It is maintaining that 240/288 vertical resolution that is important and you can with retroarch wii. This is because the Wii can't display a horizontal resolution as low as 256 so you have to double it but doubling the horizontal resolution does not affect the image as far as I can tell. For example, the NES resolution was 256 x 240, so in retroarch you would set the resolution at 512 x 240. Keep in mind that to run games in retroarch Wii at their native resolution you need to double the horizontal resolution that was native to the console emulated. I literally feel like I am playing the original console. I use retroarch Wii on my Trinitron KV-24FS100 and it looks fantastic.
#WII SEGA EMULATOR 2016 TV#
With Retroarch Wii, you can play NES, SNES, Genesis/Sega CD/SMS, Turbografx/CD, GBA, Gameboy, Arcade (CPS1/CPS2, Neo-Geo, Konami, etc.), and a few others.Īs far as I can tell, running emulators through retroarch in each systems native resolution on a CRT TV is identical to the image produced by the original consoles.
PS One emulation is also hit or miss on the wii. The virtual console is good for Nintendo 64 games as homebrew N64 emulation is not that great, although some games run well. For some reason, for some of the virtual console games (especially all NES games), the image is much darker than if the game was played on the original console but retroarch doesn't have this problem. There are also some good homebrew emulators like fce ultra gx that can be used through the homebrew channel. MmBuddha, if I was you, for most games I wouldn't even bother with virtual console and just use retroarch.
This is what I did and I was able to learn the basics pretty quickly (in under an hour).
#WII SEGA EMULATOR 2016 HOW TO#
One of the best ways to do this is to just watch a youtube video on how to use retroarch. There is a slight learning curve to retroarch but once you learn the basics it is pretty easy to use. Maybe it's more user friendly now, but it was cumbersome when I tried it. Getting retroarch to work well was a pita though. Any contribution about any of what I've written above would be greatly appreciated. All options considered, old Wii and new, RGB scart or component, what do you think would be my best option for quality through a PVM/BVM? Has SHMUPS reached any conclusions on this matter, and should it concern me on my quest for optimal picture quality?Ħ. I've heard rumours that these output slightly higher quality signal via component. I actually have two Pal Wii's, one original white Wii with the GameCube ports, and a later horizontal black Wii, called something along the lines of a 'Family Edition'.
#WII SEGA EMULATOR 2016 240P#
Will roms using a homebrew emulator encur the same issue, or should they all output at 240p for a non-blurred, scanline-heavy picture just like the good old days?ĥ. That some do and others don't, and some elaborate button combos are sometimes required. I heard there are some complications when it comes to Virtual Console games outputting 240p. Would this, along with the appropriate converter cable be the best way to go with a PVM/BVM, or should I look into using the component output?Ĥ. I have a Pal Wii, along with an official RGB scart cable. Have there been any conclusions around here as to how the Wii stacks up in terms of picture quality on CRT televisions, verses the original consoles? With such a high quality CRT on the cards, I imagine small differences matter.ģ.
Who here uses an original Wii as their primary emulation system? How have you found it, and is it still working well in 2016?Ģ. I have many questions and I can't ask them all, so I've been most eager to find out the following:ġ. As I can neither afford nor store a collection of original consoles, my plan is to pair, eventually, a Sony PVM/BVM with a softmodded Wii, and use it to build a collection of roms and suitable emulators focusing mainly on 8 and 16-bit era games. For a long time now I've been hoping to put together a CRT + emulator setup, looking for optimal quality and (hopefully) convenience.
