Check out a video of the Super Mario Galaxy running in HD after the break (don't forget to turn on HD in the player). It's in HD. Did we mention that yet?

To show evidence that YouTube HD videos do indeed run at 480p, I set my display's resolution to 1280x800, clicked the HD button on the video in question, and took a screen capture. As you can see from the link below, the video is not running at 1280x720, as it would have filled the display if that were the case. Setting the video run in full screen only stretches the image, it does not run it at the display's current resolution.

@Mazzani,
This is what I got when I did the same thing. It's a perfect 1280x720, no stretching. As bm said, "You must either be blind, running your desktop at a 480 res, or have some sort of technical issue with youtube's videos."

It's like... why even bother playing on the real console when emulators can do better than it?

I'm just saying in general, it's funny how emulators ends up surpassing the original systems in most ways.

Between the 720p games and the installing the motion drivers, any one with a powerful PC wouldn't need wii Since it does the job better.

Man, I just wish that the next Nintendo console will be able to play the old Wii games, and re-render them completely in HD. Not only stretch them.
You guys should check SSBB in HD. I was really blown away.

What the hell? That's chugging like a little bitch. Don't give me any of this 'fraps only supports 30fps!' nonsense. And it looks shit. Dolphin is not ready to be used IRL.

Yeah it is. It's a small team and they have to configure each game individually. Go look at their videos of Animal Crossing City Folk.
If anything this just shows how full of shit Nintendo is this generation.

is it ironic that this looks worse than the original, but everyone is now really impressed by it?
or is that just stupid?

Wait, you can emulate wii games with a gamecube emulator?
I would think it would take at least two emulators duct-taped together.

I would love a hi-def version of star fox..
I would buy the next gen wii, If there was going to be a starfox HD, I love that game and with wiimote it could be very very interesting.. Interesting to see what Nintendo will do from here, they have enough reserves to take a risk, I would have though anyway..

this totaly useless this emulator is WIP(work in progress) reviewing emulators in this state misleeds ppl, SMG can now be fully playable but a couple of revisinons later it might not, so just stop reviewing an unfinished emulator, noobs see this and start judging dolphin when in reality it not finished

Quite frankly, i don´t see the difference? Maybe since I don´t base my life on counting the pixels on screen...
