nm, I did not read your post carefully.

 

here is a review of the Wii2HDMI 1080p (not the Neoya one that only gives an 480p output)


that guy says it works... but all the people at dealextreme says it doenst upscale the image to 1080p

also we have
ViewHD Wii2HDMI 1080p
HDMI converter
IMAGE HDMI Converter (that comes with a USB card reader )
GTMax Wii to HDMI (that comes with a Nect Strap to hold your LCD )
Another HDMI converter
The Wii HDMI Cable 720p

and the HDMIKey that it's expensive and doesnt do anything fancy. It can be upgraded, but the Wiikey team doenst bother to release a firmware update.

there are soo many... probably they're all chinese copies of the Wii2HDMI 1080p (except the HDMIKey and the Neoya's Wii2HDMI)

 

It's really not going to look any better than 480p, no matter which one you buy.

 

To get HDMI output. It doesnt have to do with some sort of magic increase of resolution.
With a HDMI cable you can plug the Wii into a normal monitor (hdmi to DVI adapter) for example.

This is very handy for for example students who aint made of money and cant afford both a monitor and a TV.

There are a lot of benefits with HDMI ports.

 

I stand corrected, HDMI does seem to look clearer/more crisp.

 

Is he using the same display for both sets of pics, or two separate screens? If it's not the same TV (or monitor) direct comparison isn't really telling, as it could be differences in the displays causing the changes.

 

Am I the only one not seeing any difference whatsoever? lol

 

every single one of these will always do the same thing they will NOT display anything in 1080p they will make colours slightly more vibrant and sharper and that's it. your main reason to get 1 of these is to you can run the wii off a hdmi connection. any1 that says these will magically turn run games in 1080p is full of shit

the one from Neoya is your best bet it's cheap, it works (i use it) and it will run off a hdmi connection.

 

yeap, I will order one of from Neoya. The copy one at Dealextreme cost $9 less (due to DX having free shipping) and it says that has an upscaler (but everyone it's complaining that the switch button it's just a hole and you can’t switch to 1080p).
Since the internal upscaler of my LCD (Samsung B550) does a good job with 480p signals ... I will go with the Neoya one, perhaps it has better build construction.

But before ordering one, I would like to know if it can handle interlaced Wiiware games (like Megaman 9) and out of region interlaced gamecube games (480i PAL in my case). If it not to much trouble, can you test that for me blade?

 

The emulators convert the games to progressive scan if you have your wii set in 480p, unless you have changed the default settings of the emulator.

about wiiware games... the only one that runs only in 480i is Megaman 9 (and 10)

with gamecube games I really dont know... all the games are interlaced?

btw... your pimped wii is sick!!!
