I always like to see Nintendo do well (and they are doing very well), but it seems like that the Wii is pushing the gaming industry into a casual zone. The Wiimote, Wii Fit and all that good stuff was innovative and unique, but I'm a graphics and gameplay whore (it might be just me, but I don't want to see last gens graphics, physics, etc., this gen), I want developers to push graphics and physics to the limit with each game they create. The success of the Wii does not really give developers an incentive to push gaming capabilities to the limit, because mainly the console can't and because developers know they can make a profit off of a half ass game that has a good gimmick and hype behind it.

It's good to see Halo 3, Gears, CoD 4 and GTA 4 do well financially, I wish MGS 4, Gears 2, Spore, Resistance 2, Little Big Planet, Too Human, etc., the same success, so gaming evolution can continue and not stay stagnent for the casual market.
