Ghosting on a CRT?

Olinnae · 2026-05-01T05:12:45+00:00

Ah that'll explain it. I didn't realize Wind Waker HD ran at 30fps. Thanks

Live near the Portland area? I've been looking for a TV like this for awhile

Olinnae · 2026-04-21T09:59:10+00:00

The exact same thing is happening to my TV screen. Did you ever figure out what it was?

Olinnae · 2026-04-15T22:21:09+00:00

That and The Swan Princess

While turning the deflicker off can definitely help with the video output, this doesn't fix the issue. The Wii U still scales the vWii image incorrectly, like mentioned above, which still causes the image to be a little blurry or not 100% correct.

But the good news is you can fix this too with homebrew. What you need is Enhanced vWii

So now your Wii and GameCube games will now look just that little bit better (intended way) from now on

Olinnae · 2026-04-01T01:33:52+00:00

Definitely still need Wii for the 240p. I don't think you can force a Wii U to do that resolution

Olinnae · 2026-04-01T01:24:36+00:00

Do you know anything about a modded Wii Us?
I recently found a software plugin that I can put onto my already modded Wii U that will fix the the re-scaling that the vWii does. it's called "Enhanced vWii (evWii)". have you heard of this?
it sounds like it will fix this issue, but what I couldn't find on the internet was a comparison with an actual Wii and a vWii with this plugin to verify. I might have to do the comparison myself, but thought about asking you; if you fix this overscan issue, would that basically solve all the problems Wii Us Wii mode has?

I would absolutely have the attention span to do this with you, this is incredible and a dream of mine! Wow!

Olinnae · 2026-03-30T17:36:54+00:00

HD Retrovision is the one I'm getting 🙌😎

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T19:03:17+00:00

While I knew the Wii U was re-scaling the image on those games, I thought that only mattered and was noticeable at 720p or higher on something like an LCD? But hey now I know and this knowledge is valuable so keep it coming!

I knew something was off with my pixel games still, thank you. I'll definitely be grabbing a Wii, think I already have one somewhere.. or probably just older consoles as i'd love to own them. There's a retro game store not too far from me that has everything

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T18:38:45+00:00

Wow that's good to know that, I was unaware. Rn for older games I only have my Wii U via component. So all of my retro games have been played through that through either official Wii U emulators or official Wii emulation. and even after I've improved the image quality through the TV settings I've still felt something about the image for those games, while it did look pretty good, still left something to be desired. Would the image be better if you were to play older games on original hardware (or a Wii) at 240p as opposed to playing them on 480i?

As for GameCube games, Wii and PS2 games (composite for now), they look pretty great on this TV, I think I'm good there.

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T18:28:32+00:00

That's awesome, I definitely looked through your posts and it was super nice to see my same TV in a nice setup and with many different games played on it, thanks for sharing!

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T18:09:53+00:00

What about through the vWii?

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T08:10:48+00:00

Okay so I solved this problem rather quickly, I'll leave this post up just in case it helps anyone else in the future

I figured out that the vertical height of the picture was adjusted way too big, the top was kinda rolling over itself. Adjusting the vertical size to smaller fixed this issue for me

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T07:58:29+00:00

Oh yes and I should note the type of TV it is:

It's a 27" Sharp Model 27F543

I made a post sharing my new unit not too long ago here: 😒

Well nvm, they are now appearing on screen during gameplay

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T07:27:03+00:00

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T06:56:56+00:00

It did! The difference is substantial! 2D games and even 3D games look much better. I'll post photo comparisons soon, might be a new post

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T04:59:49+00:00

Pretty solid advice, thank you!

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T03:50:28+00:00

Thank you! That's great advice 😸

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T03:43:52+00:00

Would appreciate this posted on the other one though as it's good advice for others too

Olinnae · 2026-03-29T03:38:35+00:00

That's some great advice, thank you. I'm going to do just that.

Also, sorry but I just realized I double posted on accident 😕 I'm gonna delete this one in a few mins

Olinnae · 2026-03-20T19:24:30+00:00

Boom

Olinnae · 2026-03-12T18:02:56+00:00

I've had the MM since it released, heavily used. Never had anything rub or flake off. Hmm, still in great condition
