EWWW 480p IS FUCKING GROSS.
The aliasing is out of control. It looks like an upscaled PS2 game :( The Wii's definitely getting traded in after Mario, which will also look lousy due to its low resolution.
I just can't live with this.
Also, demi, you were right: Wii isn't full widescreen. I had to adjust my image with Zack and Wiki because everything was slightly streatched. Now I'll have to fuck with my TVs settings every time I want to play with Wii. Ps3 and 360 both don't have issues with this.
-
Does it have Widescreen issues? Try Prime and Zelda
-
That's why I only play last gen consoles on my 32" CRT.
-
Yeah, that's the one thing I noticed, it has pretty bad aliasing issues.
-
WHY DOES ONLY ZELDA DO FULL WIDESCREEN

WHY DOES ONLY ZELDA DO FULL WIDESCREEN
SMG better have true widescreen i'll be pissed it doesn't
-
Even the text onscreen is blurry. Wii is such fucking garbage.
-
i really wanna play mario all of a sudden -- even though i haven't got time to play the games i want on the consoles i've already got. next time i see a wii i'm afraid i'll buy it. damn it this is exactly how i ended up with a gamecube

It does, thankfully. (But it's just as aliased as Z & W on an HDTV I'm afraid. :x)

Well, Galaxy should end up better than Sunshine, so...
-
I have no problem with it being 480p jagged Gamecube games, but if it's Widescreen, it should be widescreen! All I've got is nothing but lies!
-
Famitsu gave Super Mario Sunshine a 37, and we all know how much of a letdown that was.

This kind of cheating is very common. People noticed the same thing with God of War.

The Wii's garbage image quality at work again.
How could Nintendo have the nerve to cheap out on the quality of its video transmission at the EXACT era where everyone and their cousins is getting bigass 1080p HDTVs? GameCube stuff played on the original units with component cables looks absolutely glorious in comparison.
Sadly, I'm not ever trading mine back in because of Fire Emblem, but for most great Wii games I'll probably wait for a backwards-compatible Wii-2 before really playing them, so that it looks at least remotely decent on an HDTV.
-
You know what it looks like? It looks like when I am playing a game on my monitor that does not support native resolution (which I guess is the case here, actually). It's very blurry looking, and the increased native resolution over the image resolution makes aliasing a major issue. There are pixel steps everywhere, edges of objects are a shimmery mess, and everything else is ridiculously blurry. It's a pity, because I can tell that it's otherwise a nice looking game. Nintendo's shitty technology is making people with quality displays suffer. This is shit. The Wii should have bombed.
-
What happened to your old CRT, TVC?
-
My cat is asleep on it right now. I am thinking of hooking it back up.
Thanks for making me keep one foot in the ghetto, Nintendo!
-
Well I had a 21" Apex TV, fuck if I'm going back to that from my 1080p 37" HD
-
Well, I don't blame it all on Nintendo. There're still a couple of Xbox/PS2 games that I might play some day which is why I didn't throw out the CRT. Sony/MS keep telling us how their next-gen consoles are 1000 times more powerful yet they apparently can't emulate last-gen games in HD.
-
I'm on 50" here, so Wii games probably look a bit worse for me.
Actual game impressions: it's pretty cool so far. I am only ten minutes in, so that could change. The art style is nice and consistent and the game features use of the wiimote that isn't half-assed.
-
I was expecting a gaming impressions, not this TVC.
HD spoiled you my friend.
-
It's pretty cool so far! I am not really past the tutorial levels yet, so I can't really comment on anything aside from how shitty Nintendo's hardware is.

This is a Wii thread

sigh, no matter how good this game is, shit is sent to die.
no marketing and with Mario Galaxy releasing soon, who is gonna buy this anyway.
-
Well, the no marketing is forgivable when it appears that Capcom has sent a whole 10 copies of the game out to stores nationwide!
I am past the tutorial stuff, and this is really diggable. I am sure there are some annoying puzzles here and there, but I think that's a consequence of not only making an environmental puzzle game, but marrying it to motion controls. That said, so far everything has been great.
-
I'll defintely pick this up. Also looking forward to Dog Island and Battalion Wars 2
-
That said, so far everything has been great.
So is Zack and Wiki more fun than R&C? I couldn't find either today.
-
If you can stand it 4:3, you might try playing your Wii that way while still outputting 480P. It's much better(but still not great), really.
-

I haven't played R&C yet. I played the demo, but not very long. It's R&C, I know what it is. The series hasn't eveolved in like 6 iterations. I have no idea why the Sonytards go nuts over a 7.5 when that's probably all it deserves.
-
Nintendo needs an HD wii, or a firmware upgrade that allows it to support HD (if that's even possible), or something.
-
Enough of Nintendo's low resolution garbage. It is R&C time.
-
How do the demo unit Wii's always look SOOOO much better then the stuff I see on my Bravia at home?
How do they do it?
-
The demo unit screens are always small.
-
Is it really not full widescreen?
It's strange how Zelda: TP filled the whole screen (lol GC port) while a lot of recent games can't do it right.
maybe it differ from one TV to another?
-
I don't think I've ever seen a Wii demo'd on a large screen
-

Tell me what you think of it. Just don't spoil the story.

Okay, Mr. AltogetherAndrews :p

Smooth? Andrews?
WHAT A TWIST!

I take great offense to that comment. That's like me comparing you to Sp0rsk.

No mention of gameplay. :punch
Oh wait it's a Wii game, nevermind

I mentioned it later on. Nice reading skillz, CURTIS CRUCUT!

Maybe if I put some stuff in there about what religion celebrities are you would have taken the time to read it!

Don't forget to talk about self empowerment.
"I have a Wii but I hate it, so instead of waiting for someone to help me I decided to give it to Maurice because I'm still upset about what my ancestors did to his"

I find the dichotomy of today's purchases somewhat interesting. We have Zack and Wiki, which offers something of a new experience, but is ass ugly (thanks to Nintendo, Capcom delivered the visuals on their end), and we have Ratchet and Clank, which is the new hotness but has a vagina filled with cobwebs. Zack and Wiki is like the ugly fat chick with "character," and Ratchet and Clank is the hot prom queen with a dictionary's worth of VD.
