Wii Not All That Hot?

Now everyone and their moms knew that what the Wii lacked in the graphical department, it would make up for in the innovative department and to a certain extent that does hold true, but recently site bit-tech.net got to spend some quality time with Nintendo's next-gen console and they weren’t as impressed s one may expect.

Here's an excerpt from that article:

What I do want to do is provide a little realism. Too many journalists are giving out the impression that the Wii will provide an unbelievable, unique experience unlike anything you will have ever played before. That the Wii remote allows for completely dynamic gameplay that will revolutionise the gaming world. These facts are half-truths, based most probably on people spending a small amount of time with the console at a booth at one of the big conventions. When you get down to the nitty gritty of the Wii you find something a bit different from the 360 and PS3, but not drastically as you may have thought/hoped.
