There have been several Wii graphical comparisons with the current-gen consoles. Many have found themselves comparing the Wii with next-generation consoles as well with the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3. However, we all know that the Wii is not anything spectacular graphics-wise, but we still find ourselves comparing it to these all-powerful consoles.
As we all found out in the past few months, the Wii is "basically" the Nintendo Gamecube with slightly increased graphics. So, people have finally realized that comparing the Wii to next-gen isn't going to provide us a sufficient view on the power of the Wii, so someone has taken the time to compile a Wii vs GC graphical comparison picture - GC is on the left, and Wii is on the right.
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

there is a BIG diff. in detail
if you read the article... they also mention that the gc zelda will actually be graphically the same as the wii version... also remember that super smash bros melee was a launch title for the gamecube and as such is quite dated
thing/titles/shots. But I'm sure the Wii has a better display capability that the cube but may take a while before we actually see it.
Should be nice though, eventually.
The Nintendo Wii is more powerful than the Xbox 1, but them screenshots impress me and i have seen PS3 footage and Xbox 360 footage. Is Ninendo hiding the true power of the Wii.
i wish the wii could have more mature games that way it would be more balanced
