Vid: 480p vs. 480i

Are you wondering if there’s any difference when it comes to having 480p or 480i while playing on your Wii? Well, YouTube user, TheFNGSpot, might be able to help you out. TheFNGSpot writes this as the description of the video he uploaded:

Side by side comparison of the Nintendo Wii playing Zelda: Twilight Princess on my Sony KDSR60XBR2 HD TV.. One Side is using component cables (480p) & the other is composite cables (480i).


If you look at the video above, the over-saturation of the reds and blacks on 480i is clearly noticeable.
Is this more reason to spend for those component cables? Your call, really. We do have to note that there have been reports of the Wii having a few problems with 480p.

Just a little something to help you folks out.
