DJ Clae Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 (edited) Thanks for all the info here, Citrus and Tanooki. I'm curious why it outputs 720p. Not sure if I'll get this or wait and see if a 1080p version comes out some day. Edited February 27, 2018 by DJ Clae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Clae Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Why does it output 720p if the games are 480p? Most HDTV's handle 720p pretty well, but that's not the screen's native resolution, so results may vary (lag, upscaling). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andromeda Stardust Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 afaik it outputs only at 480p. still the images are crisp and amazing. one potential downside is you can now see compression artifacts in fmv sequences (sunshine), normally masked by composite.

Tanooki Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 I think the output is 480p but spits it out on a 720p level connection or however that is properly worded. That is true about FMV, the compression involved to fit certain games in that 1.5GB space causes things CRTs masked to pop up. Those games that had plenty of room for video or just skipped that lameness entirely look stunning. Rogue Squadron 2 is a real stand out for insane quality.

Metal Ghost Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I recieved mine a couple of weeks ago and absolutely love it. Unfortunately (depending on how you look at it) like the day after I recieved mine my daughter all of a sudden wanted to play Paper Mario on N64, so I haven't spent a lot of time with it. But, it's a completely quality build and the buying experience was great. It took a while to receive mine, 10 weeks perhaps? But a weekly email was sent, without fail, updating everyone on the build process (the main delay seemed to be getting the cases from the manufacturer). What little time I've spent playing with it tells me it was money well spent. I can't wait to pop in some Rogue Squadron! Glad I sold my components when I did (though the purist in me misses them just a little). Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Phruby Posted March 14, 2018 Author Share Posted March 14, 2018 Rogue Squadron looks amazing on the GC with the plug. Any game that supports progressive scan looks better than most modern games. The plug breathed new life into my GC. It's highly recommended.
