I’d not recommend a wii u for Wii games actually, it has worse visual quality than an actual wii, the scaler in the wii u is horrible and destroys picture clarity
I have both and hadn't noticed much difference from the results of the HDMI output of the WiiU over a Wii using Component Cables through the same Elgato, but you're probably right about a direct feed to a TV, or adding better quality devices in the chain. I've played OG Xbox through the setup using the Official HD Pack for a long time and have low expectations probably.
Trust me, the difference is massive, especially when comparing to a Wii using component. Like I mentioned the internal scaler in the Wii u is horrid, it makes games blurry, zooms in and lowers brightness, a Wii over component is miles better.
With an early model Wii you obviously also have full GameCube back compat, with games and almost all peripherals, yes you can run GameCube through Nintendont in vwii on wii u but then we’re getting into grey areas
Yes......methods.......
