the resolution does not matter, thats only graphic card work. you can get a really cheap card (<100$) that can do 1080p without any problem.
what matters is the cpu.
for the games i testet (all gc), it would be usefull to have a core 2 cpu(or i7) with 5-6 ghz to run allways at full speed. i got a 3ghz c2d and some games break down to half speed sometimes.
But thats impossible, as 3,33ghz is the highest you can buy and even overclocked not much more then 4ghz can be reached for 24/7 work.
And wii games need even more speed then gc ones.
i doubt that in the next 5 years there will be a cpu buyable that can play ALL wii games at full speed.
