While the Nintendo Wii can only run games at 480p, this emulator (Dolphin-x64-r4628) shows what New Super Mario Bros. looks like in 1080p — “settings were at 1080p 4AA 16AF DX9 mode.” Video after the break.

The footage has some obvious audio hiccups and the video freezes at 1:10 until 1:18. Beautiful nonetheless.
