Projector for Wii use?

Question

I just received a Wii and want to purchase a projector. I see that there are projectors out there for gaming but the resolution is only 480x234. I don't know too much about projectors but the resolution sounds awfully low. So I need to know what a decent resolution is so I can search for a refurbished projector that will give me a better resolution. So if anyone has any pointers or knows where I can purchase something pretty inexpensive please let me know. I can probably put out about $200 for one. Thanks

Answer 1

Projectors are great way to get a big picture for a relatively low price, but Sorry, you are not going to find a reasonable projector for $200.

The lamp alone, which have to be replaced every 2-3000 hrs, cost $250-$500 (depending on model).

You occasionally see refurbished projectors from InFocus (see their US website and store) for as low as about $400 (although I haven't see one for several months now).

A used projector isn't a good bet because you pretty much have to assume the lamp has limited time left on it.

Minimum resolution for gaming would be 640x480, while HD projectors (1280x720 and 1920x1080) are available they start at about $1000 and $2200 respectively.

Here's a good one. And yes that is enough resolution.
