Wii will Wii will rock you! :)

I cant wait to get my Wii, PS3 can kiss my ass. My PC is my graphical gaming platform. I like Nintendo systems because Zelda is a great series of games. So what if it doesnt have the power of PS3 or 360. Its all about gameplay. IMO, the GC had the better graphics of the last gen of consoles. The first Xbox had crap games, the PS2 had some good games but the graphics kinda blow and the load times on the PS2 is excruciatingly slloooowwww. The GC loaded pretty fast IMO.

Does the LCD monitor have a component, composite, or svideo input? If not (most likely), then no.

it has s-video and composite (the yellow rca cable thing). i was wondering more about the controls than actually being able to display picture.

The controls are based on the sensor bar, so it's all good.

It uses a sensor bar so itll be fine.
