OT: Seems like Nintendo not printing money anymore

Better or not is up to you to decide, but it's true Wii is capable of 2 different resolution, 3 if you include 480p as mentioned by PM earlier.

This is the first time I heard of this problem Can someone clarify this?

How to play GC games on Wii with softmod? Just play like normal?

Err.. I'll stop asking cause I'm asking on PaiGe's behalf only I don't have a softmodded Wii

I felt responsible after poisoning her getting some GC games Just wait for PaiGe to ask here lah

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).

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

I sold mine already Not that it gave me any problem, but I have enough cables already

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

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

After further checking I found out most my games all runs at 640 x 480 after 16:9 conversion. And it's also mentioned some games do run on 852 x 480 resolution after conversion, but only RE4 from my games runs on this resolution after 16:9. Just in case anyone wonder, 852 x 480 is native to certain plasma panels as well.

Does GC RE4 come with 16:9 option?

Then the problem is obvious isn't it? If 4:3 games with no 16:9 option sure stretched fat fat on 16:9 panels.. Some GC games have 16:9 option like Eternal Darkness to properly display on 16:9 panels.

But Eternal Darkness allows me to access WS mode from the game option instead of running on P.Scan alone.

Yup, it has 16:9 option But I don't have a proper 16:9 panel now

Found a more comprehensive list here http://www.missingremote.com/images/storie...0%26%20plii.xls. It's on excel sheet

No worry, I'm eager to know as well

That one I'm not too sure why (why the forumer, not why the why?)..

And OT which you might be interested http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Progr..._Scan_PS2_Games. Your Yakuza supports 16:9 but not P.Scan

I'm going to try running some 480p games on GC tonight I have to confess I haven't tried it before since I normally use RGB connection only

Pikacu's telly can do aspect ratio, so 4:3 games still can be played the way it meant to be on 4:3. I think yours also can right why? But only downside, you only get around 25" display on your 32" telly
