720p game on wii, I'll believe it when I see it, most likely it will just end up being the typical 480p which the wii can certainly do.
The original xbox had a few 720p games. It may be possible....

 


It may be possible, but I'm puzzled as to why it's worthwhile. Jacking up the res to 720 is going to mean sacrifices to other visual attributes, like framerate or geometry complexity. Why increase resolution and not improve the visuals at 480p?


Imo the Wii is powerful enough to do 720p without sacrificing anything. People really underestimates the wii power. Just because it gets all of these ps2 ports that look really bad doesn't mean the wii can't do anything graphically amazing. The framerate won't be hindered if they develop it right. Even if the framerate is hindered we don't need 60fps for every game. I would be happy with a 40 or even a 30. The wii could produce amazing graphics its just developers are too lazy. 720p would at most push the wii more to its limits. Saying that this would cause obstructions to the geometry and framerate is highly underestimating the wiis power. This would push the wii a alot but not enought to cause significant disability in the other graphical properties.
