In my group of people...

There were two things that inticed them in this exact order. The "motion" controllers was the first, price made it final.

Most people I know that own a Wii don't have the other consoles because most don't care about "high quality" graphics when it comes to console systems.

They are either young children, "former ******** gamers", "former ******** gamers that prefer computer games" like myself, or older people who don't care about graphics and just think the motion sensing is cool. Those are the people I've run into at this point that own a Wii.

The whole fact of having to take 1 week to learn a controller just to play a game is what made me stop buying after the PS1. PS2 started to get complex in it's controller mechanisms.

The latest game I've been playing as of late is Resident Evil 4. Always turned me off previously, but the game play (with the motion sensing) has made me play this game non-stop. Graphics are moot (in comparison to the graphics leaders) when it comes to gameplay. I think I've actually become more of a "FPS" guy on the Wii. But you won't catch me whatsoever ever playing one on a computer or a console system like the Xbox or PS3.

Graphics are great don't get me wrong, but why not just spend the money I would of spent on a console system like the Xbox and just buy a better video card? I can get the same quality games and usually they are better quality games in my eyes.
