Forums - Nintendo - Problem with Wii and Hd-tv..

Simulacrum on 15 March 2009

While playing on my Hd-tv on Wii, graphics look horrible.

I'm now playing Res 4 wii edition which looks like Res 3..

Does any component cable,like one I have on ps3, work on wii?So then I could use 480p...

Move 50 meters away from the screen ? Switch to a normal TV ?

Do you want more of my brilliant advices ?

well, since you were playing a PS3 before, it'll take a short while to get used to the graphics difference. Also, the bigger the TV, the worse the Wii looks unless you move father away.

Personally, I think it looks fine on my 32" and my parents 54" tv's, however if I play right after playing on my PS3, it makes me think it looks pretty bad.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

definetly buy the cables

the wii doesnt look amazing in hd, but it does look better

i love the vc with component, cus its the best possible way to view those games.

with component its at least as good as old xbox



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

On topic - have you switched the output option to the one for HDTVs in the menu?
