Super Mario Galaxy Goes HD

In recent months graphics whores have been emulating the Wii in "HD" 720p - the latest candidate being one of the console's most beautiful titles: Super Mario Galaxy.

Though Nintendo's space-themed platformer is, as it stands, visually impressive and sometimes truly mind-blowing in design, fans had said that it would have been even sweeter with that high-definition gloss.

Over on NeoGAF, using an emulator to run the game, they've produced a series of dazzling shots of Mario venturing through the various galaxies in higher resolution.

Thanks to Marzy for the tip.

With the result looking pretty spiffy, could Nintendo have easily included stronger visual capabilities in the Wii? Would you have preferred Mario Galaxy looking like this?
