nathanallan Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 How do they do? i havea GC and am getting a Wii soon enough. I will want to play the GC games on it. Right now I'm playing Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, and on the GC the graphics are very jerky and the controls are sometimes slow to respond. There are other games like this, too, that I have. Does the Wii run them much better? How about load times? Faster?? Sorry if these questions have already been asked. I haven't seen the threads.

KrazyKaiju Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 As far as I can tell, the Wii is identical to a Gamecube when in 'cube mode. It doesn't seem to enhance anything, if that's what you're wondering. Occasionally I experience some slowdown in Rogue Squadron II, but the GC slowed down in the same places. Everything else I've tried has run perfectly. If your GC game is running jerky it's probably because of bad coding, not the hardware. I don't expect the Wii would run it any better in that case.

nathanallan Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 (edited) I see. The other game I ran on it, Chamber of Secrets ran perfect. It seems that it's a newer game for slightly older hardware that is the GC. Azkaban was also available for the PS2 and I haven't read any reviews that say the problem is the same. Ah well. Thanks for the info. It might be dusty. I'm in the desert of El Paso, after all, everything gets dusty here. I can see if blowing it out helps.
