Little Kings Story - I used a Photoshop batch command to resize and save for web, this also adds a sharpen filter on automatically. So if the images look very sharp, that is why.
:EDIT: A lot of the sharpening seems to have been lost in the upload so it doesn't look too different from the game.

if you want to remove a bit of that blur filter, you can right click the game and choose the "Skies of..." patch in the drop down menu. If you need any speedup, you can enable displaylist cache.
You might want to switch from imgur in the future. Abload is a great alternative that won't ruin your pics.

Wow, this is some amazing stuff.
I recently built a pretty nice computer and I've been dying to replay Twilight Princess, but my Wii refuses to read the disc for some reason.
Seems like the next logical step is...

bee said:this emulator is liking my 2500k@4.4ghzi don't have many games but all gamecube games run 1080p, 4xaa, 16xaf @ 60fps and even super mario galaxy runs 99% of the time at 60, lowest i've seen it drop was when you fly and land in the galaxy, when it dropped to 57
Wow, time to get a new cooler and ditch the stock one!

Good enough to ditch a real Wii?

yes, performance is ridiculous really coming from my old Q9550, the games are all 100% playable although some obviously have emulation issues, if you can put up with these then go for it. gonna get donkey kong this week i think, that game looks so good
couple of random shots, taken at 1080p and resized to 720p for forum use

You just don't get the game.
Well, I was using 6893, so assuming they didn't rebreak it in less then 48 hours, I'll try that 4797.Nabs said:
Edit: Not working for me with r6880 ether, but it does work fine in r4789. Watch cut scene, save, and now I can play in r6893, yay!
On anther note, Super Paper Mario runs really well on my computer, very rarely would it dip below 60 FPS and I think the lowest it went down to in an hour of "game play" (Advancing though text upon text up text) was 50 during some effects with Bleck showing up.
Here is a shot in 720p, no AA though since I need a better Video Card still:
Nice! I got running New Super Mario Bros with the config at the first page and it looks gorgeous. Also, i synced my Wiimote to my PC using the built in blutooth adapter in my Asus P8P67 mobo
The game is fully playable, but doesn't run at full speed all the time, with some noticeable drops at 95% (2500k @stock 3,3ghz).

christ on a bike mario kart looks amazing. What specs other than an i5 2500k? Would an i7 2600k be even better? Any specific GPU? Was considering a gentle gaming PC build with a 460GTX as i'm not a heavy PC gamer, but if this will let me ditch the wii it'd be brilliant.
(BTW, does it just run wii games direct off disc? Can I rip them like on my USB loader? I guess gamecube games would need to be ripped due to the size of the discs)
And can you use wii controllers etc completely fine?

Great argument. So eloquent and insightful.MYE said:

Let me elaborate, Super Paper Mario is not a bad looking game by any stretch of the imagination and someone calling it crude makes me wonder if there's something terribly wrong with their eyesight.
How's that?
I could also post screenshots:
But hey, opinions and all that.
EDIT: Someone make an appretiation thread. I really wanna post more pretty pics lol

God this game is gorgeous! More screens!
I'm debating on setting this up for my PC since I just upgraded my graphics card.
Before getting all the Wii supplies, how would this perform on a Q6600 (OC'd to 3.4GHz) and a GTX 570? Would I be able to run most games pretty well, or do you need a CPU over 4GHz?
I might try testing it on a couple of GameCube games first.

I would just try it. The emulator is pretty straight forward, it seems. I just downloaded it but was able to start into a game pretty easily. if you have a gamepad, you can set it as a gamecube controller and it should work fine. Try either a GC game or a game that doesn't require the IR sensor.joesmokey said:

Speaking of eyesight, is something wrong with mine if I can tell absolutely no difference between no Anti-Aliasing and 9xSSAA? I even took screen shots in the exact same place and compared them and I can't see a difference. I must be doing it wrong.
Such an amazing game. Namco did a brilliant job with the visuals in StarFox Assault, seeing such HD screens really does the game justice.bee said:

Everytime i come in this thread i get so annoyed ninty hasnt done a wii hd those games look amazing.
I just used Amazon in the US to get one. $5 shipped with Prime, came in 2 Days. Anything will work, but one thing to note that I over looked, you will likely want a wireless sensor bar too. Sure, you can do Hybrid mode to use the mouse for the pointer, but it is a bit annoying to do.Lettuce said:
Most games GUI's are 2D images, AA and AF don't do anything to them. The people who make Dolphin could try to add in some SaI or Super Eagle 2D filter like the Super Nintendo Emulators have, but I am pretty sure that effects the entire picture and not the individual elements.
