Hi!!
Ia have hooked my old homebrewed Wii to a wonderful Panasonic CRT with Composite. Everything is running fine in 60 Hz.
There is one single issue with a VC Neo Geo Title named "Last Resort". To run it, i needed to turn on Region Free Everything in Priiloader.
When I launch Last Resort from the NeoGeo Virtual Console, the image appears to be in 16:9 — but it’ seems not true widescreen. It’s actually a 4:3 image with black bars added top and bottom (letterboxed), which only looks like 16:9.
When I switch my CRT from 4:3 to 16:9 mode to “compensate”, the image gets even more horizontally compressed, which confirms it’s not genuine 16:9 content — the TV is stretching an already letterboxed 4:3 signal.
So the Wii appears to be outputting a 4:3 signal, but the game adds letterbox bars internally, resulting in a squished, pillarboxed-within-letterboxed mess.
Other VC titles (e.g. SNES games like Axelay) display correctly in 4:3 without any issues.
Has anyone found a fix — either via Priiloader video patches or WAD editing — to force the correct 4:3 output for NeoGeo VC titles?
I would apprechiate any suggestion how to run NeoGeo Games authentic as possible. I also tried the Emulator (with correct size), but sadly i have Glitches.
