It doesn't appear to be much of an upgrade over the PS2 version, and the Wii is more powerful than a PS2, so I'd say yes. But that's not saying a whole lot - I think my Seiko Digital Sports Watch (tm) could render Katamari's graphics ;)

I've only played the demo of BK, so I haven't seen too much of the game yet. The classic controller has two analog sticks, right? So porting, if it were too be done, might not be too difficult?

It certainly can. There is nothing special about Beautiful Katamari's graphics.

I just finished the game... naturally if you know the series that doesn't mean I'm "done" with the game, just completed it. So I've seen everything and it's only a tad better than the PS2 graphically. The game itself actually takes a step backwards from We Love Katamari. It wasn't at all challenging. I've started playing online, hopefully to compensate for that.

Oh, I went off topic didn't I. The Wii is certainly up for the task. I hope it's a better game, too.
