#145001 Possible to use HDMI and Standard cables together?

Posted by hubang on 07 December 2012 - 10:07 AM in Wii U Hardware Help

I know this was possible on PS3 but was wandering (have looked in settings but no luck yet) to use the HDMI for just video and the standard red and white cables for just the audio? BTW reason i ask is bc i use a PC monitor to play Wii U in my room and my surround sound doesnt have hdmi (its a bit dated).

Not exactly what you want but a possible solution for you:

Yeah, no. This would also help me, as I have an earlier (but fantastic, they dont build em like they used too.) plasma, and it has dvi instead of hdmi (which doesnt carry audio, only video). So it would ve great for me, too.

We need similar solutions, a
15-30 dollar connector with analog audio outs. For me, hdmi to dvi, for you, hdmi to hdmi.

3Dude, if your plasma has component and you're willing to go that route, there's always this:

#145013 Possible to use HDMI and Standard cables together?

Well im already using the wiis component cables.

I do want the digital video provided by hdmi/dvi, its just, dvi only carries video, not sound.

Yeah I figured as much; sadly I couldn't find an HDMI to DVI converter with an analog RCAs for ya, at least through Monoprice anyways. I've seen ones on other sites with Toslink, but they are REALLY expensive at over $200. If anything comes up I'll definitely keep you posted.

Only thing on your list I would say is a no go is 007. Figured we were talking of games currently out due to him asking of recommendations. (Sort of counts though, so close, but so far ;P)
http://www.target.co...erm=007 Legends 007 is out the 11th of this month.

As far as pricing goes, it is kind of hard to justify purchasing on the Wii U for a higher price on that note. Being as you can get it for like 42.50 plus 3.99 shipping on Amazon for the PS3. That or get it on sell via Steam sometime on a PC. (46.49 is a grand price verse say the Wii U price 59.99). Kind of sad when older games are released onto another platform to get a higher price tag. Specially with all these horrible ports being released these days (On any platform).

For some reason 007 Legends is showing as available and in stock for multiple stores in Canada. Perhaps not elsewhere?

Recommendation-wise, I haven't played any of them personally on the Wii U with the exception of Trine 2 (which is fantastic).

I would agree that the pricing on ports is unfortunate, not to mention size of community (and thus matchmaking). However, a smaller community can result in more notoriety!

Nintendo is an affiliate, but I don't think posting on here speaking to them in the second person will make a difference. Why don't you start a petition? Dark Souls has a huge fanatical following and From Software is very loyal to its fans.

There's also Tekken Tag Tournament 2, FIFA, Madden, and 007 Legends, but those are all available for your other systems. There might be some others too that I don't know about.

No Flash.

For example, $59.99 = 599 points.

#157570 two harddrives recognized and formatted and then not recognized

Posted by hubang on 08 January 2013 - 10:07 AM in Wii U Hardware Help

I recall reading that some drives may have compatibility issues. I also recall that only the rear USB ports should be used for drives. Maybe the size of your drives? 2TB is the cap for now.

Had this occur too. The fix might be different for each TV manufacturer but it seems to be usually an Aspect Ratio/Size problem in the TV settings. On my Toshiba I had to change it to "Native".

#143654 Many Controller / Console "lost connection" errors

Posted by hubang on 04 December 2012 - 05:34 PM in Wii U Hardware

I googled your scenario and didn't find a solution to your problem. Only thing I can think of is that I believe the gamepad operates on the 802.11n 5GHz frequency; perhaps there is something interfering with that? Outside of that, you may have to contact Nintendo Support.
