What kind of projector should I get for my wii?

Question

I just bought a nintendo wii not to long ago and I thought that it would be awsome to hook it up to a projector and create life size characters. I'm just not sure what kind I should get. I don't need to have amazing graphics, because the max resolution you can get on the wii is 720p, which is pretty indistinguishable from standard definition. What would be a good basic projector for my situation?

Answer 1

Wow, so much of what you said is wrong. A standard TV is 480i - a Wii cannot do any better than 480p, and you would need an Xbox 360 or PS3 to get 720p and higher.

And "720p is pretty indistinguishable from standard definition" is also just wrong. The output of a Wii might be not be much different, but there is a HUGE difference between 720p and 480i.

If you hook a Wii up to a projector it is going to look poor if you are trying to get it up to lifesize characters. Buy the cheapest projector you can find - it will satisfy what you are looking for.

Answer 2

You should get the kind that's going to have a good return policy. Because you will probably be upset with the extra large extra bad graphics, also get yourself an extender cable for your video or the Wii sensor bar one way or another something will need an extender cable.
