if I have a Wii, do I still want a Roku?

[Blake]

Just wondering if the base Wii will keep up with "smart tv" technology.

And I'm not planning on getting the new Wii U

The wii only does 480p. Most of the rokus do 720p, and some do 1080p (iirc). What do you want to do with it?

porn, obviously

Then 480p is enough unless you've got a butt pimple fetish

Ok, got the roku 3 and yes, the picture is noticeably better than on the wii.

I want something to play Netflix and Amazon. Was just going to get a google chrome cast, but it currently doesn't have Amazon.
