I think it's a 32" Plasma. Not too sure, ‘cause I have no idea what inches are. It used to be an old SD TV that I’ve had for as long as I can remember, but it started making the random flashes of yellow colours, so in the summer of 2008 Santa got me a widescreen. Plugged in the Wii, loaded up Brawl, and as soon as my parents would drive me to the shops I grabbed component cables.
Thought I should post this here. Ever since I got my new TV, I've noticed some weird thing going on with the sprites in Mega Man 9. They don't look completely even, as though they don't quite "fit" into the pixels on the screen. I don't think this was an issue with my old TV. Has anyone else had this problem? It's not too big of deal, but something I've been wondering about. Does it have something to do with the resolution of my TV screen not matching the resolution of my Wii? FYI, my TV's resolution is 1920 x 1080.
It's also there in Mega Man 10, but it's not as noticeable, since the graphics look kinda blurred over compared to Mega Man 9.
Used to play it on a 42 inch plasma , but I found I was getting too many headaches. So I bought a 32inch LED HD ready and moved tthe wii to the othr living room. The visuals actually look better on and I get less of those headaches!

You'd think you would get more of a headache due to the LED's inferior motion.
Is there "inferior motion"? I haven't notice AT ALL. I noticed some differences in the menu speed in scrolling - that's it. The visuals seem better than the plasma though

It probably is. I know with a lot of pre-HD games it's not going to look the same because the pixels on a widescreen TV have a different shape compared to those on a 4:3 TV (regardless of whether your widescreen TV is set to 4:3 mode), though it's not too noticeable unless you look for it. Given Megaman 9&10 were likely made in the old way, I wouldn't be surprised if they were affected similarly.

Thing is, none of my Virtual Console games have that problem. Not even the 60hz ones. I don’t think if it has anything with the shape of the pixels. Here’s a picture, note how some parts of the life bar are smaller than others, and the general wonkiness of Mega Man’s sprite
It looks even worse when in motion, because it's almost like columns of pixels are missing or something.
I remember it looking great on my old CRT (R.I.P.).
40ish inches HDTV with component cables. Don't know what kind (Plasma, LCD), b/c it's my bfs. The components are sort of a mixed blessing. They look great for games like Metroid Prime, but the Wii Sports/Wii fit type games and my VC games look better with regular old composite.
I am way too lazy to think of something clever. My Backloggery
40" Samsung 1080p 60hz with component hookups, looks pretty good. And, I don't notice the pixel issues from any of my VC or WiiWare games (including MegaMan 9 & 10). Games look amazing, but I don't have a 360 or P3 to compare with...
Dear Santa, I'd like Super Smash Bros. 4 before we all die next year! Your pal, Hortencio.
It's like, I just love a cowboy
You know
I'm just like, I just, I know, it's bad
But I'm just like
Can I just like, hang off the back of your horse
And can you go a little faster?!
So no-one has any idea what's going on with Megaman, and no-one else notices anything odd with it on their 1080p HDTVs?
Your problem is with the upscaling method used by your TV. They probably used some sort of "best fit" interpolation instead of bilinear or quadradic..............
oh... and 32" Samsung LCD. Planning on getting a 40" Samsung LED backlit screen later but I'm not expecting Wii games to look great on it. It's more for Blu-Ray and other HD content.
I play my wonderful Wii games on a huge screen, and my terrible ones on a tiny portable, ad try to get the unpleasant experience over with as soon as I can.
