Wii and TV/SkyHD cable question

[slewis1972]

Hi

I am looking at getting a Wii this week and need to now what is the standard Wii > TV cable that comes with the Wii in the UK?

Reason why I ask is that I have a Sky HD box which is 5m from my plamsa tv. I was thinking if I hooked the wii upto that, what sort of picture would I get. The Sky HD box is connected to the Plasma by a scart and a hdmi cable.

Or can I get a 5m Wii> Scart/connector cable?

Many Thanks

Scott

do you mean plug the wii into the sky box? and then just get the signal feed from the same source input on the tv?

i dont see a reason why not, providing your sky box supports it, and has a spare place to plug in.

as standard the wii ships with a composite cable (yellow, red, white) however there is a scart connector that can go on the end of that, or there is an official scart cable which may give a slight increase in quality.

also if you could plug directly into your hd tv, then there is the option of a component cable...

unfortunately i dont know the lengths of the cable in any case....
