It's also aged really well visually because cell shading. What TV are you playing it on? Have you got a CRT set up or is it on a modern TV? I usually play all my Gamecube games via emulation with upscaling because the actual Gamecube looks like shit on my TV.  Most games and consoles pre PS3/360 gen look like wank on anything but a CRT. I was playing Super Metroid on my Switch via TV the other day and even though it outputs via HDMI at 1080P it looks shit. Had to switch to RetroArch with scanlines and CRT filtering before my OCD stopped kicking my arse.   Also Ikaruga is fucking awesome but fuck me it's rock hard! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AxlisOld 9,026 Posted February 17 Author Report Share Posted February 17 Plasma. CRT does not have a place in my house. It'll be through my Wii with an HDMI output. I have a media PC with an HDMI card that I could use Dolphin with and see how that looks. That's also the only way I'm gonna be able to play Breath of the Wild.

Breath of the Wild works really well on the CEmu emulator as long as you have a decent graphics card. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So basically you take your TV off it’s stand and literally stand it on it’s end so you can play in pinball table ratio rather than having big borders at the edges of the screen. I’m sure my old plasma didn’t appreciate being fucked with like that.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I used to LOVE top down shooters like this in the acrade. 1941, Sky Shark, Raiden. It's a badass game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
