Howdy guys, this is gonna be a quick one.
So anyone who follows me knows I recently ordered a Wii2HDMI from Amazon by a company called Linkcool for 10$ + Shipping and that I recently recieved in in the mail. So, how did it turn out?
After some testing and exploring of it, the answer is... well, underwhelming.
The adapter is quite obviously cheap, and I find that the internal cables must not be shielded very well because my television seems to be getting a bit of interference noise, especially in 480p mode. It's actually not a huge deal because it's very very subtle and it doesn't happen all the time, but if it continues, or gets any worse, I might look into getting a better adapter in the future.
The adapter doesn't actually upscale, that's very important. It merely converts the signal to a digital one and sends it through HDMI to the TV. That's it. And that's actually fine if you have a TV good at upscaling internally, like I do. It supports all Wii signal output types, which is pretty nice overall.
The verdict is this.
Don't buy one of these, but if you somehow get one, I don't see the harm in using it until you can get a better one.
That's what I plan to do.
