Silly cat! Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 3313	The graphics do look great, but... There's a certain kind of... jaggedness? I don't know, maybe the game won't look like that in motion (in fact, judging from the videos I've watched, it probably won't), but all the screenshots just seem to have a kind of silly quality. Looks great, though. Logged

Looks great, though. Although it's not as noticeable in motion, after just watching a video of it I found that the edges were still jagged. This is because, if I'm not mistaken, the Wii lacks to power to properly utilize anti-aliasing, which basically makes the edges look less jagged at the cost of using quite a large amount of processing power. « Last Edit: September 14, 2007, 02:58:58 am by InvaderLupus » Logged

Because the gamecube works at lower resolutions, so the image you're seeing needs to be blown up, plus the additional blur that is applied by your tv. The picture on the wii is much clearer than that of the GC, it's like how the porn industry doesn't like how HD adds a whole lot of wrinkles and stuff that were previously invisible because of the lower quality.

Ah, that makes sense. If only Nintendo had taken a few extra steps... But, Super Mario Galaxy looks good in motion, despite these screenshots.

	Don't forget that Nintendo adds in the AA reasonably late in development. Logged

I thought Nintendo consoles didn't AA period. Turns out they don't "fully utilise it". Meh, it still looks bloody amazing. Logged

Three Health=Harder game. Nintendo games have been getting easier and easier, so it'd be cool if Galaxy was harder then 64. Logged
