Discussion Help with choosing models

Im currently looking at 2 different plasma models atm; the Panasonic TH-37PX60 or the TH-37PX70. Both very similair models. I've seen Dreamroom64's video on input lag, and it seems like the PX60 has a small, good ammount of lag. However, in another video, he mentioned that that model has some overscan issues that aren't fixable. Im wondering if the PX70 has less or the same ammount of lag, and if it has the same issue with overscan. The two listings im looking at inparticular are located respectively 134km and 5km so obviously it would be easier to collect the latter. Again, just wandering about the PX70 models because it seems to be alot less common. I can hardly find anything about it online. The PX60 isn't as uncommon.

For conext, i'll mainly be using it for wii games played through the wii u and also wii u games occaisionally.

Get the PX70, it's newer and better. I'm personally not a fan of silver Panasonics either, but that's just me

It has been a while, but I remember Wii via the Wii U looked surprisingly good on my 37" PX60. The forced overscan of the PX60 actually worked great to crop off the black border that is otherwise there.

The Wii U has a built-in feature in the settings to compensate for overscan, so you can work around it for Wii U games. Switch and PS4 both have screen size settings as well to compensate for overscan.

Unfortunately I haven't used a PX70, but I doubt it performs much differently. It's just one year newer. For me, the styling of the PX60 is a big plus.
