Hook up Wii to cable only TV?
I have an old TV that only has cable hook up. I'd like to hook a Wii up to it for my grandkids when they come over. Is there any kind of adapter that you can plug the red, white and yellow into that attaches to the cable plug on the TV? If so what is it called so I'll know what to ask for or search for online.

Yes, it's called an RF modulator.
You can get them at radioshack, or heck, probably walmart, for about 30 bucks. The back of them looks like this:

So you'd take the cable connection that your tv gets it's signal from, and connect that to the "ANT IN", then connect a short cable from the "to tv" connector... to the tv, and finally, connect the wii as you normally would, matching red white and yellow connectors.

Yes, you'll want a RF modulator. It inputs composite video (or S-video) and combines it with audio that it sends to channel 3 or 4 when hooked up to the coaxial cable/antenna input. Costs about $20.

yep. Why does no longer it. you do no longer use cable television as a fashion to play your wii. as long as you have all the relationship wires and your television on your room has all the right connections to it then that's going to artwork advantageous.
