Where's the source regarding how the Nintendo Virtual Console works? Many VC games do not work via component cable and according to some Nintendo responses this would be due to the Wii outputting a non-standard resolution which seems to contradict the statement here that all games would be upscaled to 480p.

The Wii line doubles Mega Drive games (Runs them at 480i/576i), rather than 240p. Which is stupid, the Wii is perfectly capable of 240p in Composite and Component (Tested it with homebrew emulators that supported said output). I've 'corrected' the article, I'd like some proof the Virtual Console games even bother running at 240p. Flygon (talk) 01:41, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
If you are using a CRT TV with old games consoles (NTSC and PAL systems) you can actually see the blank scanlines if you look carefully. I think you might be slightly confused about how 240p/288p works, so I have added some references to the article as requested, which I hope will help explain it in greater detail.

I try to find out what resolution of 240p.
I can't found direct link on standart 240p.
Then I open video ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=G-n9p28Yh8w ), right click on video and select "Show video info", and change standards: 240p, 360p, 480p.
Resolution for 360p (640x480) in YouTube is different than in end of section "Sources" in "Low-definition television" article (540x480). — Preceding unsigned comment added by KaLeonis (talk • contribs) 10:41, 30 October 2011 (UTC)
I think the current iPod touch 4 has a 960x640 display. Should it be changed? Anish9807 t c 16:10, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

I do not think this is legal to link to a leaked Nintendo SDK document (VI.pdf) which is obviously protected by some NDA. The link seems to be dead but it would be wiser to remove it completely, even if it is a valid proof that Nintendo Game Cube & Wii (and a lot of VC titles) still supports 240p — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.69.241.89 (talk) 08:21, 15 October 2013 (UTC)
...I think, though I haven't yet confirmed, that this is 256x144 16:9 - would it be worth adding to the list alongside the 4:3 176x144, as one of the most easily accessible and likely to be experienced examples of truly low-definition video broadcasting that most internet users will come across? 193.63.174.211 (talk) 16:05, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
This article needs to be updated
YouTube offers 480 and its derivatives: 360 (75%) and 240 (50%). But European resolution 576 would have the derivatives 432 (75%), 288 (50%) and 144 (25%). Is this just a coincidence and YouTube did go for 10% of 1440? There's no source given, so no proof of either.
