Yeah Galford that was basically my point, Wii is similar to DC in that it is next generation system visually in that it will have some nice looking games that don't burn out your eyeballs. Then again like Dreamcast with Xbox/GC/PS2, the PS3/Xbox 360 will be able to output better visuals especially for more realistically designed games. Speaking of specs I wonder how much more powerful the specs would look on paper if neither system was built for HD-TV output?

On a standard TV, the gap will be much less than that from the Dreamcast to Xbox or the best GameCube games.. I'd say it would be more like from PS2 to Xbox for the normal person..

Hmmm not sure about that, but then again it is tough to tell so early on. I still think there will be pretty noticeable gap between games with more realistic visuals than ones that are more "cartoonish". I would like to know if a game like Gears of War could be made by Wii and how much sacrifice would need to be made.
