Easy enough. the [number]x[number] is just how many pixels wide, then high many pixels tall the image is.

So 16:9 means that for every sixteen pixels widthwise, there are nine pixels heightwise.

I know that.

"I see what's going on. No need to flip out."

I like to flip out.

"If TP is supposed to display at "true widescreen," then Link's hearts and on-screen indicators would be VERY close to the side edges of the TV screen -- but I don't think that's the case, and I believe Caliban actually sees a noticeable amount of unused game space between the indicators and edges."

True.

"More importantly, I noticed Caliban's TV ISN'T BLACK, more like a silver or grey or maybe white, so NO WONDER the black bars are painfully noticeable."

It is Silver. The black bars aren't that annoying to me (I watch plenty of 4:3 anime dvds), what's annoying is that Capcom could have amplified the rendering view so that it didn't feel so constricted as it seems to me, I get the sensation that I'm playing with a stretched 4:3 view instead of an increased camera view, I don't know if I'm making myself clear enough but whatever I've got the game now so no more "bitching" from me.

This is entirely true. RE4:Wii only outputs 640x336 worth of detail no matter what. Everyone got the shaft.

So can Wii even do true widescreen?

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #279 on:** July 31, 2007, 12:53:53 PM »

Wii does. Every default Wii channel does. Even Eternal Darkness does.

But RE4:Wii fakes it. It was Capcom's cheap, port-o-matic fix.

Bumpin' for great victory!

RE4 Wii has hit 750,000 worldwide so far. I expect Capcom to bring more games ports to the Wii.

Okami pls kthxbye.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #283 on:** August 31, 2007, 10:21:20 AM »

Okami? no way.

GODHAND is coming to save us from RYGAR.

Mashiro · « **Reply #284 on:** August 31, 2007, 12:46:25 PM »

Nice bump!

Maybe capcom will get a clue and give us more than just an on-rail shooter.

Kairon · « **Reply #285 on:** August 31, 2007, 01:03:38 PM »

I'd get Godhand. I'd get it soooo bad.

Smash_Brother · « **Reply #286 on:** September 01, 2007, 01:11:31 PM »

I'd like to try Okami but am unwilling to buy a PS2 for it.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #287 on:** October 30, 2007, 03:49:58 AM »

The game has reached another sales milestone, as IGN has reported that Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition has passed the 1 Million mark!

Athrun Zala · « **Reply #288 on:** October 30, 2007, 05:39:35 AM »

I wonder how will Capcom interpret the fact that, a port of a 2 year old game sold 1mill units in about 4 months...

I hope it's "RE5 needs to be there"... not "Ports AHOY!"...

Adrock · « **Reply #289 on:** October 30, 2007, 07:23:26 AM »

I thought Capcom shipped over 1 million units which is an entirely different landmark.

Wii isn't getting RE5. There's a better chance of getting a non-numbered main series game like Code Veronica based on the RE4 engine and even that seems like a stretch because apparently, most 3rd parties think Wii needs more light gun and party games.

There you go. I fixed it for you.

Crapcom won't bring us RE5.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #291 on:** October 30, 2007, 10:22:54 AM »

I bet these RE4 numbers were behind the decision to port Okami to the Wii

I'm sure that had a lot to do with it too.

NinGurl69 *huggles · « **Reply #293 on:** October 30, 2007, 03:32:07 PM »

Difference is RE4 was already a success before being ported.

If anything, I think that would've worked against it. It sold almost a million copies LTD on the Cube and the PS2 version sold a helluva lot too. I'd have thought the RE4 market was already saturated. But there are people like me who bought the game twice and it ended up being a success.

I think Okami will do better on Wii than it did on PS2 for sure.

My friend made this for our site in honor of Halloween.

Hmmm...the ghost is, uh....AH! He is the smoke monster from the original RE4 trailers! He's just contained under a sheet or something....

Spooky Proof!

Ah I love the hook man version of RE4, so different from the final version =)

ShyGuy · « **Reply #299 on:** September 26, 2009, 11:34:50 AM »

So I finally tried the Wii version last night. I'm surprised how long it is taking me to get use to the controls. They feel a little off still.
