Wii to laptop?

boardsofdublin · 2009-04-09 12:51:28

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows if there is a system that can hook a nintendo wii to a laptop out there that works? I figure that if you can watch telly on a pc/laptop you should be able to hook a wii up to a laptop as well. Thanks in advance! BoD

You could use a TV tuner card, provided you make sure it has the right inputs . They are available in various forms, USB, Expresscard etc.

Unfortunately, I think there's a decent amount of latency with most of those (ie a delay because of the processing involved), so they're not going to be much good for gaming.
