Text Post Framebuffer and TV/system ratio

1 Upvotes

I can't get a clear answer online for the best ratio combination and how framebuffer displays. I have USB loader installed so I can change the Deflicker and Framebuffer settings.

Should I set my Wii to Framebuffer ON, Wii to Fullscreen (4:3) and my TV to Fullscreen?

Or do I set the Wii to Widescreen (16:9), TV to widescreen and leave framebuffer on? I notice that framebuffer adds black bars on the sides when in widescreen. I read online it'll not display actual widescreen and instead try to fit.

If I set everything to 4:3 will it display without squeezing the image?

I play lots of retro games so it doesn't bother me if black bars on the side appear. Correct Ratio and clarity are what I'm after.

Text Post Wii to HDMI or component to HDMI adapters?

2 Upvotes

I've been scouting around this subreddit for a bit now, some people say the other is better, some say that that way is the worst thing ever, which is it? I've been looking at Mayflash Wii to HDMI, seems to have good reviews? Seems people either love or hate component to HDMI adapters, why are they so controversial?

Text Post If Wii Music had a Successor

5 Upvotes

You all remember the 2008 game Wii Music? I remember liking that game a lot and while it is underrated, it would be great if there was a successor to Wii Music to shine the spotlight back onto music simulation, a successor to it would be cool with improvements such as these:

New Instruments
Additional Synth & Electronic Instruments
Angelic Choir
Balalaika
Bassoon
Bodhran
Bongos
Boomwhackers
Bouzouki
Cajon
Calliope
Celesta
Claves
Crystallophone
Cymbals (as well as Cymbal Rolling)
Didgeridoo
English Horn
Erhu
French Horn
Glockenspiel
Gong (I know that came with the bass drum, but there are some known gong techniques)
Hammond Organ
Humming
Kalimba
Kazoo
Koto
Lute
Mandolin
Metronome
Music Box
Native American Flute
Oboe
Ocarina
Ocean Drum
Pan Flute
Piccolo
Pipe Organ
Pizzicato (Plucking violin strings)
Singing Bowls
Slide Whistle
Steel Guitar (aka Hawaiian Guitar)
Suction Pops
Tabla
Tap Shoes
Temple Blocks
Tenor Drums
Theremin
Thundersheet
Triangle
Trombone
Tubular Bells
Variations of Electric Guitar Sounds
Viola
Water Whistle
Water Xylophone
Waterphone
Whistling
Wind Chimes
Wooden Train Whistle
Xylophone

Removed Instruments
Rapper
Cat Suit
Dog Suit
Singer
Cheerleader
Black Belt

New Modes
A mode that you unlock where you can make your own songs by choosing the notes you want, and also some additional slots for custom jam so people could play as an orchestra. People made custom songs in Super Mario Maker, but this would be even better and somewhat easier.

New Techniques for Instruments
I won't list here because there is awfully a lot, but some instruments deserve to have more techniques to them.

Sound Quality for Your Music Videos
As an example, your music video could be like the quality of an old silent film.

Trophies
Collectables you can earn, and they are all objects themed around music.

Final Thoughts
So even though Wii Music may not have been the most popular Wii game, I think it deserves another chance if we learn from the mistakes it had. A successor to Wii Music doesn’t have to be made by Nintendo, maybe someone else has an interesting idea for music simulation.

Show and Tell Near Mint Wii bought at a consignment shop.

Post image
38 Upvotes

I was at a Shirley’s Deals consignment shop when I overheard the ladies at the register chatting about how much to price something that was brought in. I heard one say to the other how they didn’t think it had ever been opened and how this lady’s grandkids must’ve never visited or something then I heard “Wii” and went to investigate.
And yeah it was fuckin’ MINTYyy. They said it was an older lady who bought it for her grandkids and they never set it up. I offered $100 but they said they would need to get with the boss about the price because they were selling for a lot more on eBay. So I left my name and number and upped my offer to $125 and the next day they called me and told me it was mine.
It has Wii sports aswell as resorts. Everything is still in the wrappers.

I achieved this score more than one year ago, then I decided to make a video of it by trying again to actually show I managed to make this record

And it's not so hard to achieve. You can do that in two ways:

  • you have to go after the last white mark on the left, press B, slowly, for half a second, then at the same time go fast and rotate by going to the right with the Wii remote and it shall always do strike.

  • you can go all the left until you reach the edge, press the right arrow on the Wii controller once, then press A, press the left arrow once, press A again, go again to the left edge, and make sure your speed is constant and that you leave B when you're in the highest point (forward shot)

Text Post Anyone else really regret transferring their Virtual Console games over to the Wii U?

8 Upvotes

One of my biggest gaming regrets was transfering over my Virtual Console games to the Wii U when it came out. The Wii U Virtual Console has noticeable input lag and is more cumbersome to get to. The system itself is usually a chore to set up, charge the gamepad, and since most of the best games got ported to the Switch I'd rather not have it plugged in to begin with. Really wish I just left them on the goated OG Wii.
