Does anyone know if playing your gamecube games on wii improve their graphics at all?

most likely not because the graphics on the gamecube games are written to the disc... the system cant really change the programming of the game or the polygons or anything

yea, if they were to improve the system would have to write to the disc, and it would have to be each game individually. so its almost impossible with the current technology that we have... maybe the next gen can do something about it, but as for now... aint happenin

For the N64, there are slight variations in pixels. They just added a little mod enhancement. I found it
just a bit differrent. Like take Zelda 64 for example, someone came out with a patch/mod that made a cell shade variation.
The N64 is no differrent than the one on the Wii, its exactly the same, but for Gamecube they have enhanced it.
Here are some pics of Djipi's mod:

Looks pretty cool huh? But thats an example of what Im talking about, the graphics on the gamecube for the wii arent exactly that much
differrent, that would be wayy too awesome, nintendo doesnt want things to be that awesome :wink:

Yeah but..didnt you read what I said, thats not how it looks on the Wii, its just an example of how patched the games can get. Its not THAT patched on the gamecube though,
and theres no differrence between the original N64 and the N64 for wii version. Theres just a slight differrence for gamecube (but thats what I noticed)
