As far as I know, all the games run natively at 480p so long as you have the component cables to output at that resolution. Regardless, the games will never look all that great on an HDTV since they generally run at 720p or 1080p, etc......

Here is a list of progressive scan Wii games.  I must also stress that the Wii setting, the component cables, and the TV are largely what makes a game displayed with a progressive scan.  The code for progressive scanning is included in most games these days.

Do you have component cables? Have you changed the console setting from 480i to 480p? And what type of tv do you have?

Plenty of games for the Wii support 480p. Unfortunately, less support 16:9, but either way, most games support 480p. Do you have component cables for your HDTV? Do you have progressive-scan enabled in the Wii's browser?

Agreed. But hey, a muddy texture is still a muddy texture rather it is drawn interlaced or progressive.

Ah, I asked too late. Either way, Red Steel looks bad because Red Steel is not a great looking game. How does Zelda look?

with what? if you have a big hd tv.. Wii games just don't look that good. progressive scan and component cables will make it look a little better, but mostly in color and clearity. jaggies will be even more appearant... Maybe some games in the future will have better Anti aliassing. i HOPE.

AntiAliasing or Ansiostrophic Filtering are features we would probably never see for a very long time in consoles.

Many console games use anti-aliasing.
