Forums - Nintendo - Gamecube VS Wii images

Warlord_ on 16 August 2007

I would like to know if any of you guys have or know where i can find screenshots that show GC/wii images side by side.  I want to see the difference, thx.

Not to fan the flames on this, but such comparisons are generally useless since many first generation Wii games are direct ports from the GameCube, PS2, or PSP.  So most titles are going to look fairly alike at this stage.  (Heck, some rushed Wii games look worse than first generation GameCube games!)

A quick search with Google lead me to these two articles:

Amazing what you can do with Google.  I wish everyone knew how to use it... :P

Pretty hard to compare, as no one has developed the same game, at the same time - for both consoles.

I imagine if you look at a game like Pokemon Battle Revolution (GC vrs Wii) you might get a good comparison?

(Metroid 2 vrs MP3 might also work).

(Wii)

(GC)

Well, there is this one game -- it's pretty obscure, you probably haven't heard of it . . .

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I think you know what he meant.  TP was not built from the ground up for the Wii, it was ported, so it looks exactly the same as the Gamecube version.

MP2 vs. MP3 would work if you could actually find good screenshots of EITHER game.

I think your best bet is to compare Smash Bros. Melee to Smash Bros. Brawl.  In fact, I think we had a thread dedicated to this.

Mario Sunshine vs. Galaxy would work, too.

Mario sunshine looks very good for a GC game, but mario galaxy looks slightly better.

It's hard to find good screenshots for Wii games, most of them look like this:

 

Like they were taken with a cell phone.

Nice trolling.

Not even comparable

 

If you want comparison between the same games developed on both consoles, those are hard to come by because most of the time the developers just ported the GC version to the Wii, but I'll grab a few for you.  Brb.

^ That comparison between the links left me like... WOW O_O

Leo wasn't trolling, he just saw the pics posted by Steve.
