Regarding High Definition

Hey guys, I couldn't stand it any longer so I put myself in debt and bought a HDTV. I'm glad I did because games onthe 360 look awesome and I can finally read the damn text in Dead Rising. Admittedly the Wii's graphics aren't quite on par with the 360's so I was wondering if it is worth getting the high def cables for Wii or won't it make that much of a difference? It's strange that they don't include them with the console but owell. ThanksRegarding High Definition
well i think they are worth it i got them and legend of zelda looks better with them it makes every game look good althought it doesnt look like the360 it makes a differenceRegarding High Definition
Yes it will make the Wii look much better on an HDTv I have an LCD and Im glad I got them.
Ok thanks I'll pick some up soon.
Dont... in the PS3 running a PS2 game, the difference is slightly visible, since the Wii only can run 480p (which is trash), you will be dissapointed.
but 480pwould have to bebetter than 0p. I guess I'll just have to see how much it costs.
I would get a cheap one but nothing that big. Its a difference but not a big one.
It does. Do yourself a HUUUGE favor, and pick up some non-first party (cheaper) cables at best buy, set it to 16:9 480p, pop in Zelda and have your mind blown as it goes from like a PS2 game to just plain wow.
they are definatly worth every penny. they seriously make the image look much much better than without. Go or it!
Gozmondo has comparisons.jsut scroll over the pic to see the difference. its pretty significant..Linky
Note: You get a similar visual improvement going from Composite (the one that comes with the Wii) cable to RGB cable (the one with a scart socket built in). I haven't noticed much difference between RGB and Component. Course it does depend on what connectors your TV happens to have.
i saw those pics and yah they do make a big difference. anyways, even if i didnt see em id still tell u to go and buy em
Yes, this isn't even a debate.The people who say no are wrong, period.
Yes. As I do not have them myself (yet), I cannot give you that great of an opinion on the topic, but what I can say is that they do make a big difference. While they still won't compare to what your 360 has to offer, they will still greatly improve what your wii has to offer.
Wow thanks for the link it does seem alot better. Yea I'm gonna have to pick a cable up now. Thanks for your comments.

Okami is great.
I just obtained a HiDef cable and hooked up my Wii console to my 4:3 HD TV. I set all the settings (EDTV, 480p) and it works, BUT on several menus, I get an instability at the top of the screen (a wiggling and a shaking). This appears in the Home menu and a few others, but not in the games that I tried. Has anyone seen this and if so, how do you fix it?. Thanks
From the pics I've seen, the extra cost of high-def cables to get the EDTV visuals probably isn't worth it. It doesn't look like enough of a boost in the refresh rate (which makes me question the pics, really) to make enough of a difference in picture quality, especially depending on the age of your tv. More to the point, with the games being released these days with their focus moving away spectacular graphics (not that that's a bad thing, mind you. Done right, that can be a rather nice complement to the game really), it may be even less of an issue.
