The GameCube already had better graphics than the PS2 or Xbox, so anyone can naturally understand that the more-powerful Wii will have far better graphics still. By the way, taking screenshots from Far Cry proves nothing, as the developers have already been drawing fire for having "<a href="http://wii.ign.com/articles/744/744521p1.html" target="_blank">debateable</a>" visuals. Now, post a screenshot of Zelda: Twilight Princess running in 480p, to any Xbox game, and that'll pretty well crush the ridiculous notion that Wii games look no different than current-gen games. Nice try though.  <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" /> The original poster also said he's a casual gamer, which means (as I've said before) that there's more to consider than just graphics - there's actual gameplay. So even without the graphics issue (re: Wii titles still look better than current-gen titles), the more-important issue of gameplay still leaves Wii as the winner.A quick way to compare is to play a current-gen RPG like FFXII, which is relatively complex to play, and imagine that on a machine with even more power and buttons. Hardcore games isn't what the OP asked about.</blockquote>
