I think we need a thread to "introduce" our setups.
I'll go first
I initially had the Wii hooked up to my projector (Panny PTAE500e) but I had problems with my homemade battery system for the sender bar (it chews through 9v batts).
I also still haven't bought another shelf for the wii to go under the pj (and they still haven't brought out a sensor bar extension lead yet), so it's taking up residence under the Tosh at the mo'.
CRT, not plasma/lcd, but I'm fine with that as it's only temporary :grin:
and
The 4 nunchucks are just visible behind the games, and the NGC controller & its extension are hidden away behind the wiimotes.
Tip: if you've got your Wii horizontal, you'll find that the covers don't quite open comfortably to enable you to insert the ngc memory card or the controllers (esp if you have a wavebird, which has a particularly bulky reciever to plug in).
What I did was simply placed a metal washer under each of the rubber feet on the Wii. It should be just enough to raise the whole console 1-2mm, which is all you need to be able to open out those flaps properly (ooh er missus ).
Why ninty didn't simply give you v v slightly larger rubber feet, I don't know .
The wii definitely sounds better when the audio is played through a decent stereo system as opposed to integrated TV audio. Please excuse the unbelievably crap piece of furniture which the TV is sitting on, it was here in my (student) house when I moved in.
The TV is currently the weak link, however if I can get a decent PC capture card I will remove that link in favour of my PC monitor and also get rid of that awful brown cabinet! Pictures attached (wii audio output through DVD input on hifi (cambridge audio 640 A, C and T, monitor audio RS1 speakers)

Amusement and entertainment are important parts of life, anyone who says you're a loser for playing games reveals their own misconceptions and insecurities in a pathetic display of useless posturing.
Ive got a new 32'' LCD HDTv, but the Tv corner is a complete mess, wires all over the show! Better clean up before taking pics! I( want the Tv on the wall..but dont know where to buy brackets that are strong enough ...these walls dont seem strong enough.
Ive got a projector, Hitachu, which is just over a year old, but broke it when i moved it, while it was on, gutted!
Will do some pics later.
I didnt think to put the Wii sidewards..
