Can I use this to hook up my Nintendo Wii to my TV? Does it require a power source110v? Do I need a A/B switch?

According to the description itself it can be used for gaming but isn't specific to which one. I automatically detects audio. Yes it requires a power source as it comes with an adapter you need to plug in.

You should be able to. It is audio/video in coaxial out. Yes it does use a power source

The switch does need external power. I removed the switch when it defaulted and blew out the HDMI input on my TV. I wouldn't suggest using it--period! !!!!!

You don't need a separate power supply unless you are using a multi switch. If you are using a multi switch you need a 29 volt power supply it all depends on your configuration and what receiver you are using

correct me if I'm wrong, but there is only one video input right? So only option is a video split or a y rca two inputs one out put plug into TV, but one will over power the other so you the an actual switch with the the same two inputs one out into TV. You can buy at Walmart, electronic store.

I'm using it to output from Plasma TV with only a fiber optic output (so I had to use a Toslink converter) and from my wii console so I can get TV sound and game sound to my sound bar which only has the RCA input (no fiber optic or HDMI inputs) I don't lose any sound quality at all. I can't guarantee you won't because I'm using it for a totally different use. This is a toggle..so only one circuit works at a time.

This unit will take a composite output and convert to HDMI. If your WII is composite, (red, white, and yellow outputs) then this will work if you want to deliver to the TV via HDMI

I'm also interested in the answer to this question. I bought one, but haven't opened it yet. I planned to use it in my A/V system to feed a TIVO XL (also on order), and figured I'd use a four-port switch to feed the TIVO, a PS3, an XBOX360, and Roku SoundBridge which are all in the same cabinet -- none of those come with Wireless N, and I figured I'd take care of all of them. But if a switch won't work, I'll return this and get the D-Link access point that can be configured as a bridge.

George, if you have an HD TV, just connect your Wii directly. This device is for pre-HD televisions without HDMI inputs or multiple RCA inputs.

You do not need a power supply. Don't waste your time like I did trying to find one. It works well letting me add more HDMI devices to my older TV which only has two HDMI inputs. Only complaint is that the range of the remote is pitiful, 3-4 feet.

The HDMI output that you plug into the TV provides the power. There is a jack to plug in an A/C adapter that isn't included, but I don't see where one would be needed.

Yes, plug the wii to the input and outputs to TV and projector (up to 4 devices)

I guess that depends of your receiver this only transform your rca or component wii connection to hdmi with usually to 1080 but this is not true, bit works for me, because my tv didn't have rca or component only hdmi

If you can run all the Wii inputs to the TV and then use optical out from the TV to the sound bar. This is how I have mine set up with satellite receiver, Toshiba DVD player/recorder and Amazon Fire TV box. I leave the sound bar input to TV, never have to switch it.

If you have the connection wires then yes! I have a Wii, PS2, and DvD player hooked up to mine. I sometimes switch out one to hook up the Game Cube too, but they all work great. We don't fidget as much with the wires either as we use to. Just remember you have to have another box to hook this one to that is connected to your TV.

If you found something that did work, could you please tell me what it was? I'm looking for the same thing. I want to connect a Wii (RCA) to my monitor (VGA) since I don't have a TV. I already have the audio thing worked out, but I need a configuration that works for video. Thank you!!

I don't use a power supply for mine. The needed power is supplied via the HDMI connection from the tv or other media device.

You do need power. I ran mine from a lightbulb adapter. It is WiFi for the connection to the Internet. If I remember correctly you need to set it up first via a wired connection so you can tell it your WiFi network name and password.
