Does anyone please know if this is possible or will I need to purchase a connector or something?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Do you have this video connector in the back?

If so use this.

If not use an HDMI adapter plus an HDMI cable.

If this is the original Wii. You'll need a connector kit for HDMI, Composite or Component video. Depending on what your TV supports.

If this is a Wii U. It has an HDMI port.
