Anything higher than 480 = HD.

In that case the European Wii is HD.

 

Technically, yes! Assuming its actually running above 480.

You've been proven wrong about 6 times in this thread yet you still go on with this nonsense? Anything less than 720p is not HD.

Well the standard for gaming has been 480. So yeah, I'm entitled to my opinion.

Well, in my opinion, your opinion is *insert derogative term here*.

HD is a funny term you know. Nothing is official. Apparently anything above 30 lines is HD.

576 is higher than what is commonly known as SD. Therefore it must be HD. Feel free to cry some more, can't change my opinion.

By the way, I know Euro SD is 576. However its 720x576. The HD resolution is 1024x576.

Saying something over and over again doesn't make it true. HD is a *defined standard* and only includes three signal types: 720p, 1080i and 1080p, in varying frequencies (24, 25, 30, 50, and 60hz, I believe).

So stop flooding the thread with things that aren't true.

High definition is only defined as higher than standard. Not an exact resolution.

This table illustrates total horizontal and vertical pixel resolution via box size. It does not accurately reflect the screen or pixel shape (aspect ratio) of these formats, which is either 4:3, or 16:9.

EDTV is 720x576. But Final Fantasy XIII is running at 1024x576.

Like I said, HD is anything above the standard. 720 and 1080 are just common resolutions. You can also find HDTVs that are 768.
