LOL! Wow! iPhone game with better graphics than most Wii games...

[Atomheart]

Kind of sad, but this upcoming iPhone game has better graphics than MOST Wii games. A cell phone has a game with better graphics than most games on a dedicated video gaming console.

Had enough time to absorb that. Take a look at these screen shots.

Shrink LoZ:TP down to a screen that small and it would look HD. Seriously. People often forget that screen size really does matter when doing any sort of video. 1080P on a typical 30" screen isn't generally going to look any better than 720P due to the screen size. Same thing applies when you're talking about tiny screens.

It's not just resolution though. Everything about the graphics looks better than most Wii games, including the character models, the level of detail, the 3D modeling, etc.

John Carmack says iPhone is more powerful than a PSP and DS combined


EA says iPhone is more powerful than a DS, but less powerful than a PSP

So why doesn't the DS look awesome?

Beyond all the obvious already mentioned a SCREEN SHOT is going to look as good as the screen it was shot FROM, and the CAMERA that took it, allong with the resolution of the camera etc... I can promise you, that is not a shot taken directly from an iPhone.

Screen shots are some of the most misleading things in the world, especially if you are using them solely to base what game looks better. Unless you hook multiple consoles to the SAME exact TV, and use the SAME exact camera on the SAME exact settings and resolution, there is no way possible for an accurate comparison.

Output the image from an iPhone into my 65" Mitsubishi DLP set, and It wouldn't look any better than a Wii game. I'd bet on it. Somebody already nailed that one, shrink any Wii game down to the iPhone and it will look HD...

The DS is a $170 system, the iPhone is what $800? The DS isn't made to look awesome because the cost would make the system a lot higher than what consumers would spend.
