This might sound like a very weird question/topic… however…
At the moment I’m using 720P and I’m getting about 25-30FPS (depending on the action) in Mario Karts. Even at 30FPS you might notice a little/small sporadic slow downs (more likely my CPU being a bottleneck), regardless the game is totally playable. I was just wondering if this game on original Wii in 480P is as smooth as ‘butter’ or you might get some occasional frame drops on Wii system too.
At the end I’m wondering if I my hw wasn’t an issues, if Dolphin can emulate Wii @ 480P (trying to compare apples to apples) close to a perfection?
I believe some Wii games are 30FPS designed, so they should in theory look the same on Wii hardware. I’m not a big gamer person, but from what I understand you need at least 30FPS for the game to be playable, and 60FPS to have a nice smooth game experience. I remember friend of my was complaining about some of his PS3 games being only 30FPS.
