I don't know where the flaw is in your reasoning, but what I will say is that the proof is in the eating. IGN head-to-head comparisons make for pretty consistant reading - with the XBOX version looking best and running the most smoothly, followed by the GC and then the PS2. Personally that doesn't bother me - I brought a GC because I like Nintendo's own titles (Mario Sunshine, Smash Bros, Zelda TWW, Mario Kart DD, Metroid Prime) which are not available on other platforms.

It seems ridiculous to argue about performance. Nintendo said from the outset that the Revolution wouldn't compete with other next-gen consoles in terms of performance, and they meant it. If you want a visual fiesta then buy a PS3 or an XBOX 360 and plug it into an HDTV, you are probably not Nintendo's target market.
