That "Gamer_Issues" guy is an ignoramus. The Wii is famous for having family-friendly games, not childish games. There's a difference.

Both Fatal Frame 4 and The Conduit will have amazing graphics. Those are my two picks.

Interesting ideas and spot on gameplay are still more important than graphics, especially on Wii.

The wii is not meant for graphics. But High Voltage Software has made the best wii graphics engine so far.

I do hate when people say the Wii isn't meant to have good graphics. Just because the Wii isn't as powerful as a PS3 or 360, doesn't mean that developers can be lazy and create average-looking games. No, they should try their best and create a game that both plays AND looks good.

FFIV has that nice 'eerie' look to it. The Conduit, from the screens, seem to emphasize on the shadows and lighting, pretty detailed as well. Deadly creatures also looks detailed, but not as good as the other two..
