Wow at first I was like WTF happened to the graphics but if its Wii that explains it.

I actually think the graphics arent that bad for the Wii. Most Wii owners know what to expect out of the system so they're not worried about the graphics anyway, it's all about gameplay for the Wii. I have a 360 and a Wii, and I will be purchasing 2k8 for both systems. The gameplay for the Wii should be fun, especially home run derby.

I completely agree...I have both systems as well...it's a given you don't buy the Wii for the graphics...I'm looking forward to trying out the controls...my question is though, would lineups/rosters be updated for the Wii? Santana on the Twins still?

I hope they had it set on an easy level though because on the second video he made contact on every swing but one...

I heard that there will be no roster updates. That is the only major drawback. It doesn't matter to me though, I'll be doing a fantasy draft in the franchise mode for the Wii.

Looking a little hazy in the Metrodome. They need to stop smokin' in there! It reminded me of the old days before the indoor smoke laws.

Funny because in the second video John say's, "Give the man a cigar."

True, but I think folks would like to enjoy an updated game, and utilize the innovative controls.

I understand that the average "Wii gamer" probably does not care about roster updates, etc but it's unfortunate that such an innovative product cannot be fully enjoyed by hardcore gamers at the same time...

I agree...maybe it's because I have a Wii so I've seen what "good" and "bad" Wii graphics look like...

How the hell do highfives and celebration make it into the Wii version, but not any other version?
