Is 480i the same as 240p?

480i is a variation of 240p, in the sense that both write almost 16000 lines per second and almost 60 fields per second. The difference is that 240p writes the same field twice, whereas 480i writes every second field in the space between the lines of the first field.

Is 480p better than 480i wii?
480i is a 240p signal that has essentially been line doubled. 480p is literally double the resolution, as it uses a proper 480 scan lines. It's totally worth the upgrade, and Wii Component cables can be had for pretty cheap.

Does gamecube do 240p?
Also that's why the GameCube and Wii do not have a 240p output mode per se, since it's still 480i. Almost all virtual console games run in double-strike, since that's the best way to render classic games on analog tvs.
