I do have one question though with it being 480p which im not bothered about mind u but will it look crap on my 40" HD LCD ? i got it for my 360 but im getting the WII also as i just think the fun factor is going to be of the scale so to speak :)

1. depends on native res of your TV or the scaler in your TV
2. could depend on the scaler inside the Wii (if at all)
3. did the wii look bad in the demo booths on the 40" plus TVs ?

It's really the wrong type of game though to comment on quality of graphics. The pokeman genre has never been for the graphics and personally, I don't think they are terrible at all.

The only game so far that looks absolute trash on the Wii and I'm absolutely disgusted the the developers have the balls or cheek to release it is that Super GP racing game, they should be shot. But other than that, I don't see an issue.

sorry, maybe should have clarified - i was referring to that JPG strip showing the games. Each one looked, just, bad. Worse than GC i'd say.

which effects in particular ?
looks fine to me, would prefer to see it in the flesh than 320 resoultion with compression.
 
oh knows it looks the same as the GCN.

and upclose and personal the GCN looks pretty lame these days, possibly exaggerated by HDTV's..

why o why didnt they at least upgrade the GFX and make it output 720P, and 480P natively...

If you're that fussy buy a £200 scaler and scale it yourself, or get a VGA cable and play it on a 21" CRT monitor at 480P with USA software, for a console half a decade old that was available at £98 on launch it isnt as bad as people make out.
The scaler in my Samsung is pretty good, you just get jaggies on the gamecube, as you do with the PS2 and Xbox.
 
As long as the Wii can maintain a nice framerate with some spiced up cube graphics im happy.

The 360 on the other hand and framerates....well i wont say no more.
 
I'm amazed at how small the console is.
Though the console + controller it's self looks cheap and tacky IMHO!.
I will wait and see what you guys on here say before I even think about buying this :)

Because its small? :confused: Or looks cheap and tacky? You ever seen a pricey looking games console?
 
The Gamecube "flap" is a bit tacky looking, but that might be only in the video. I have one on pre-order, so we will have to wait and see.

EDIT: Typos, I hate them!
