When we first heard about VDIGI's new VD-W3 Wii upscaler, a product that promised it could bring high definition graphics to the Wii, it sounded too good to be true. "Better review it, then" we thought. Just to be sure.
The VD-W3 is hardly a new idea - standalone "upscalers" have been around for years, primarily for DVD players - but it is the first we've seen solely dedicated to the Nintendo Wii. It works in much the same way an expensive TV, DVD player (or even HD console) does when trying to display standard definition content on a high definition TV set, by attempting to smooth out lines and present a cleaner image than the raw, SD feed could manage.
Nintendo has announced the SNES and Super Famicom games gracing the Nintendo Switch Online library this month, and there are some gems to enjoy.
Strange headline, as I thought the star of the show was Super RType. I almost bought RType Dimensions EX this last month and was just thinking, man I wish we had the SNES one somewhere on Switch. That's where I got my start w the series and I was beyond excited to see it drop this week!
Following the Wii U and 3DS servers being taken offline, Call of Duty Black Ops 2 and Ghosts are officially dead.
Call of Duty players are jumping into Black Ops 2 for the final time before its Wii U servers go offline for good.
Dolphin emulator and a high powered PC is the only decent way to play Wii games in HD
its a start. but it just does not compare to dolphin hd.
It's good to know that this $75 item doesn't upscale anything (it's main selling point). It's good that it would fix the "washed out" look that I get from turning on the Wii though.
Is the answer my kids play the Wii through the upscaler on my YAMAHA
AV AMP into my HD Projector on to our 92" screen it looks soft and the upscaler on my amp will be better than that gizmo.
Upscaling isn't HD lol.
