Well, if it encourages people to get a Wii rather than a PS3 or 360 then it IS cutting their power use, hence carbon emissions- so it's doing all that environmental stuff.
The lowered energy requirements makes a minute- yet measurable- difference to oil consumption, meaning that there's less pressure to get more oil meaning a very small reduction in the chance /ferocity of wars, so aiding world peace.
It's even got Guitar Hero, so could inspire the same arm-twirling reverence as the Wyld Stallyns.
