Is the Wii good? (lemmy.zip)

I hold the Wii pretty high in my head. However, I also know that the grass is often very green on the other side.

Is it actually as fun as I remember? I see that a lot of the classic games are pretty rare so that is not reassuring.

Trust me, the difference is massive, especially when comparing to a Wii using component. Like I mentioned the internal scaler in the Wii u is horrid, it makes games blurry, zooms in and lowers brightness, a Wii over component is miles better.

With an early model Wii you obviously also have full GameCube back compat, with games and almost all peripherals, yes you can run GameCube through Nintendont in vwii on wii u but then we’re getting into grey areas
