Can i connect my nintendo wii to my projector?

Question

I have a projector box which hangs from the ceiling and i want to add my wii to it, it has a pin plug and 2 usb ports in the back of the projector can it be done and what leads can i get if any.

Answer 1

yeah of course you can but am not sure the wire will be long enough, all you need to do is plug the yellow component lead into the projector and the red and white av leads into a amp for sound, if the lead is not long enough go to maplins and buy an extention component lead, i've had the wii hooked up to mine several times and wii sports bowling and gold is wicked am gonna try tiger woods out soon good luck and all the best peace ill phill..

Answer 2

The Wii has component, composite and S-video outputs. The projector probably has a composite and VGA, and maybe DVI or HDMI (I'm guessing the USB ports you report ar actually HDMI ... but it doesn't matter because you can't use them) and component.

So ... either use a long enough RCA male to RCA male (yellow jack) to connect composite, or use an S-video (the multi hole round jack) cable.

For the best picture use component (3 RCA jacks coded red/blue/green) if available.

Video quality (in increasing order) is composite, S-video, component.

Happy watching.

Answer 3

The USB ports will not matter.  If your projector has the component cables that you would usually use for the tv, than yes.  If not, than no.
