Video to VGA

I bought a video to VGA converter on eBay last month. It had finally arrived. I stole my sister’s monitor for the test. I connecting my Wii video cables to the box and output the VGA to the monitor. The monitor also had speakers so I was able to connect the sound to it as well.

It works but the quality of display is so-so. The monitor has maximum resolution of 1280×1024 but the converter only outputs 1024×768. I’m able to play games on it fine. The screen is just a bit small. Well, at least it’s better than bringing the 50lb spare TV up to my room. Maybe I’ll invest in a larger monitor later. I also want to try out component output with the Wii.
