i thought the issue was that you were saying the game isnt really wide screen, it just zoomed in on the full screen version, taking away some of the top and bottom of the picture.
the real issue your talking about then is just the resolution quality of the image?

Yeah, I suppose...
I guess taking pictures of the screen is not the best way to demonstrate the quality...
But yes, the Gamecube version is simply programmed with "pretend" widescreen... Black bars at the top and bottom of the screen simply put there for effect, despite the fact that there is no actual 16:9 setting for widescreen TVs...
The Wii version has the same bars when running in standard 4:3 mode...
The PS2 version
supposidely has true 16:9 widescreen, though I don't own it so I havn't tested it, but the Wii version was said (by IGN and various other reviews) to also have true 16:9... But I switched back and forth between the two settings a number of times (either with my TV zooming in on the 4:3 picture, or the Wii displaying the "true 16:9 widescreen"), and it's the exact same thing... Both are slightly blurred and jaggy due to the zoom...
