A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

It has been a while since the last one. So...

Tell us what game you are currently, or recently played, greater than 6+ months old.

If the game happens to be on sale, a link would be a plus.

Neither the Wii nor the Wii U use emulation. Both have the hardware to play GC games natively.

But keep in mind that the Wii U's upscale of SD content is not that great. It wont necessarily look better than using a Wii over component cables.

You could get an upscaler, but you know, 480p or 480i is never gonna look good on a 1080p or 4k display. You have the choice between very blurry, kinda blurry, or really sharp and pixelated. Most prefer the latter, but none look truly great I'd say.
