Did you know? When Super Smash Bros Brawl originally released on the Wii, a large amount of consoles that had been purchased near the release of the wii were unable to play the thicker Brawl disc and had to be sent to Nintendo to be configured. I was one of those affected.
It wasn't about the thickness, as the discs were of same dimensions. Brawl was the first Dual Layer game to be released, almost doubling the data a game had access to. Brawl was simple the largest game to be released up to that point.
@@xmine08 This was the issue. My Wii was poopin' out right around when Brawl came out, so it was a lucky way for me to get it repaired for free, as it was also having read errors on single layered games and certainly couldn't handle Brawl.
They wouldn't have been allowed to call it that. "DVD" is a copyrighted, proprietary name, and you can't fuse your own copyrighted name (Wii) with someone else's copyrighted name (DVD). They would've had to call it "Wii DVD."
@MultiTarded Nintendo has always been like that, or do you not remember R.O.B.? They've always considered themselves more of a toy company, and the fact they don't take themselves so seriously is what makes them stand out. We don't need another try hard tech company with a mildly different version of the same box.
I swear that’s like the fourth time DYKGaming has informed me the word “spastic” had to be removed from the European release of Mario Party 8. Jesus Christ....
The HDMI port and DVD-player functionality would have been so damn nice addons. Shame they never implemented those. Wii could have been the perfect console back then, despite being really good overall.
Imagine the Wii in HD with HDDVD/Blu-ray support and all the third-party games... It would have completely obliterated the Xbox 360 and PS3 lol. I like to think that Nintendo was playing it safe, because it still sold the most units of that generation, even with all of its hardware drawbacks.
Even 720p on the OG Wii would have been really nice, I would honestly have cared less about DVD playback, as at least in my house we already had several DVD players and even DVD/VHS combo units laying around by the time of the Wii's release, and all our computers had DVD-RW burners. So Netflix, Hulu Plus, RUclips, and web surfing at 720p would have been awesome, let alone gaming.
Fr. Too much Nintendo. Y'all seem to be running on fuems too as far as ideas go... Recycling old topics even in and throwing them in compilation videos just for filler and so on... Start on more Sony topics/franchises now. Love these guys but you can definitely tell they're big Nintendo fanboys I mean it is run by NormalBoots after all.. But they dont hide that well lmao.. Which is not a bad thing for other Nintendo fanboys but someone like me who likes all consoles... And isnt just some blind loyalist. I'm bored with being forcefed the same Sega/Nintendo trivia after all these years...
Yes. Wii discs are essentially just modified DVDs already. The only issue stopping them would be to pay for the licensing and such. Hence the supposed "DVD Wiis" costing more even though they have no additional hardware.
Nintendo makes baffling censorship decisions pretty often....like Xenoblade Chronicles X removing the breast slider from character creation ( I mean it's not an inherently inappropriate thing in general... ) or Fatal Frame 5 replacing the sexy lingerie & swimsuit costumes with a Zelda costume & Samus's Zero Suit ( it's an M rated game and as far as I can tell the characters are age appropriate so wtf ) or Mai Shiranui being blocked from Spirit status in Ultimate because "Smash is for good boys & girls"....
@@newageBoundhippie I heard that last bit about Smashi was changed for the translation. Apparently in the original Japanese direct, Sakurai just outright said it was for the sake of not raising the CERO age rating (which is basically Japan's ESRB).
I played Wii Boxing long enough that my arms would be burning for the rest of the day. Then Punch Out!! came out, and I nearly laid myself out overplaying it.
It actually doesn’t take that much swinging to swing a tennis racket in Wii Sports. It’s how much speed you put into it your remote, not how long does the swing take.
Great video! I used to be involved with the Homebrew scene of the Wii back in the day. As far as I knew, other than the DVD functionality, The Wii actually was able to play DivX formats as well. Even though the HD aspect performed pretty badly, you should've seen my 10 y/o face when i got a HD video to even play.
Though I'm not a fan of the term "vibing," I appreciate putting the thought in my head about a number of employees bouncing to the music like that one video of Tom Nook.
I do appreciate Nintendo’s decision on keep the AV Cables on the Wii, I actually older TVs which had them. HDMI is cool and all but plugging in the Red, Yellow and White Cables always made me feel like a Technician as a kid. All these spoiled kids with their HDMI Cables don’t know about them AV Cable Days.
