What do you mean not "full" 480p? Also, do you have to tell the game that you are able to do progressive scan/widescreen?

mp8 supporst 480p.... just not full widescreen.... in the menus it goes full widescreen but in game play it goes 4:3 with is total bull.. but the game is still good..

thanks for the input peeps :)

Also you may have to or not. It depends on the game... usually if it detects your Wii is set in 16:9 mode, it will set-up appropiately, but sometimes you may have to go in the menu screen to do so, and the progressive scan is only availible if you have the cables.

Crap associated with MP:3? Um no..it's a very minor annoyance at best.

480p is not a 16:9 signal. 480p is EDTV, which is 4:3.

The bars are there because of design, its not a flaw.

You got to remember, most wii games aren't full 480p. I'm pretty sure zelda was, but both neither scarface or metroid prime 3 were not 480p completely. If you don't believe me on metroid, go to ign.com and look at all the recent previews. They stated it in one of the most recent ones. Though their not 280p *320x280 like older games use* like most ps2 progressivie scan games use.

480p has nothing to do with widescreen. A 480p signal can be 4:3 the 480 part of the 640x480 is the vertitcal size not the horizontal part. Metroid is full 480P, its just not full 16x9 Widescreen. Its close though.

i thought so! when i first played secret rings.. i knew for sure it was not in full 480p... i thouhgt maybe it was line doubling and just saying it was 480p butwhen i cam on some other forums to ask others that have played it in 480p..i just about got flamed for saying it was not truely 480p :/

Line doubling was one of the most annoying 'tricks' developers used last generation and on the wii. If you play re4 on other than a sdtv or a edtv, it looks like utter trash. God of war 1 and 2 used it, BUT in 2 there was a code that actually took away that line doubling and had a full on 480p resolution. Framerate took a hit, but it looked much better. Your tv will never say its lower than 480i/p, but you'll be able to tell *at least on the wii* what it is by hitting the home button. Everything has a different sizing to them depending on the game.

I was about to say the same thing myself. Some(Most)EDTV's are 4:3 and EDTV is 480p. I know some EDTVs are 16:9 widescreen such as the 42" Plasma EDTVs, but most are 4:3.

Agreed. The only way you can associate crap with MP:3 is if you say "this crap is awesome", and i'm still not even sure about that.....

well actually i had this problem on my standard 4:3 tv for a while - white dots in a weird pattern, grey blocks appearing randomly and a kind of "ghosting" when playing zelda. The problem went away by itself, after I had unplugged it for about 10 minutes and change the settings on Wii Connect 24. Since then, I've upgraded my tv to a widescreen plasma, playing 480p, and have had no problems. My guess? A wii connect issue or a over heating issue.

I have the same problem with my Wii, can you tell me what settings have you changed to solve it? I´m in Argentina and Nintendo don´t have office here, so I send it to the service of the market in wich I bought it and they tell me theres no problem with the hardware. Thanks a lot

I have not had a single problem, no blurriness, no greynesss, and sometimes 1" black bars on the sides, but thats all game dependant...

Also, I though Mp3 WAS 480p fully, cause mine looks like it is... i'l have to check the tv settings when i play tonight, it seems pretty smooth to be 480i...
