Indeed.

The resolution advantage the VC version has is plain as day, which is why the pixels are not gigantoid.

Using composites for the N64 shots wouldn't make the gigantoid pixels go away.

If by advantage you mean disadvantage.

N64 definitely has anti-aliasing.  It's just that anti-aliasing can only do so much when the pixels are so big.

I'm glad someone finally made a comparison, and I am equally as glad that N64 games will be rendered at the highest resolution possible on the Wii.  This'll make four-player games a real treat.

I believe this is due to them not porting over the procedural texture effects programmed for the N64's graphics processor.  I also noticed similar changes in Ocarina of Time for the Gamecube (on the bonus disc that came with Wind Waker); the Twinrova fire/ice "splash" effects on the floor were quite different, and the nasty purple gloom stuff that haunts Kakariko and covers Bongo Bongo when he dies were replaced with just a bland brownish blob.