Even the Wii U still has AV support! Which means the ruleset for my eventual Lego City Undercover Without the TV run has to be slightly more semantic-proof.
That's because limitations often forces an increase in creativity. The games can't look amazing by upping the detail and polygon count, so they have to work extra hard on the style. Limitations sometimes lead to better ideas as creators are forced to rethink and re-prioritize. Without limitations, Mario wouldn't have his classic look and Samus wouldn't have her morph ball.
10:23 - I think the replacement of the Nintendo 64 with a fully expanded Sega Mega Drive for the Playstation version of No More Heroes is a brilliant touch, since I have the very same setup at home!
So Nintendo did not make the Wii HD compatible because most people did not have HD TVs and they thought that people should not have to buy a new TV just to play a new console? That doesn't make much sense since the Xbox 360 was released a year earlier and it was both HD and SD compatible, even though without HDMI at first. Also, the Wii U could be played on SD TVs both with composite and RGB Scart. Making a console HD compatible doesn't mean that it has to be HD exclusive.
Part of me realizes that Nintendo already built up their early wii games like Mario Galaxy, Smash Bros Brawl, and especially Twilight Princess with av output in mind. They were probably too lazy to upscale or do something. Still, early gen ps3 games look just as muddy as wii games tbh
Oh my God. The blue disk light on the Wii that lit up when you received a message. Jeez, that brings me back. Such a stupid little feature to feel nostalgia for...but the Wii was my first computer. I was 12 years old. I didn't have a phone. I didn't have a computer. But in my bedroom, I had the Wii, a USB keyboard, and a CRT. That was how I browsed the internet. Many of my friends were internet friends, and I remember feeling so excited every time I saw that blue light turn on. Nowadays I am so desensitized to notifications that I either don't notice them or outright ignore them. But still, it kinda saddens me as I look across my room at my Wii, still plugged in and hooked up to a CRT, and realize that I haven't seen that blue light come on in nearly 10 years.
Fun fact about the Arkham Asylum Wii game: That was not a pitch. That was actually green lit. It got far enough that there was QA testing going on. As of WHY it was cancelled; Red Fly/Rocksteady pretty much pissed Nintendo off because so many dev kits were BRICKED by that project. At that time, dev kits were not cheap either.
I didn't get an HDTV until I got a PS4, and even then, it was primarily because PS4 didn't have an option for standard definition, and considering that 2013 was near the end of Wii's life, I think it was a fine decision.
It was planned to have a DVD Player, huh? Well in contrast PS4 Pro doesn't have a 4K Bluray Player. I heard the reason for this was because people are watching 4K movies Online more than on 4K Bluray. 3:17- There was gonna be Devil May Cry on Wii? I never got a Wii U. I ended up getting PS4 and Nintendo Switch instead.
Heard about the DVD playback with those covering homebrew but great to see it here in a DYKG video. Interesting though that the ones that made Blu-Ray don't bother with the functionality in their own gaming systems, makes sense though as that is the way things are going, but while I don't use the PS3 for Blu-Ray (even though I could) I use the Xbox One's Blu-Ray app (which I wish was on the system not an optional thing you get from the Microsoft Store for free) and it works fine just like using the 360 for DVD over the PS2. I've not tried the PS4 for Blu-ray/DVD playback. Sure I could use a PC but if I'm away from it, it would be nice if I bring the system, get a film/tv series and test it out. But then again it took how long for CD playback, I remember hearing that people were requesting it around update 2.0 or so, but never heard if it was added later. I find consoles adding CD/DVD playback makes things much easier if I want to use it on occasion and don't want a DVD/Blu-Ray player (so not having so many different devices under the TV if I have other consoles there) as I like to play the disk not use streaming services that often (I go between both depending on what is accessible at the time but prefer the disks as sometimes the extra episodes (Anime OVAs, not likely the Specials :( ), and bonus features can be on there while the Streaming Service doesn't have that [besides having it for offline use], but when they don't have it on the disk due to what the licensing company does with it then obviously that makes things awkward).
Only problem with that is he becomes compunctious with the job and jaded to the whole thing as the game goes on, and is nearing nihilism when Holly commits suicide because he refused to kill her. It could work if it became more and more like blood until it's like it is as the game goes on though.
