Hey guys I am thinking about buying a Wii but all i have is a 24 inch 1080p computer monitor. Will I have to buy a vga cable for the Wii? My monitor has a vga input but is that what I need? Also, if so, do yall know of any good ones? All I could really find is this one on Amazon and the reviews arent that great. Thanks!

    The cheapest option is to buy a TV (Composite/RGB) in card for your computer and feed the signal into your computer, and plug your computer into the monitor.

    The expensive option is to buy a special box that converts the RGB signal to vga.

    As far as I know you can't just buy a cable, because the signals are totally different.
