Nintendo Eagerly Embraces the Next Generation of Technology!

[A Black Falcon]

Well actually in Japan the current method for hooking up high definition is using a computer moniter style hookup, instead of what has become the standard in the US. More segregation of the market... But anyway, the GCN in America used our standard, and the one in Japan used their's.

Right, RGB... also popular in Europe, I believe.

Oh, and that is the Digital Out port, right? The one Nintendo removed from newer GCs to save money?

Yeah, that really instills confidence in their plans for higher-quality video support...

Oh and, yeah in some games the blurriness can make the game look nicer, softer than it really is. That's a problem with HDTV too though right? Even running in lower resolution modes, it's still sharper...

Yes, that's true... just a price you pay for getting the latest stuff, I guess.

But, ya know, maybe they can create a blurring effect. Some sort of sharpness reducing dial or something...

They might be able to, sure, but it'd take some work, and I just doubt that the market for it is large enough for them to bother... though it'd be nice for stuff like most classic games (that is, just about anything pre-this-console-generation... :D).
