480p and 16:9 formatted games should be nice enough.


Yes.. I still play my Dreamcast Via VGA out and it still looks well nice.. Infact the Pure VGA-out is clearer and brighter than my 360' s..

Does Anyone know if a VGA or Component Cable will be available around the Wii' s Launch?

Earthbound Zero, Earthbound, Earthbound 2, Metroid 2 (color) are coming to the Virtual Console.

There will be new Virtual Console remakes of certain NES and Game Boy games by first and third party developers. Expect to pay a bit more upon release. Online Wi-Fi for Virtual Console games is still a mystery.

Pokemon Battle Revolution for Wii and Pokemon for Nintendo DS will arrive in North America sometime in March/April.

Arcade and Amiga 500 games will join the Virtual Console fold very soon.

Nintendo is contemplating releasing a Wii version of Tetris, Dr. Mario, and Mahjong exclusively through the Virtual Console. These are not ports of Famicom versions but new versions updated beyond their Nintendo DS counterparts.

Nintendo Wii owners will get to buy Virtual Console games, game soundtracks, wall papers, and other physical items (real life posters and toys for example) with Wii Points. Wii Points can be purchased, earned through buying games, donated from friends, and won through Wi-Fi raffles.


these are some rumors from the Wiire.

I like the one about A500 :)

Wii to be released in Australia on the 7th of December? Hell yeah!!!

AUS$400 with a game was in line with my expectations, so i' m gonna start looking for a place to pre order one. Though it may be a tad higher then many expected at least that means a few less people pre ordering which means i have a better chance to pick one up at launch which is alright with me.

BTW i don' t know if you already know but i heard Zelda will be delayed till the 11th of December, not that long but still a delay.

When you say Wii, do you mean a Wii or his " Wii" ?

Yeah, ...Quez, if you' re not using component cables then the Cube doesn' t even offer you progressive scan. I just wanted to know whether my HDTV would f*ck the picture up by doing stupid stuff to the resolution.

Between SD and HD for 360?!

I know.

But Gamecube supports 480p, but only if you have the component cables for it. I just want to know what the TV will do if i select progressive scan, as the TV wouldn' t give me the option to set the resolution, it' d do it automatically.

I' m specifically interested in RE4 (which doesn' t even support " true" progressive scan).

I also want to know what i need to record 720p video. I have a DVD recorder with a HDD but it maxes out at 576p. I want to be able to record 720p game footage.

first of all 720p is not a VGA resolution.

IDIOT

To tell you the truth you haven' t seen 720p - not even once at your home (and I won' t tell you why this is true)

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
