VC SNES Emulation Question

Look at these pictures from DK Country 1 and 2. DKC is running on my SNES hooked into standard composite inputs. DKC2 is running off of my Wii's virtual console which is hooked into component inputs on the same TV. Why are the gradients between colors so much worse on the Wii than on the SNES? Do component cables make that big a difference in sharpness that they bring out the worst in old games? Notice how the ground and the characters, in particular, look natural and the gradients are smooth. Here's a closer view of the snakes:Notice the smooth transitions on the snakes? Now here is what DKC2 looks like on the Wii's VC: Notice the gradients on the boards of the crate below Dixie Kong. You can really tell the seperation of color on the VC, where-as on the SNES, they are smoothly transitioned. As a test, I might try to hook up my Wii with the composite cables that came with it and see if the problem persists. Are there any filtering modes that you can change? I know I'm asking too much probably, but I guess I'm just kind of annoyed that my old SNES looks better than the Wii's emulation of old games. It doesn't ruin the game experience, but I'd like for it to look a little better than it does. Any comments or thoughts? Every video I've seen on the 'net looks like the old SNES pictures. What gives? Does nobody use the composite cables, if indeed, that is the culprit? Thanks in advance! VC SNES Emulation Question
You're seeing it sharperIt doesn't have the blur anymoreVC SNES Emulation Question
Looks to me like the bottom pic is just too close.
Yeah, I've come to the same conclusion. Oh well, no biggie, I was just curious and thought that perhaps their SNES emulation was borked. Ah well, I guess I can always turn down the sharpness on my TV to reproduce the blur of old. :D
[QUOTE=''BubbyJello''] Looks to me like the bottom pic is just too close.[/QUOTE]I did that to show the difference in gradients between the SNES and Wii, that's all. If I show a fullscreen shot with my digital camera, the camera smooths it out and makes it look like the SNES, so it was hard to show the difference without zooming in.
Hopefully there won't be any Ness emulation issues when Earthbound hits the VC *rimshot*

I feel cheated out of both of em. So listen Nintendo, bring GBA games to the VC and get on it.
