Haha.... i think i have to postponed my GC thingy first .... gundam.
Cos after seeing the price to play a GC game , im quite tight this month after spending thousands of ringgit to repair my car.

But 100% im getting it beginning next month.
Got the price from kkkoohh already.

Wii! Hi sifu's here...Just got a Wii couple of days back..Wanna to ask are there any significant differences for composite vs component cable thru a LCDTV when playing games?

Yes, and very significant if you ask me (I'm very picky on video quality). And remember to set your Wii to 480p display to fully utilize it. However a 480p is still 4:3, so image will at least suffer a bit when stretched to 16:9. And the quality of the cable also plays a part. Avoid Capdase's one as it has serious shielding problem, while many complains the other 3rd party broken down (I haven't had any problem with it so far) and the official one suppose to be very good (still waiting mine from the mail).

wookie...hmm means that i need to get a component cable for my Wii... I reckon it will be around RM150-180 original from Nintendo?

I got mine for a little more than RM100 from PA, Nintendo official.

i already got mine too (ori component cable)

RM100 from PA

p/s: selling 3rd party component cable :-w

Oh, play-asia.com, online store. I don't think you can find better price for component cables locally

Guys, you know where can I get cheap ori US version games?
I went to sungei wang and they seem to have very little games
Just finished my GH metallica. Waiting for GH 5

Sorry, Noob question.
I'm interested in Nintendo Wii.
But do all the game titles support motion sensor control?
How to play in those first person shooter and Fight Game??

motion control here i assume u don't meant the new motion plus add-on, just basic motion control. then the answer is not all, but most. Only if it make sense. for example if u playing a 2d fighthing game, speed is important, so having motion controls will not help. the keyword here is 'if it make sense, game will support motion control'

fps u just point to the tv, aim and shoot. to move around in the world u use the nunchuck analog stick. for 1st/3rd person fighting games is the same, but u use your remote and/or nunchuck to simulate fighting (implementation is different for different games)

y don't browse in youtube or such to see how various games r played. a video is worth a thousand words

anyone downloaded anything from the WiiWare ? I just bought 2000wii points and i wanted to put it into the SDCard,,possible?

i just downloaded a wiiware a few days ago. but it is not in my sd card. But i think with system update 4.0 you can easily transfer the game to your sd card. That was the main purpose of 4.0 i read.

yessir ramz,

got it...when i download the wiiware it asked me whether to put into console or sd card...hmm..new features frm v4.0

Wii can support 16:9 image output.


So set that with the 480p setting if you have a widescreen TV. Anyway, you can only get 480p output from component cable. Composite cable cannot output in 480p mode.

For me, I'm using a cap badak component cable (black horn brand), picture quite crisp although a bit of blurring when lots of motion. Using 480p 16:9 mode.

Yes, Wii can support 16:9, but the resolution stays the same, 640 x 480, meaning it will have to stretch no matter what.

not 640x480, but 720x480 @60Hz during 16:9 on Wii games

but if gc game, it will stay 640x480...
