Thing is, when a Wii game comes out with excellent graphics, you appreciate them more, because of the Wii's limitations.
When a 360/ps3 game comes out and looks nice, you think, "oh, that looks nice", but because of the horsepower under the hood, you almost expect that kind of goodness, and it doesn't seem as special.
Anyway, I thought SMG looked stunning in the first place.

I think he's talking about the people who support SD over HD, haven't seen many of those lately.

..is there no way Nintendo could produce some kind of HD add on??...i would buy it but others who were happy with SD would leave it alone....most people have a larger screen than a few years ago and 480p on 46" 1080p screen can look a bit rubbish...... |

The only thing they could do is release an upscaler add-on. HD games require higher resolution graphical assets to be made so you would need new games for the new hd-version and the whole point they went SD in the first place was to make the hardware affordable and the game development cheaper. I imagine if they are going HD they will wait until their next console. |

SMG looks stunning as it is, but those screenshots are out of this world, sorry about the pun.
we all know wii hd is coming, so graphic bashing won't be much of a problem anymore if it pumps out visuals like this. |

Surely the big block to going HD and 720p is no-where near enough texture memory. |

These screens look class. I hope that Nintendo does make some HD add on but I don't think they will because im not sure if an HD add on would work? I dunno. |

Basically what I am saying is can somthing be an add on to a games console that would make it HD? Ive never seen anything like that before. Also I don't think Nintendo would make new consoles with HD added in just for the sake of it as I would cost them a lot of money and I wouldn't buy it because I already spent �180 on my Wii. |

Exactly, plus Nintendo have already stated on more than one occassion than they have no interest in making a HD Wii, and their next console will obviously be in HD.

I dont think they need bother making a Wii HD. The Wii target market probably couldnt give a toss about HD gaming, its generally for the hardcore anyways. I dont think it would sell enough compared to the standard Wii to justify the production. HD or not Wii games look toss for the most part compared to the other machines. The composite lead you can buy gives you a decent picture on a HD tv, i was happy with that when i had my white box of love |

Not to mention that they would have to release two versions of every game! |

Really? Well even more so then, Wii HD would likely be an epic disaster |
