wii 4.3E - 480p - Priiloader Region free everything.

It appears using wads of the Rebirth games Castlevania, Contra and Gradius the games boot in 480i.

However I bought Gradius Rebirth from the store way back and it boots in 480p without any prompts whilst the wad version still boots at 480i.

My question is : How do you force the Rebirth wads to use 480p?

I’m not sure about the wads forcing 480p unless your wii is already set to 480p. You are however able to manually change the width and height of the game display in the game options for the rebirth series.

More specifically Why are the wads not 480p what has changed.

Looking online all three games output at 480p I would expect nothing less from M2.

Other wiiware games I have looked output at 480p.

I guess I should have bought the other two when the eshop was open. More fool me.

    From what people say pvp isn't even worth it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    I just been playing offline, and they give you a few bots here n there on your team to help battle. I don't think it's as funny as the other games tho, more battle oriented than humor, which kinda sucks, but I'm still early in it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @BigOnYa, doesnt the game have a campaign mode?
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Yea, and co-op, but you can also start a pvp session and battle just with friends. You get special skill cards (powers) the more you play. And higher value cards, but you can only enable so many cards at a time.
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    If you can find enough for it
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Toilet paper is considered the money, you collect and buy stuff with TP, kinda funny. Graphics are def better than the other games tho, I think they used Unity 5 engine.

    I bet most people at the time still watched it in black and white

    @Xdqwerty, Many of them did before colour television was common.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Likely because black and white TV was in-expensive.

  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    It certainly wasn't inexpensive it cost the same as a new car back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    How much did a 1965 color TV cost?

    For example, a 21-inch (diagonal) GE color television in 1965 had an advertised price of $499, which is equal to $4,724 in today's dollars, according to the federal government's inflation calculator.

    @K3Nv2, take into consideration how economy was back then
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:
    Yeah that's why they listed inflation rates
