Talk:Resolution

Is this page about internal resolution or output resolution?

For example, PS2 can output a 1080i signal (actually it's 576x960i stretched from a 576x480 frame) but I think the console can't reach 480 lines and goes 640x448 or any other sub480 res)

Regarding video display resolutions

Should we only list video modes that were officially supported, or also modes that could be enabled through homebrew (such as GS mode selector on PS2)? Phredreeke (talk) 14:18, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Restructure?

Currently everything is in one table. Maybe we should split it into different sections for readability. I'm thinking "2D consoles", "3D consoles" and "Handheld". Thoughts? Phredreeke (talk) 01:17, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

About the 3DS

The resolution with Hori HD is 800p but 480p also when the lower screen is in high res

I had to look up Hori HD, the increased resolution is horizontally only, so the video display resolution should still be 240p (honestly, if it wasn't for the slim PSPs having video out, I'd just delete that column on the handheld section). Since there are two screens, I'll change it to read 2x240p Phredreeke (talk) 22:31, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Resolution cleanup

In regard to the PS2, the GS Users Manual states (on page 23) that The frame buffer width must be a multiple of 64 pixels, something which several of the listed resolutions contradict. Also in regard to all the consoles, I'm not sure if resolutions exclusively used by homebrew or Linux should be listed (for the computers section I put in notes where software "bent" the limits. Maybe it's appropriate here too?) Phredreeke (talk) 01:28, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Mario kart 7 might be the only 3ds game to support 480p despite 240p screen of the 3ds

is this the only 3ds game {Mario kart 7} To support 480p I mean i was on maple treeway on MK7 and the wigglers looked Higher definition than on the wii Version And no im not counting the vaseline filter either

It's possible the 3DS version has a better quality model than the Wii version (a possible explanation is that the Wii need to be able to render four screens at once, the 3DS never has to render more than one screen). This does not have anything to do with the game's resolution. Phredreeke (talk) 19:05, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
