PORTHOLIC Wii to HDMI Adapter 1080p HDMI cable
Product description
This compact converter allows you to connect a Wii directly to modern TVs, monitors or projectors and view games in upscaled 1080p or 720p for clearer images and easier setup. It keeps the classic Wii outputs working with a simple plug and play approach and an extra 3.5mm audio jack for external speakers or headphones, so late-night sessions can stay quiet for others.
Key Points
The adapter converts the Wii's analogue video signal to HDMI output without drivers, making installation straightforward. It includes a built-in video processor that outputs at 1080p or 720p according to the TV and cable used, and it is supplied with a 3ft HDMI cable for immediate connection. Note that some consoles or displays may default to 480i, which can affect games that rely on 240p or 480i modes, and switching to 480p on the Wii may be necessary for proper HDMI output according to the manufacturer. It cannot be routed through an HDMI switch or splitter and must be connected directly to a display.

Benefits
This adapter reduces cable clutter by replacing composite leads with a single HDMI connection, which makes tidier setups and easier plugging behind consoles. The extra 3.5mm jack lets you add speakers or headphones when you do not want the TV speakers on, so you can play at any hour without disturbing others. The small housing mounts neatly at the rear of the console and does not demand much desk space, making it convenient for casual or tournament play.
Usage Recommendations
Plug the unit into the Wii AV multi-out port and connect the HDMI cable directly to your TV, monitor or projector. If you find the image looks incorrect or some titles do not display as expected, try switching the Wii display to 480p if available for better HDMI compatibility. Keep in mind the adapter does not support the Wii Mini model. For the best results, avoid chaining this adapter through HDMI switches or splitters because direct connection is required for stable audio and video output.
