Changing the screen ratio does not change the Wii's output resolution, which remains at 640×480, even on the default [[PAL]] setting of {{s|wikipedia|576i}} 50Hz; only the way the picture is rendered within that resolution is changed. As a result, [[snapshots]] captured on a widescreen-set console will appear in a 4:3 aspect ratio if decrypted and viewed on a PC. | Changing the screen ratio does not change the Wii's output resolution, which remains at 640×480, even on the default [[PAL]] setting of {{s|wikipedia|576i}} 50Hz; only the way the picture is rendered within that resolution is changed.

This feature was added due to a significant amount of the population still using CRT television screens with a 4:3 aspect ratio during the launch of ''Brawl''.

A method to switch between 4:3 and 16:9 ratios did not return in {{Forwiiu}}, and instead, the selection between 4:3 and 16:9 is done by modifying the settings of the Wii U. Regardless, ''Smash 4'' itself does not support 4:3 ratio; if the Wii U is set to output at 4:3, the game will be [[wikipedia:Letterboxing_(filming)|letterboxed]] as to keep it at a 16:9 ratio. The [[Nintendo Switch]] has no way to adjust aspect ratios, meaning ''Ultimate'' can only be natively played at a 16:9 ratio. | A method to switch between 4:3 and 16:9 ratios did not return in {{Forwiiu}}, and instead, the selection between 4:3 and 16:9 is done by modifying the settings of the Wii U.
