If you have a wii and a new tv this is definitely the way to go. This adapter is a much better alternative than getting an AV to HDMI converter.

Best For converting Wii: Alife Wii Play box

Buy on Amazon

The alife wii play box should be able to handle its purpose and duties with ease. This wii to hdmi converter adapter is only for wii and super easy to operate. It has the connection that plugs into the wii and the other end connects to a hdmi cable that plugs into the tv. It does it’s job perfectly and saves you a lot of money instead of buying a different adapter as well as a cord.

This adapter sends the picture and sound directly through the HDMI cable so you can listen to the sound over any connected sound bar you would normally use with your TV. It doesn't upscale, it doesn't do 1080P or 720P, it just spits out 480P through HDMI. It is great for converting wii to smart tv.

Best With Controller: buddies Wii Play box

Buy on Amazon

We would, of course, be remiss if we didn't mention buddies wii play box for daily purpose. This one does not need a dongle because it connects to the dongle that connects to the Wii system itself the Wii sensor bar is like a dongle the controller goes into the top long black space on the picture. The buttons and strum bar are crisp, fresh parts and are responsive and steady with a tight actuation. The neck locks into the body fine, but there is a little play and it can move back and forth a little bit.

The strum bar does not feel super flimsy and the buttons are very responsive. It is an excellent choice for PC. The button silicone in this is very stiff.

• Works well with the kids' wii and rock band
• Responsive and easy to use with a wiimote
• Good brand reputation

Best With Up To four Controllers: CIPON Wii Play box

Buy on Amazon

The cipon wii play box is suitable and reliable and fits well with your daily purpose. The feel of the controller is spectacular when you hold it. They play great, and feel just like the original controllers. The controllers handle well and buttons are comfortable to push, and work properly on the same brand gamecube adapter. It features and quality, and it supports parts to facilitate comfort even during long hours of game play.

The ergonomic feel is spot on to the original, absolutely spot on. The button layout is consistent and the rumble feels just right. They feel pretty great but a noticeable difference between it in a official game cube controller is it feels lighter.

• Works like a charm, nostalgic as ever
• Feel like nice and thick plastic, has a decent weight to it
• New and hot release

Best For Super Smash Bros: CIPON Original Controller

Buy on Amazon

If you are looking for a reliable box for your daily usage, you cannot go wrong with the cipon original controller. The pressing feel of the gamecube controller is unique and is poorly replicated here, buttons are shaped differently and have different shapes as the shell of the controller is also modified from the original nintendo design. Really these are good if you don’t need accuracy, for example if you plan on playing an RPG or Mario Party. The responsiveness of the CIPON's buttons and analog sticks are absolutely fantastic.

It has the design of this gamecube controller is based on the nintendo game cube controller,the function is basically the same. They play great and feel very mechanical/tactile. The feel of the controller is spectacular when you hold it. It has great haptic feedback and the colors are really fun.

• A great controller with no lag
• Zero input lag, sticks feel great, and it feels identical to the original
• Controllers feel great for a third party controller
• Feel like nice and thick plastic, has a decent weight to it

Best adhesion: Fpxnb Wii Play box

The fpxnb wii play box's material feels more premium than its price would suggest. Each set has 2 sensor bars in 9.4 inches and 2 stands with adhesive for you to set up the sensors.
