroes) RPG fighting games, Tensui 'something other' RPGs (3 titles), etc.
I thought that Xenosaga III was too constricted, you ended up running through corridors. But there are people who absolutely love the series. I rented some RPG and there was this little Japanese girl who would always yell out something like, "Yeah! We did it!" and it became very aggreviating after two or three fights. I fired Phantsy Star Universe and basically took it back the next day.
But on the XB360 you basically have abaout 20 RPGs. I have only seen 2, "Jade" something or other (NOT JAde's Caccoon, which is a PS2 rpg) and Fable 2 (???, Fable mnay only be an Xbox title, Fable 2 may be an XB360 title).
So, yes, there are more to RPGs than the Game Cubes Final Fantasy Chronicles type of games where the characters move in groups, where the camera angle is 45 degrees. Open ended RPGs play more like Zelda - free roaming. Breath of Fire (PS2) while looking nice is not my kind of game because it is endless corridors that all look the same. Some people like Zelda because there are no ramdom battles every 5 feet and there is no re-spawning. So you can explore to your contentment, like you would in a Tomb Raider game. The A.I. is not so smart that they will chase you through two or three room or 2 levels. So you can relax a little more.
