Which one should i get for converting Nintendo Wii Composite Video to HDMI? Will the less expensive Model: VHD-PNC work?

This product is great and would work perfectly for you but it is more of a switch board or mixer as in you can have lots of inputs and then one hdmi output. Hope this helps.

The 'Wii 2 HDMI' here on Amazon should serve your purpose. There are a bunch of these being made now, but the 'LKV6000' mini from Lenkeng is the best and is $22 on eBay. You shouldn't pay more than 30-40 bucks, I think.

You can't convert to HDMI from component. You need a HDMI output to HDMI input. Buy a new source unit. Oh, only use Revision 1.4 HDMI Cables to support 3D speed.

It doesn't specify so I think it'd 've safe to say no. I do not own a wiiU, but the ports do look similar. However, WiiU is an HD system so I doubt they have the same ports, and this converter would NOT allow for your WiiU to display in HD.

It may or may not be helpful to you. I was successful in using the component video with the Wii. See if you can use the component video input to the tv using a different source other than the XBox 360 if you have not tried that already. If another source works, then it's definitely a setting in the Xbox as j.Howser has suggested.

I specifically bought this converter so that I could hook up my original Wii to my A/V receiver over HDMI. I am not hooked up to a 4K source, but my receiver is a newer Yamaha HDMI receiver and this product let me easily connect the Wii to it. The picture and sound are both great.

Yup, it'll work. I have the HDMI cable plugged into the adapter and a Wii U, and a attached to a VGA cable plugged into the adapter and a computer monitor. I have an auxiliary cable plugged into the adapter and into an amplifier.So yeah, that's my setup and it works perfectly! As long as you have HDMI and VGA slots it should all work.

I know that this TV support 1080p but can this also reproduce 480p so i can play my Nintendo Wii?

Go to amazon, type in "HDMI cord," and buy one that is under $5. There is no difference between expensive an inexpensive HDMI cords. As it is a digital connection, there is simply a pass-through of information with no manipulation at all.Hope this helps!

Yes it is possible but just with component cables, wii is not hdmi compatible

Hey my Friend, Thanks for your imput. Just want to get a clear understanding about HDMI and Composite connection differences. My HDTV is 3 years old with composite only connection. Will HD DVD give me 1080i reception capabilty. I now have the Dish 622 reciever and get HD quality no problem. Simply put does the Toshiba HD-A1 HDDVD player have composite connections along with HDMI. Hope I've made myself clear enough. Thanks Much ... RD

I use component cables for my Wii. Its a slight upgrade from the regular av cables but my pictures looks pretty decent, maabe adjust your tv setting? I haven't gotten it yet, but I'm eyeing this as a solution http://www.microcenter.com/product/385577/Component_Video_and_Audio_to_HDMI_ConverterMy Wii looks ok as I stated, the reason I looked into the Portta was for my PS2, and it is the reason I'm going to get the SIIG. I know it is a bit pricey, but for me it will be worth it, instead of constantly switching cables in and out - keep in mind I have 3 HDMI ports and 2 HDMI splitters, bit I just have a lot of components and the SGIII would save me a headache anytime I wanna play with my PS2.

It's not an HDMI to component converter. If it were, then you would turn an HDMI signal into a Component signal so that you could plug an HDMI only output device into a Component input on your TV. This particular box does the opposite. It will allow you to plug in a Component only output device (such as a Wii Console with the official component cable) into a screen that only has HDMI ports open, such as a monitor. And trust me, if we are looking at the same model, the latter is the case. I own one, I have for around 6 months now and this one definitely only goes one way: Component to HDMI.

I Nintendo Wii and I connected the old audio/video cable to HD. After there I change the source HMI to AV.

If you have an older (non-HD tv), using the HDMI is pointless, just use the best hookup your tv DOES have, which would probably be Composite (the red/blue/green cable), followed by S-Video if it's even older, or the component (yellow) cable as your last resort.Component cables will transfer up to 1080i quality, and will be more than enough for a standard CRT television.

I think you want to go the other way. This item converts component signals to HDMI. You want to go from HDMI to RGB (which by the way is not the same as Component).

Many TVs have a component input location the is made up of five ports. There are 3 for the 3 colors the tv displays and 2 for audio of course. If your TV does not have a place to plug in the component cables, you will need to get a converter. Your TV probably has and hdmi input. If not, just stick with the composite cable. The wii isn't a high definition device anyway so you won't display in 1080p ever with it. These cables do work for Wii U.

I have tried this with the Wii U, the Xbox 360, and AppleTV. They all worked equally poorly, so I think the Wii U is "supported". My problem was that the picture dropped out about once a minute, regardless of source. So it was unusable. Maybe some problem between this device and my projector. I got another hdmi audio extractor (KanexPro) which does work perfectly for these three devices.
