Netflix streaming for Wii

[esteban]

Please report when you get it and have had a chance to give it a trial run. I'm seriously considering dumping my current Blockbuster membership in favor of this, but I need to know the streaming quality is good enough.

I haven't noticed any stuttering with the Wii. The problem with the Wii is that it outputs crappy video (composite).

You do know the Wii does component, right? That's the way I have it hooked up.

Tell me more!

It still doesn't excuse the lack of HDMI support, though. Am I right?

That's true, but component is still better than nothing. All you need is a Wii component cable.

It's hard to go wrong with MonoPrice.

I bought mine from Best Buy when I bought my Wii. Its Nintendo Brand. Unlike HDMI, cable quality matters with component. I do what I can to avoid situations like the TZD Duo AV cable. f*cking piece of shit...or that 3rd party component cable I bought for my PSP, that thing is even worse.

How much did you pay, roughly?

I've had an overall good experience with monoprice. Of course, I received a few of crappy items over the years... but that does not discourage me at all.

I think it was $35, meaning the profit from that cable was probably more than the Wii itself.