@@djd-cepticon My main Wii was originally white, but has a black Vinyl skin to match my setup better, and at almost 40 years old I could care less about LED/RGB "gamer" that's so bright it nearly blinds you, and could light up an airport runway bling.
I think Wii with component out on a 480p display looks great. It looks "older" than PS3 and X360, but I'd say those consoles jumped to HD a tad too soon, 15-25fps are way too common on those.
@@BenjiLee53 I'd say they almost mastered that console by the end. Phantom Pain and Rise of the Tomb Raider in particular looked rather amazing for the 360. But that took almost a console generation to happen. More to my point of perhaps going HD a little too soon.
I still had a Crt Tv when I first brought the Wii in June of 2007, however in the following September I brought an LCD Tv. Now though it is easy to overlook it's lack of HD as it just being an older system, rather than being outdated like it felt in the late 00s and early 10s.
Yeah, I mostly used my Wii just to play Gamecube games anyway, wich didn't have HD either. So even back in 2010 I already considered it a retro console anyway. And as such, I needed to have it with an appropiate color scheme, not this fake-futuristic black/white nonsense. *25th Mario Anniversary happens* EEEEEEEECK!!!
You kinda forget that Nintendo was the first to have a speaker in their controller. Now that the PS4's got it too, you forget how ahead of time they were with that. Honestly. Haven't touched a Wii game that utilized it heavily in so long that I kinda forgot. Lol
Hearing that you can re-enable DVD playback through homebrew just blew my effing mind... too bad the whole reason I home-brewed my wii was because the disc-drive broke :^)
The doctor that wrote a paper about "Wii-Itus" seems like something else has to be wrong with him if swinging a fucking remote is putting him in to a state of nonstop pain.
The first is not entirely true. Yes, they intended to put DVD playback and planned to release a updated model with it added, problem is that not all Wii can play DVDs through homebrew. After a year or so after production they changed the drive assembly to a new model that refuse to run anything that is not a Gamecube or Wii disc, even with homebrew apps, confirming that they gave up in their efforts to add DVD playback entirely.

Only problem with that is he becomes compunctious with the job and jaded to the whole thing as the game goes on, and is nearing nihilism when Holly commits suicide because he refused to kill her. It could work if it became more and more like blood until it's like it is as the game goes on though.
Wii remote Brawl really hits different because of the speaker in the remote
"the original Devil may cry" THAT IS DMC3 DANTE FIGHTING A DMC1 ENEMY! WHAT IS THIS AND WHERE DO I FIND MORE OF IT!?
When I heard "Seamen" I had to pause to laugh a ton
Wii isn't considered exercise......................... UM Wii Sports & Wii Fit!!
“Wii-itis” How big of a dork do you have to be...?! 🤣
I mean, he did injure himself playing wii sports lol
I guess that makes me a dork then, as I got tendinitis (tennis elbow) playing many, many hours of wii tennis to help me
stay in shape.
Repinerator NotABot! Lol
And I got sore only once from playing Wii Boxing. Because I only played it once.
Gabe Puratekuta LOL!
7:36 "A prime example..."
*I see what you did there...*
*Insert Rim shot here*
Imagine having to “take a break” from wii in order to make a full physical recovery
It's weird that the Wii looks so modern that it wouldn't even look odd in a setup today.
And the black version even more so, it just goes to show what good design, and function can do.
Mine is custom white and black with an LED window haha
@@djd-cepticon My main Wii was originally white, but has a black Vinyl skin to match my setup better, and at almost 40 years old I could care less about LED/RGB "gamer" that's so bright it nearly blinds you, and could light up an airport runway bling.
I think Wii with component out on a 480p display looks great.
It looks "older" than PS3 and X360, but I'd say those consoles jumped to HD a tad too soon, 15-25fps are way too common on those.
I was gonna argue until you brought up the framerate.
@@julianx2rl you can really tell the difference between early and late games on the X360 in terms of frame rate.
Yes but back then it was just cool to own one and have ‘HD’ although most people still used the damn AV 3 colour cables
@@Alexander_l322 Yeah I remember that aspect to it, and yeah, some of those people would still use AV out. Kinda funny.
