Has Nintendo's Efforts to Entice Third Parties Worked Against It?

Some textures may actually need to be scaled down a little for GC. The assets are way higher quality than 480p needs, which has been shown in Dolphin uprendering... is Nintendo prepping early for "Wii HD"? ;)

1. You wrote "as is", which means everything the same.

2. Or just Nintendo is truly pusing the Wii with this game, and some future games.

Geometry or effects don't look out of place for GameCube stuff.  When I said "as is", I didn't mean literally run the same code, just that it could be approximated and would look and run basically identical.  It pretty obviously isn't pushing Wii (unlike Galaxy, which looks better than GameCube).

Specs aren't about obvious. You have to take the whole picture into account. If someone didn't think GTA was about streaming entire areas, they would think those were not pushing the systems and that Rockstar was doing a lazy job.
