which Wii game would you say sports the best graphics? I think that it is pretty obviously Super Mario Galaxy. There isn't another Wii game that looks half as good as this game. Galaxy is proof that the Wii can produce exceptional graphics that rival some 360 titles. Why is this the only Wii game that takes advantage of Wii's power?

Overall, Super Mario Galaxy.

Runners-up: Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Super Smash Bros. Brawl, and Okami (it has some truly beautiful moments...).

I will say Conduit will become the new champ after its release.

From and artistic stand point, Galaxy is an obvious winner, it looks beautifyul, the style and everything and the bright and wonderful colors. From a technical stand point, Conduit looks great, and a little better than galaxy, however it lacks the artistic beauty that galaxy has. Overall I still say Galaxy.

Wow, The Conduit doesn't really impress me at all on those pictures. The weapon textures are pretty poor, and the buildings on the first picture aren't that great as well. But I guess the graphics will be better in the final product.

Super smash bros Brawl has some Great Textures, Also i heard that Conduit has changed alot in terms of Grahpics over the course of development, those early screenshots will look nothing like the final game, the game will Look 2X better in both the Sound and Grahpic Department.

That is hopeful.... SSBB indeed has great graphics too. I'm also very impressed by how smooth the game runs, even when there is a lot going on.

SMG is clearly the winner. If you take nothing else into account, that game is just easier on the eyes than any other Wii game. the Conduit, as far as I've seen have some really bland environment textures, but character models and things liked that looked pretty good. Metriod was no slouch, though. And even Twilight Princess looks great still, even being a GC game.

The Wii's full potential hasn't been shown yet, so I can't crown any game king.

As far as the technical aspect is concerned,Super Mario Galaxy,but I simply adore Prime 3's art work,and Retro also makes really great use of the hardware.

I agree, the people at Retro Studios are really artistic and can make beautiful games.

Well Galaxy is the King right now. I guess people don't make games that come close to rivaling it because it takes a lot of work and time. I think Conduit will either be equal or beat it in the end. Pics do not do it justice.

This is what I think:

Super Mario Galaxy - styIe, technical

Metroid Prime 3: Corruption - styIe, technical

The Conduit - technical

Monster Hunter 3 - styIe, technical, massive size

Muramasa: The Demon Blade styIe

Metroid Prime and Galaxy run at 60fps, the conduit in the other hand runs at 30fps

A couple that no one will post because they were underrated and/or sold badly :) Dewy's Adventure (Technically and artistically a VERY impressive game) de Blob (It may look a tad simple, but if you take into account your paint trail that never seems to disappear (or at least doesn't for very long periods of time), heat distortion, the great water effects and just the general scale of the levels then you'll see it's rather impressive.

Zack and Wiki looked pretty nice

Zack and Wiki

and I thought We Ski did a great job in both art and frame rate, while making you feel like you were on a real ski resort

This might sound stupid, but I really like the visuals of Wario Land: Shake it. SMG is still the graphics king though.

It doesn't sound stupid at all. Wario Land had terrific graphics, they would be even better if it supported 16:9.

all the games i have don't rival 360 or PS3 at all but i did play metroid and it had pretty good graphics.

Why does GH:WT have such bad graphics? they are way worse than the graphics for GH3 on PS2.

Galaxy looks fabulous. :) I think that's the definite winner, though the Conduit is looking good, as well as the new Sonic game being developed.

Nah, I thought it was pretty close too. Although, I personally think Galaxy has better textures and lighting. But Brawl is a REALLY close second. Then there's Metroid Prime 3 which...I personally LOVE the graphics in that game. They push the Wii, they rival both Brawl and Galaxy and they just wow me everytime I play that game. In fact. I might go play it again now :D It's slightly off topic, but I also love that MP3 has a screenshot taker, which I think all games on the Wii should ship with built in :P

Super Mario Galaxy right now, but The Conduit looks good so far.
