    Hardware Using Wii on PC Monitor

    Some monitors don't have component input, this is a solution for those of us who don't have the option of getting component input with a monitor. As far as I can tell VGA and Component are exactly the same the only difference is that the connectors are different. Correct me if i'm wrong please!

    Hardware Using Wii on PC Monitor

    Just FYI I ordered my vdigi cable and they confirmed the order the same day. Cable arrived in my GPO box in about eight working days and that's all the way from China to Australia which I thought was a fairly speedy delivery. The cable feels very sturdy like it's made out of rubber or something?

    Hardware Using Wii on PC Monitor

    I ordered a vdigi cable and it works fine with my PAL aussie wii and my 20" samsung SyncMaster 206bw. However I wasn't blown away by the picture quality? is this something to do with the vdigi cable and my monitor having a crappy upscaller or the cable being crap at transcoding? sure beats using...

    Wii #0227 - Forever Blue (Japan)

    This game does look good. I always like games with an underwater theme, anybody remember archimedean dynasty or aquanox? okay so maybe this game isn't like them at all but open-ended underwater diving looks totally kick ass to me. Can't wait for an Australian release.

    Wii E3 secret revealed??

    I think what Linkiboy was trying to say is that Nintendo will/might have tightly integrated hardware and software that complements each other. Like Linkiboy was saying, Apple integrates/optimizes Mac OS X for intel and ppc architectures specifically. For example the Wii might turn out like the...

    Gaming How many think it is SAD that the best graphics...

    I haven't owned a console for a very long time haha, I was orignally a PCee/Mac only gamer. The whole reason I brought the Wii was the cheap price and the graphics (no joke here ). The thing with the Wii is that the graphics/games look and feel like a live-motion comic book. I totally love...

    Hacking first soldering attempt ever

    The pads on the Wii are flat. In the soldering guide I have been reading most of the examples have a wire sticking out from a PCB. How do I go about soldering these flat pads and getting a nice volcanus shaped solder? I am doing a lot of practice on an older router which has plenty of flat tiny...

    Hacking Multimeter testing

    This will sound rather simple but how do I tell if a signal/piece of wire is working correctly. i.e. I have tinned both ends of a wire with solder and want to test how much resistance etc. their is. Can a multimeter do this for me?
