I've had this Wii since launch, and over the years I've tried using four different component cables for it (two official, two third-party), and I always get this result no matter what. The latest one I bought was from Radio Shack yesterday, and it has a switch to use it on PlayStation 2/3, Wii, and Xbox 360. It works fine with my PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360, but the Wii still gives me the same crap I got years ago. I know for sure the issue isn't the cables, since I've tried four of them over the last six or so years, on two different TVs, and I got the same problem. I've been stuck with composite forever.
I've been thinking about trying S-Video (which I've been using for almost everything else), but I never got around to it since the Wii was my brother's, and he didn't want to bother trying. He got the Wii U recently, so he transferred everything over and gave me the Wii, so I figured it was time to try and really solve this.
I figure the problem has to do with the pins on the Wii's video output, but I have no idea how to check it all out and figure out the problem. Someone on Facebook said that he thinks it's not outputting red, and that's why I'm getting this.
I don't suppose anyone here can help me with this, can they? I've been searching online for answers for years, and all I could find was a small number of people bringing it up, and getting no answers on how to fix it.
Here's some pictures of how it looks:
Please help me say goodbye to composite forever, people of NeoGAF!
