Gaming Best Looking Wii Games A Celebratory Thread

[Chary]

I second the notion of Sonic Colors. Some of those levels were beautiful.

I say Sonic Colors is one of the best looking Wii games. Dat starlight carnival

HELL YES! I totally agree!



Sega was just showing off when they made this level. I loved how the walking path would "pixelate away" as you moved forward. It was such a cool effect!

I nominate Metroid Prime and Metroid Prime 3: Corruption.

Prime 1 is a GameCube game just ported to Wii in the trilogy version

No More Heroes?

More styles than actual mind-blowing textures or whatever, but still.

No Skyward Sword? That game's gorgeous. From the animations to the lighting to the level of detail, it's awesome.

Excitebots

Top screenshot for excitebots looks suspiciously "dolphinized"

However, I always thought FZero GX was a great looking title for the cube. And also the graphics for Mario Galaxy 2 are still pretty decent in this day

Yeah it looks incredible in that first one.. is that how it runs vanilla? or do you need to do some optimization stuff?

PLEASE people, NO Dolphin shots. This is a celebratory thread about the Wii (and GameCube when appropriate) hardware. We all know that Wii games look pretty via Dolphin.

may not have the sharpest textures, but Xenoblade's art is damn fine.

Again this is not in game footage, but nice nevertheless

oh, isn't it? I guess the edges do seem a bit sharp. I figured by the picture's resolution that it wasn't a 1080p dolphin shot :/ . Oh well, beautiful game regardless.

This, definitely! F-Zero GX still looks great, and Galaxy 2 is one of the few Wii games that looks great on a big HD TV: jaggies, compared to most other Wii games, are almost non-existent.
Oddball choice for me definitely: Kirby's Epic Yarn! Beautiful, ALMOST too cute looking game! And I simply have to fire up the Snow Land at least once during December: this game has actually ousted Christmas NiGHTS as my no1 Chrimbo game!
