i have it hooked up with component cable,widescreen 480p,put zelda in and was very disappointed with graphics,yes i know its not hd like the 360 or ps3,but it looks like a n64 game,is there something i am overlooking?
:lol:! Oh man that made my day..........What tyhe hell do you expect? It's a Wii wes and can only do 480p but in no way looks like N64 games. Except maybe on the virtual console..........

lol have u played any n64 zelda games before... clearly not
It looks sexy on my 40 inch LCD. In fact, almost every wii game looks sexy. Not 360 sexy, but SSX Blur looks so sharp and clean (other than some jaggies).
okay wiis graohics are better than ps2 and x-box you crazy if u thhink they look like n64 games zelda tp for wii had the most bueatiful graphics ive ever seen (excluding 360 and ps3)

it's your tv, i heard wii games don't look good on that type of tv cause it's not meant for it. or something like that
I have played my wii on a 60 inch 1080p tv with the standard cables and it looked great. I have played Rayman, Wii Sports and Zelda on it and they all look good. I don't agree with what you are saying.
It's 420p. What do you expect? It is an upgrade, but compare it to other crap you can hook up on an HDTV, it's disappointing. The games are still playable and fun despite not having the coolest HD resolutions possible.
My god high definiton games are only like a year old and already people are getting all picky. It's like how people say Star Wars episode 1-3 is better than 4-6 because the special effects looked bad.
You put zelda in and was dissapoined? I mean...there's something kinda wrong there. I love my gears of war, but TP is definitely one of the most beautiful games EVER made, imo anyway. Whatever tho, who cares about my opinion, lol...
I think the Wii's inability to support HD, and higher resolutions is ultimately an advantage. This way they didnt make a powerhouse system that costs 400+ dollars, and they can also make stunning graphics if 480p is all they have to live up too. You've heard it from talanted dev studio's yourself, the Wii is like a Gamecube times 2.5, technically that can mean, RE4 times 2 at least, RE: Umbrella Chronicles anyone?
If possible, you should play your Wii on a standard, non-HD TV.
Ironically, it looks better like that.
Keep the component cables, though. Obviously. JayMatthews06
I agree. Kinda, I haven't got an HD TV but have played my Wii on a 15" CRT and a 28" CRT and it looks much better on the 15" Colours are brighter and textures are smoother.
It makes sense comparing it with HD and CRT though as the Wii is a standard definition console. Of course it's gonna look bad on a 50-60 inch HD screen when, even though it can do 480p, it's essentially made for a regualr Television.

I'm sorry but this makes me so pissed off, like seriously. Just because the Wii isn't a 360 or PS3 doesn't mean its games look like a N64!! Not even GC games looked like they were meant for the N64. You are either messed up or your TV is. Do you even know what N64 graphics look like??? Also, what Zelda game did you pop in? Maybe there's a joke in this.
Personally, I believe we all knew this before buying the console that it was not going to support 1080p. Why are people still getting upset about it? I have a friend that has a 60" JVC 1080p, plays his Wii on it, and the first Xbox, and has told me that the Wii doesn't look as bad as he thought it was going to. He's running the components and all, and hasn't complained yet. I think there is a line that needs to be drawn in the video game world. The line that separates realistic from fantasy. Frankly, why would you want your video games to look just like real life? Last time I checked, video games were supposed to be an escape from real life realism. Be thankful people we could easily still be in the Atari 2600 days. E.T. need I say more? For all the fareweather Nintendo fans out there, bashing about the graphics.....go buy an Atari and then complain about the graphics. I'm very satisfied personally; I lived through those days.......games were hell back then!

I bet E.T.'s gameplay kept you coming back though, huh. :)
Does that game actually suck as much as people say it does? I've seen in game vids of it and it does look bad but just how bad is it?
