[quote name='crunchewy']Actually you don't have to do that on the Gamecube either. At least, once you have held in B once, and turned on Progressive scan for a compatible game, you never have to do it again, even for other progressive scan games, even ones you get later on. Most people presume that you have to hold in B every time, but I can verify that this isn't actually necessary. Holding in B gives you the choice to turn it off or on, but if you don't hold in B at power up it stays at what you used last time. Also the Gamecube manual states this.[/QUOTE]
Weird. Over at my dad's house, he had the Gamecube w/ progressive scan. We had to do it every time on his or it wouldn't kick over. Don't know why. :/
At any rate, it's a good deal if you don't have a Wii yet.
