Review on Wii to HDMI Converter Adapter, Gana Wii to HDMI 1080p 720p Connector Output Video & 3.5mm Audio - Supports All Wii Display Modes by Johnathan Delgado

Black bars on both sides of the screen when using the adapter

Do not purchase this product if you want to use the full screen of your TV. I bought this product together with the console. Since I bought my Wii man I was able to use it for 2-3 days before this converter arrived. To my surprise, the Wii actually supports widescreen TVs and looks pretty good using only AV cables. As soon as this converter arrived I was excited to see how much better it would look and admittedly it does look better but I'm stuck with two black bars either side of the screen. I checked the manual to see if they fix this and they do, but the solution of changing the resolution to 480p and widescreen didn't work. I've included 3 images, the first is with the HDMI converter in 480p 4:3, the second is in 480p 16:9 and the third is back to the AV cables at 16:9. I tried putting my hand off the controller on the left side of the screen so you can see where it ends up. I am very disappointed that most TVs don't come with this adapter because I would love to use it. I would not recommend getting it.
