As a vintage gaming console, the Wii has a huge fan base with its invaluable video games. Though it is old enough, it still runs on today’s smart TV models. If you have a Wii console with you and would like to connect it to your latest LG Smart TV, we will guide you through easy steps.
Steps to Connect Your Wii to LG TV [Using Different Cables]
Being a universal gaming console, you can connect your Wii to LG TV using 6 different cables. They are,
- HDMI
- SCART
- RCA
- Component Cable
- VGA
- S-Video
1. Take any one of the connective cables and insert it into the respective port of your Wii gaming console.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to the correct port on your LG TV.
3. Now, power on your LG TV and the Wii console.
4. After this, take the remote and change the LG TV Input to the port where you have connected your Wii console.
5. Once switching to the input, you will see the Wii console screen display on your LG TV.
6. Now, using the controller, you can start playing the Wii Games on your LG TV.
Every LG TV model won’t support all 6 cable ports for connectivity. For example, the VGA port isn’t available on every LG Smart TV model. So make sure which connectivity port your LG TV has and choose the cable accordingly.
If you have a connectivity cable that your LG TV doesn’t support, then converter cables come to your rescue. You can use RCA to HDMI, RCA to SCART, VGA to HDMI, RCA to VGA, and a lot more on your LG TV to connect to the Wii console.
