Pikmin (Wii Version) Lag - RegalPixelKing - 10-23-2016
So I decided to stick my hand the Pikmin series, after playing it a bit, I really enjoyed it, however the Wii version seems to give me some big problems with it lagging. It lags and drops 5-10 frames whenever when I am in a body of water or when I use geyser to go up a steep incline.
Now I tested the Gamecube version of the game, and these problems don't happen in this version of the game, it is always running at 30fps at all times, no problem.
The Wii version normally runs at 30fps, except for the times that I noted above.
I tried every backend and lowering the internal resolution and it did not seem to make any difference.
The reason that I want to play the Wii version over the Gamecube version is because I prefer how the motion controls are integrated into the game and the 16:9 aspect ratio.
