Where did you get that info? I mean sure graphically wise the wii is not as powerfull as the 360 and PS3 but damn man, from what I gathered the Wii IS more powerfull than the original Xbox, processor wise it's faster (It's a PowerPC which is way faster and more stable than a Pentium 3 at the same speed).
In the graphics department, well we know squat about the Hollywood, but beign made by ATI and considering the Gamecube GPU was fairly powerfull (sure it didnt have shaders but it had an equivalent) and this should be even a tad more powerfull, then well it should be if not twice then at least 1.5 more powerfull than the gamecube, which had good graphics.
Anyway its true the wii will not be a graphics powerhouse (compared to the other consoles), since it is designed around its control, but saying that the wii is weaker graphically than the original XBOX is wrong.
I agree with Eggebrecht, they are beign lazy with the wii, they should at least, i dunno, try to make the games look nice.
