The twilight princess hd release for wiiu is beautiful. It’s really gonna seem like a step down (on my big screen) when I move on to skyward sword which won’t be in HD. I will never understand why the wiiu won’t just render the wii games in HD. If Nintendo 64 emulators can do it (oot and mm look beautiful with the right texture pack, the limited polygons being the only things that look dated when you use hi res texture packs, but it can easily me interpreted as just having an anime look) and dolphin for pc can do it, I don’t see why official Nintendo hardware won’t do it. The original wiis graphics we’re really quite good most of the time, simply rendering it at a higher resolution would be enough for me, I wouldn’t need any further enhancements. But instead I have to deal with jaggies, pixelated backgrounds, and blocky models. All of which would be solved by simply rendering it at a higher resolution. Hell even super Nintendo emulators can do it now. Super Nintendo games look great rendered in hi res. Obviously not very fancy or graphically impressive, but they look crystal clear and not pixelated or blocky… Almost like a modern game that’s trying to look “retro”.
