It’s obvious to anyone that the Wii doesn’t have the same graphical power of the Xbox 360 or the PS3, and chances are that a HD Wii console will never happen. But maybe this is the next best thing.
Wii HDMI Upscaler
This (above) is the VD-W3 Wii HDMI Upscaler Processor from Vidigi Electronics, but what does it do? Well, the device plugs into the video-out port on your Wii and converts the Standard Definition signal into a High Definition one up to 1080p via HDMI.

Don't expect miracles, though. It won't turn Mario Kart Wii into Forza Motorsport 3 but it could certainly make Wii games look a bit sharper on HD TV’s. The unit costs $75 (about £50) although, unsurprisingly, it's currently sold out.