@@BenjiLee53 I'd say they almost mastered that console by the end. Phantom Pain and Rise of the Tomb Raider in particular looked rather amazing for the 360.
But that took almost a console generation to happen. More to my point of perhaps going HD a little too soon.
Did you know that-
IS THAT RETURN TO DREAMLAND MUSIC?
1:42 There is a mod that can get the Wii to run in HD 720p, but it's not easy to do and needs a specific Wii.
Did you know the Wii had a child called the Wii U
And unfortunately the father was the Virtual Boy
The Wii U also has a cousin. His name is the Switch.
Well. This video made me miss Wii Party. Especially when the main menu song started playing at the end of the video.
The Wii had many games including Sonic And The Secret Ring, Mario Kart Wii, London Taxi and more! I know this from the Wikapedia
I still had a Crt Tv when I first brought the Wii in June of 2007, however in the following September I brought an LCD Tv. Now though it is easy to overlook it's lack of HD as it just being an older system, rather than being outdated like it felt in the late 00s and early 10s.
Yeah, I mostly used my Wii just to play Gamecube games anyway, wich didn't have HD either.
So even back in 2010 I already considered it a retro console anyway.
And as such, I needed to have it with an appropiate color scheme, not this fake-futuristic black/white nonsense.
*25th Mario Anniversary happens*
EEEEEEEECK!!!
Honestly if Skyward Sword was in HD I would've kept playing it...
i have an OG wii that has dvd capabilities before they changed the dvd drive to only read gc and wii games
I'd always figured the Wii didnt play DVDs just as much because they didnt want people killing the motors in the disc drive early.
Who remembers Wiiware? Man, Bit Trip Core and Runner was amazing!
If the Wii played movie DVD, it would be on the same level as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 at the time
@Thistle Flower True
Still technologically behind, PS3 could play BlueRay. The Xbox 360 could play HDDVD with an add on but that format failed so that didn't matter.
I wish I could go back in time to Christmas morning 2006 when my sister and I unboxed our brand new Nintendo Wii. What a magical time.
Press 'F' to pay respects to the Wii Shop Channel.
(I know, I'm late, but still)

Literally I was playing Pikmin 2 in my Wii some hours ago , only to find my RUclips recommendations fulled of videos about Wii LOL
You kinda forget that Nintendo was the first to have a speaker in their controller. Now that the PS4's got it too, you forget how ahead of time they were with that. Honestly.
Haven't touched a Wii game that utilized it heavily in so long that I kinda forgot. Lol
Wii was one of my first consoles along with Dreamcast and PS3
Hearing that you can re-enable DVD playback through homebrew just blew my effing mind... too bad the whole reason I home-brewed my wii was because the disc-drive broke :^)
I did not think I’d hear about One Piece Unlimited Adventure today, but I’m happy I did
I dunno why they cared about hd output. The first Gen xbox 360 didnt have HDMI out either
Geez that e3 footage of the vitality sensor looks like a bit from a tv show
My only regret is... I have... Wii-itis...
I’m glad the Wii was standard definition. I didn’t have an HD TV until 2017.
it’s funny because in a standard wii, when you modify it’s software (not even hardware) you CAN play dvds
*FOR THE LAST TIME, ITS SEA MAN!*
*S E A M A N !*
Censorship will never cease to offend me, far more than any uncensored media.
6:20 He also made the far superior SimTower clone, YootTower.
The n7nchuck is more like a N64 controller... Not a Gamecube
6:06 I think you mean the Viz translation of the manga. See also: JJBA All-Star Battle and Eyes of Heaven.
The doctor that wrote a paper about "Wii-Itus" seems like something else has to be wrong with him if swinging a fucking remote is putting him in to a state of nonstop pain.
The first is not entirely true. Yes, they intended to put DVD playback and planned to release a updated model with it added, problem is that not all Wii can play DVDs through homebrew. After a year or so after production they changed the drive assembly to a new model that refuse to run anything that is not a Gamecube or Wii disc, even with homebrew apps, confirming that they gave up in their efforts to add DVD playback entirely.
If all wireless devices paired as easily as the Wii remote with the Wii did, the world would be a utopia
I'm sure they sold both version of No More Heroes over in the UK. I remember playing the full gore edit way before the PS3 release.
No More Heroes 3..... I really cant wait.....
