Old Console Upscale?
TheBlueEditor:
I just wanted to know what is the best video upscaler to 1080p for any console like the NES-Wii. I want the image to look clean and neat while not losing anything. Can anyone help?
segamer:
The Best upscaler for Wii games is a Wii U.
For old games, it's a Retron 5.
or
Buy scart cables and use a scart to HDMI converter. That is my opinion.
Jeff:
Upscaling won't do a bit of good unless you're getting an RGB, component, or maybe s-video signal out of it. Garbage in garbage out is the phrase I think. Just get the best video output you can and let your TV handle it.

If you have the cash, XRGB Mini is the way to go.
I'm currently saving up for one, but be warned, you will be spending around $400. It's really expensive, but it seems to be the one everyone else recommends.
Here's a vid of it in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnMWDEzJv3Q
You could go for a SCART-to-HDMI thingie, which was my first plan, but many people have recommended against that. It is a lot cheaper, but if you are American, can get confusing. Make sure you get a SCART cable that supports NTSC - if it doesn't say it, it probably doesn't.
