Hi,

I am just about to order a Wii, however I have thought of a minor issue with my instalation. Having not looked into the details of connecting a Wii to my TV, I have already run a SCART cable inside my wall, as I wanted the TV wall mounted with all cables chaneled (IE the SCART is already connected to my TV with the other SCART connection coming out of the wall) I have now discovered that to connect the Wii using SCART a particular cable has to be bought. How will I get round this problem? I am thinking either a Multi-SCART, with the SCART from the TV coming out, and connectiong the Wii either by the proper SCART or the 3-pin (red, yellow, white) addapter. Will this work, and do the Multi-SCARTS loose any signal or quality?

Hope this aint that complicated, and I have explained my problem well enough.

Any help much appreciated.

CHEERS

Use the cable and scart block supplied with your Wii, I don't think you will be able to connect a proper scart lead to it mate.
