Wii is hooked up to TV but it is not in color why?

Check your cable. If you are using a universal component cable, and the switch on the cable is set to video, you will get only black and white on the Wii. Flip the switch to component and your problem may vanish - mine did.

How do you hook up a Wii to a HDTV?

Using the composite cables (yellow, white, red) that are provided with the Wii. You also have the ability to purchase a component cable (red, green blue & red white) and connect them to the TV accordingly. Some newer HDTV's may not have a composite input so you may need the component cable. Some may also have the green component input double as the yellow composite input. I have seen this primarily on Samsung TV's.


How do you connect a Wii to a Samsung 7000 series Smart TV?

All 7000-series models come with two component and two composite video inputs. Using the cable that comes with the console you should be able to connect your Wii to one of the composite inputs. (These have a yellow port for video, plus a white and red port for audio. These are usually labelled as A/V or S-Video.) If you have a Wii component cable (a cable with red, green and blue connectors for video plus red and white for audio) this can be connected to the component port. The Wii does not support HDMI.
