To get the highest quality video from an unmodified Wii, you can use component video cables as they'll support 240p, 480i and 480p (provided your display supports all three resolutions). There also exists a VGA output mod and two intensive mods to add an HDMI port and improve the stock component video quality. You may see Wii2HDMI dongles out there, they negatively affect the video signal in their conversion of component to HDMI and it's recommended to avoid them.

Wii Video Options
| Mod Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Wii Dual | Upgrades the output of the component video signal AND adds RGB output in all resolutions |
| Wii HDMI | Adds HDMI output to the console. |
| Wii VGA Mod | Aurelio on the BitBuilt forums figured out how to get a VGA signal from the Wii. This requires a softmod, as well as a hardware mod to connect RGBHV to the AVE-RVL chip. |
