IQIKU HDMI Adapter for WII with HDMI Cable

The IQIKU HDMI Adapter for Wii helps fulfill an important need for people with TVs/monitors without composite or component inputs. This is especially helpful for people with 4K monitors since many only have HDMI inputs. Colors are vibrant and the picture is relatively sharp, though not as sharp as most component-to-HDMI adapters (though those can run significantly higher, with some solutions up in the hundreds). I havent noticed any tearing or excessive artifacting in the 4-5 games I have played through the adapter so far. Audio through the HDMI is clean and sounds great on my Vizio soundbar. It does come with one major caveat, however. Unlike a component connection, which can output in widescreen, the IQIKU HDMI Adapter can only output in 4:3, so you need to be okay with pillarboxing on the left and right of the screen. For me, its a fair trade to be able to play these great games again, but I realize it may be a less acceptable option for others. If that should be the case for you, you are probably best looking for a used Wii-U since it is backward compatible with Wii games and can output natively in HDMI with a very clean sharp 16:9 image. For the rest of this, this is an affordable compromise.

these devices are a must have for anyone trying to use a Wii on a modern TV. the picture quality is noticeably sharper and the colors are worlds better, richer and fuller. the audio works as well. cant go wrong with one of these and for the price, it just cant be beat. heck this one even comes with its own hdmi cable!

My family still loves playing Wii, especially Mario Kart. I had upgraded years ago from a composite cable (where all video is handled on one cable, usually yellow, and there are red and white cables for audio) to a component cable (where red green and blue are all on separate cables, plus the two audio cables). This allows the Wii to output 480p, instead of 480i, for a slightly more stable, vivid picture. I wanted to upgrade to a new TV, and many don’t have component inputs any longer. Decided to give this adapter a shot. Plugs right into the Wii, and an HDMI cable is INCLUDED, unlike many of these from other brands. Picture quality did not suffer at all. Audio is carried over the HDMI as you’d expect, you only need the optional jack if you want to pump audio directly to a stereo system for example. Nice product and a great price!

This device doesnt change the quality if the picture, but it does make it easier to install and use.

My av cables were starting to go out and instead of replacing them I figured an upgrade would be about the same cost. This kit includes an HDMI cable and the converter which was a nice surprise. I thought the price was good with just the converter. Set up was easy. The picture needed some aspect ratio adjustment which i fixed it on the Wii settings. Everything looked super clean. Im so happy to have my Wii up and running again.

Exactly what I needed, great little adapter that lets me play my beloved WII in a world where RCA jacks are harder and harder to find on the back of a TV. Great little unit that works as expected.

Received the package yesterday and installed it today. Was very easy to install as it was pretty much plug and play. Audio and video transfer with no issues. I was first worried that I was going to need to install the audio plug to a headset or stereo but was not needed. My son is happy so Im happy. Now this freed up the RCA ports for his other plug and play games.

Easy to use and works well. Just plug it in and set Wii to 480p.

I wanted to like this adapter, and its got a lot going for it, but ultimately its not a great solution. The packaging is what youd expect (cheap box with questionable English, individually wrapped items), and the adapter is dead simple to use: its got the Wii connector on one end, and the other has a female HDMI and a female 3.5mm jack (incase youre outputting your audio to a stereo, instead of via the HDMI). Youll need to flip the Wii to widescreen and 480P (its a console from 2012 and doesnt support anything higher), but after that youre good to go. Also bonus, it comes with an HDMI cable, which is a nice surprise! The catch is, the video quality is poor. There are faded diagonal lines that stream across the screen (noticeable, but hard to photograph), and faint ghosting. Granted, its not SUPER prominent, and for as cheap of an adapter (that comes with an HDMI cable, no less!) its hard to complain, but I would be happier paying double the price for a clean image. If this adapter is going to be used on a display thats of poor quality, or by someone who doesnt care much about what it looks like, this is an excellent value.. if youre someone that values a clear picture (at least as much as you can get for 480P) then it might be best to look for a different product.

For convenience more than display quality. It will only take the Wii from 480i to 480p, but that’s not what got me to order this product. I wanted to be able to use an HDMI cable on an old system and this did the trick. The bonus HDMI cable makes this a great buy! The graphics are fine, but it’s still a Wii with limited picture quality. I would recommend this to anyone looking to play an old system on a newer TV. Happy reviewer!
