Wii-U thoughts so far

What I'm seeing is that you lefties need to stop being counter culture and just use your right hand like everyone else.

I use a mouse right-handed like most non-witches.

So do I. But that's how I grew up. I didn't grow up writing with my right hand so using a stylus with it is weird and uncomfortable. AND NOT VERY ACCURATE, haha..

Boo on you people. I use ambidexterous trackballs and am decently good in either hand at operation and in some games. And sometimes on two PCs at once.

The only time I use a mouse nowadays is in gaming, and then I use an ambidexterous mouse, but in my right hand, since that is how PCs have always been.

[ZenErik]

Yea. I have a Razr mouse for the zero PC games I am currently playing. I pretty much always use the trackpad on my Mac. I prefer it over a mouse for everything except games. Use it with either hand. The gestures are fantastic.

And even when I play PC games I usually am using an arcade stick or controller because I mainly play doujin shmups on my laptop.

How would you guys rate the up-conversion of Wii games on a Wii U? Just curious, as I don't own one myself, but find that to be one of the more appealing features the console offers.

[Reprise]

I don't know if it up-converts? It certainly doesn't look as pretty as Dolphin, but Wii games do look a hell of a lot better on the Wii U than they did on our Wii. But that may mostly be because my Girlfriend insisted on not upgrading from the crappy composite cable that came with the system.

When did they allow Wii upscaling? Last I tried the Wii games looked worse on my Wii U..

[ZenErik]

My Wii games look better on the Wii U because the component outputs on my TV are slightly blurry compared to HDMI.

[Cronozilla]

The image upscaling is pretty good. It'll upscale the output to 1080P and it looks about the same quality as the games do coming out of the Wii, just depends on what quality of scaling you're used to on your TV while using Wii.

On my set, it only allows overscan adjustment if you're using HDMI, so I'm happier playing some Wii games on Wii U as a result. (Everything used to put black borders all over my plasma set)
