Ah, so pirating = hacking now?

Bleh, didn't look much better to me, it looked a bit sharper, but no where near what I got on a PC years ago, and not a huge difference from the n64.(main difference was much sharper text)

It's not pirating if you own all said software And it's a bit of a hack considering you can't burn Gamecube discs and have to load the game via your PC.

And of course, the emulators on PC can use higher resolutions/VGA monitors.

Hmm, so since when does owning a copy of a software give you the right to download a modified version of it off the Internet and use it for a purpose it wasn't meant for, along with other software that's being used in a way it wasn't meant to be? Ah well, so be it.

And even at 640x480, I'd say Ultra64 looks better, I think the filtering may just be stronger or the image output more crisp.(some gamecube games have crisp outputs, the emulated n64 games I've played are not among them)

It doesn't require you to download any Nintendo software at all. You can do everything needed on your own. The only way it could be piracy is if you download something you don't own a copy of.

I think any improvements you see in PC emulators is due to the VGA output instead of TV.

Either way its still not "piracy" AFAICS.

EDIT: Hmm yeah this should stay on topic, I was going to delete this post but the forum won't let me for some reason..

I've had my gamecube hooked up both to a TV with component inputs and a VGA monitor, it never looked close, but it could just be that the output quality of the gamecube is significantly lower than what video cards could do. However, some games do come out looking quite sharp, like super smash bros melee, so obviously the gamecube is capable of outputting PC like images if desired.

Hmm, revolution will have VGA output, I wonder how well it will handle that. For that matter, will it have a VGA port on the system, or an external dongle, or generic video out port? It could really backfire on nintendo if they include official vga support, but don't require all games to have a certain image quality standard.
