    Misc Nintendo Wii U 1080p vs 480p output for Virtual Wii

    Source 480p is true but as the video shows it can produce different results depending on the Wii U res settings. Emulation is the best for a graphics bump for sure.

    Misc Nintendo Wii U 1080p vs 480p output for Virtual Wii

    I just wanted to show there is a difference - it really just comes down to personal preference (and also what your TV does to upscale 480p)

    Totally. And gamepad won’t have these weird upsampling issues.

    Misc Nintendo Wii U 1080p vs 480p output for Virtual Wii

    Very neat! I did set my Wii U to 480p when playing Pikmin 2 & Mario Galaxy 2. Seemed less harsh but it was cumbersome to switch back and forth when playing Wii U games so if a switcher gets added that’d be awesome.

    Breath Of The Wild, DLC worth it?

    I enjoyed the DLC and tried to delay beating the game until all the quests and DLC was done. I failed that though because I got fed up with the master sword quest and beat the game anyway.

    Misc Nintendo Wii U 1080p vs 480p output for Virtual Wii

    Comparison of a Nintendo Wii U set to 1080p vs 480p to see what it does for the vWii (virtual Wii mode). It appears that if the system is set to 1080p the Wii U does some upsampling and sharpening. If the system is set to 480p it looks like it's left to the TV to do upsampling and in my case it...

    Homebrew Issues with WD Gaming Drives?

    These "gamer" drives are apparently optimized for PlayStations. Windows wouldn't assign it a drive letter automatically but some command line stuff fixed that. I was able to format it Fat32 and they work great - once then I have to do the restart and default the settings, etc. and it seems like...

    Homebrew Issues with WD Gaming Drives?

    Homebrewed my Wii U / vWii and bought two "WD 2TB Gaming Drives", one to store Wii U games and another to store vWill stuff (GameCube/Wii). They both worked without y-cables (there were issues) so I have since gotten y-cables (there are still issues, heh). For Wii U, WUP Installer GX2 usually...
